2800 Horizontal Split-Case Pumps
Installation, Operation and Maintenance
Your Fairbanks Nijhuis™ 2800 is a split-case pump with the casing split on the horizontal centerline. This new
compact design, with a shorter bearing span, has less deflection under hydraulic load, which results in less wear
on the sleeves, bearings and packing. It is ideally suited for appications such as water systems, boosters, liquid
transfer, irrigation and fire protection systems. These pumps are available with a variety of options, including
mechanical seals, impeller wear rings, oil lubricated and water cooled bearings.
