Crank Mechanism
Peroni Titano Range
Reciprocating pumps to API 674
The TITANO series are designed and manufactured according to API 674 and ASME standards and cover the medium power range of up to 600 kW.
The TITANO series consists of 4 pump sizes in triplex execution. The largest pump of the series (model 31.40) is manufactured also in quintuplex (model 31.40/Q) and septuplex (model 31.40/S) execution, where the same components of the triplex model are used.
All models are proven designs to guarantee reliable service, minimize maintenance requirements and minimise operating costs.
The TITANO pumps series is particularly suitable for process applications, where heavy operating conditions are met by the conservatively sized crankmechanism.
In the triplex pumps the crankshaft is supported by two roller bearings while in the case of the quintuplex or septuplex pumps intermediate bearings are provided.
TITANO series pumps normally do not require an auxiliary lubrication system, as the standard execution foresees a simple and safe hydrodynamic lubrication that allows high reliability with low operating costs.
Liquid end
Widely proven hydraulics ensure reliable operation at high pressure, high or low temperature and on toxic, corrosive, explosive applications and abrasive fluids, liquefied gases and slurries.
The standard liquid end of TITANO pumps consists of a manifold provided with flanged connections and one independent valve body for each plunger.
This construction allows for easy maintenance, without disconnecting the suction and discharge lines.
The valve bodies (complete with valves and seats) and the hydraulic cylinders (complete with stuffing box packings and plungers) can be pre-assembled at the workshop minimizing on site work and downtime of the pump during replacement.
Independent valve bodies are also particularly suitable for applications where significant temperature fluctuations are expected, as the consequent thermal expansions are symmetrically distributed and absorbed by each single body.
Valves and sealings
Various types of valves are available to meet available NPSH conditions and to suit the characteristics of different fluids, including solids content.
Sealing systems are designed according to the physical characteristics of the fluid and the risk of contact with the atmosphere.
