ROUNDUP : BULK PLANT
GRISWOLD 811 SERIES CENTRIFUGAL PUMPS Griswold™ 811 Series ANSI Centrifugal Pumps with a 17-inch impeller are ideal for high capacity transfer within large bulk storage operations . The 811 ANSI Series pumps meet the needs of bulk storage operators because they feature open impellers with two times the wear area of a closed design , which optimizes the performance of the pump ’ s open impeller and allows renewable performance . Since casings of the 811 Series pumps can be constructed of a wide choice of materials , including ductile iron , 316 stainless steel , CD4MCu and alloy 20 , they are able to meet a wide array of transfer applications found within bulk storage operations , such as petroleum , biofuels , chemicals and vegetable oils — to name a few .
