York Fluid Controls Ltd. supplies durable fluid-handling solutions from Gorman-Rupp, including their robust 10 Series Solids Handling Pumps. Engineered specifically for challenging applications involving slurries, corrosive liquids, and solid-laden fluids, these pumps offer multiple metallurgy options and seal configurations to meet diverse industrial needs.
The 10 Series stands out for its simplified maintenance design, featuring few moving parts and an easily removable cover plate that enables quick clog clearance without specialized tools or pipe disassembly. Available in six sizes ranging from 40 mm to 300 mm, the pumps are constructed from durable materials including bronze, cast iron, CD4MCu, and stainless steel to withstand harsh operating conditions. Performance specifications include a maximum capacity of 423 litres per second, 40 metres of head, 76 mm solids handling capability, and a 100°C temperature limit.
A key design element is the two-vane, semi-open impeller that efficiently processes solids up to 76 mm in diameter. The impeller’s pump-out vanes prevent material buildup behind the impeller, reducing seal and bearing wear to extend service life. The removable cover plate provides technicians with direct access to internal components including the impeller, seal, and wear plate for inspection and maintenance.
The series offers multiple sealing options to suit different applications, from double mechanical grease-lubricated seals to self-lubricated mechanical seals and Gorman-Rupp’s proprietary tungsten titanium carbide double-floating, self-aligning oil-lubricated seals. Fluorocarbon and PTFE elastomers are also available. The replaceable wear plate design eliminates the need for expensive casting replacements. These versatile pumps can be configured as standalone units or paired with electric motors through flex-coupling or V-belt drives, and are also compatible with gasoline or diesel engine power.
York Fluid Controls Ltd., established in 1960, has built a reputation as a leading Canadian distributor of fluid transfer and process equipment.
