SYKES Group will showcase its range of Xtra High Head pumps at the Kalgoorlie Goldfields Mining Expo (GME) in October 2008.
According to the company, the pumps provide optimal shaft stiffness for trouble free operation.
Pumps with low shaft stiffness ratios are able to perform multiple duties at varied speeds, and are said to be more durable and tolerant.
According to the company, this makes the pumps suitable for the varied applications and duties of mine sites.
The XH80 model has a ratio of 0.39, the XH100 has a ratio of 0.25 and the XH150 ratio is 0.28.
