Product Description
Pompetravaini TCD Thermal Oil Pumps
The Pompetravaini TCD Thermal Oil Pumps are single-stage centrifugal pumps with closed impellers, developed specifically for high-temperature thermal-fluid applications. Standard configurations handle thermal fluids up to 320°C without requiring a special external cooling system.
Moreover, the actively cooled XT version handles diathermic fluids up to 365°C. Consequently, the TCD Series suits demanding industrial heating, circulation and heat-transfer systems across India.
TCD High-Temperature Centrifugal Pump Design
The TCD thermal-fluid pump uses a specialised heat-barrier chamber between the pump casing and impeller. Therefore, much of the heat from the pumped liquid is prevented from reaching the bearing and mechanical-seal area.
In addition, cooling fins on the bearing frame dissipate residual heat. As a result, suitable configurations can use a relatively simple single mechanical seal even in demanding high-temperature applications.
Key Features and Benefits
The Pompetravaini TCD Thermal Oil Pumps provide:
- Single-stage centrifugal construction
- Closed hydraulic impeller
- Thermal-fluid capability up to 320°C
- XT version for temperatures up to 365°C
- Capacity up to 350 m³/h
- Head up to 10 bar
- Special heat-barrier chamber
- Finned bearing frame for heat dissipation
- Single mechanical-seal arrangement
- Oversized C3-series ball bearings
- Oil-lubricated bearing system
- Ductile-iron or AISI 316 stainless-steel construction
- ISO 2858 and DIN 24256 dimensions
- TCD/SP version for vegetable oils
Together, these features support reliable circulation of high-temperature process fluids.
Thermal-Oil Pump Heat Management
Thermal oil transfers significant heat into the pump casing, shaft, seal and bearings. Therefore, effective heat management is essential.
The Travaini TCD pump reduces heat migration through its dedicated heat-barrier chamber. Meanwhile, the finned bearing frame helps release remaining heat into the surrounding air.
Consequently, the Pompetravaini TCD Thermal Oil Pumps can support demanding thermal-fluid systems while helping protect bearings and seals from excessive temperature exposure.
TCD XT Actively Cooled Version
The standard TCD range handles thermal fluids up to 320°C. Alternatively, the TCD XT version incorporates active cooling for process temperatures up to 365°C.
Therefore, the XT high-temperature pump suits particularly demanding diathermic-fluid duties. However, cooling requirements and operating limits should be confirmed for the selected model.
Bearings and Construction Materials
The rotating assembly uses oversized C3-series ball bearings with medium-viscosity oil lubrication. As a result, the bearing system supports demanding thermal operation when correctly maintained.
The TCD thermal-oil pump is available in:
- Ductile iron for compatible thermal oils and general heating duties
- AISI 316 stainless steel for selected corrosive, vegetable-oil and process-fluid applications
However, construction material must always match the fluid composition and operating temperature.
TCD/SP Vegetable-Oil Pump
The TCD/SP version is designed for vegetable-oil applications. It incorporates an intermediate chamber connected to a reservoir containing oil compatible with the pumped product.
Consequently, the arrangement helps limit air entry if the mechanical seal fails while also separating the bearing lubrication system from the process liquid.
Therefore, suitable TCD/SP configurations may support edible-oil and food-processing duties.
ISO-Standard Pump Dimensions
The Pompetravaini TCD Thermal Oil Pumps follow ISO 2858 and DIN 24256 dimensional standards. In addition, their dimensions correspond with related TCH Series models.
As a result, they may simplify integration into compatible ISO-standard installations. Nevertheless, engineers should verify the baseplate, coupling, motor, flanges and hydraulic operating point before replacement.
TCD Pump Performance Range
The complete series provides:
- Maximum capacity: Up to 350 m³/h
- Maximum head: Up to 10 bar
- Standard temperature: Up to 320°C
- XT temperature: Up to 365°C
- Hydraulic arrangement: Single-stage
- Impeller type: Closed impeller
However, these are series-wide limits. Therefore, the exact operating point must be selected from model-specific performance data.
Pompetravaini TCD Applications in India
The TCD thermal-oil pump range may support:
- Thermal-oil heating systems
- Industrial heat-transfer circuits
- Chemical and petrochemical processing
- Asphalt and bitumen plants
- Textile-processing machinery
- Plastic and rubber manufacturing
- Industrial ovens and dryers
- Food-production heating systems
- Vegetable-oil processing
- Solar thermal systems
- High-temperature circulation skids
For example, ductile-iron configurations may suit compatible closed-loop thermal-oil systems. Alternatively, AISI 316 stainless steel may be appropriate for selected corrosive or food-related fluids.
Selecting the Correct Travaini TCD Pump
Correct selection depends on:
- Required flow and total head
- Thermal-fluid type
- Operating temperature
- Viscosity and specific gravity
- Construction material
- Mechanical-seal arrangement
- Cooling requirements
- Suction conditions
- Motor speed and power
Therefore, the Pompetravaini TCD Thermal Oil Pumps should be selected around the complete hydraulic and temperature duty. Otherwise, excessive temperature, unsuitable materials or poor suction conditions may reduce pump, seal and bearing life.
