It consists of four main components: impeller, casing, suction pipe, and delivery pipe. The rotating action of the impeller is responsible for changing the energy of the continuously flowing seawater. Attributes: • Rotation is counterclockwise • Runs at high speed and hence can be coupled to the prime mover • Weight per unit discharge is less Applications: An Auxiliary Pump is attached to the front housing, mostly used in Cat 3406E, C-15, C15, and C18 Engine (Piston), C18, and G3516C Generator Set.
