Layne Bowler : Vertical Lineshaft Turbine

When you need continuous heavy duty operation.

The Layne Bowler Vertical Turbine Pumps have three main parts: the head assembly, column assembly and the pump bowl assembly. The shaft and column assembly allows for a connection between the head and pump bowls. The line shaft transfers the power from the motor to the impellers and the column carries the water to the surface.

Line shaft's on a turbine pump can be water lubricated or oil lubricated.

Oil-lubricated pumps have an enclosed tube in which oil is lubricating the bearings.
Water-lubricated pumps have an open shaft.

The bearings are lubricated by the pumped water, therefore if there is a possibility of fine sand being pumped, select the oil lubricated pump because it will keep the sand out of the bearings. If the water is for domestic or livestock use, it must be free of oil and a water-lubricated pump must be used.
