A horizontal split case pump is a specific type of centrifugal pump with a casing that has two separate chambers. In this way, horizontal split case pumps differ from end suction and inline pumps, which have the discharge nozzle, suction nozzle, and casing all in a single chamber. At Rapid Pump & Meter Service Co. and Machinery Services Co., we offer the Aurora Horizontal Split Case Pump (Item 1017), which is ideal for various clear and wastewater industrial applications.
Design of Horizontal Split Case Pumps
Horizontal centrifugal split case pumps have the impeller shaft located in between two bearings, and the discharge and suction nozzles positioned side by side in the bottom half of the casing.
The simple yet durable design of these pumps make them ideal for higher flow applications, as they reduce thrust loads and enable operations for a wide range of capacities. With proper use, these horizontal split case pumps produce minimal consumption of power, prolonged service life, and small maintenance costs.

- Flows from 250 to 5000 GPM
- UL Listed/FM Approved/NFPA-20 Design
- Pressures from 40 to 490 PSI

Applications of Horizontal Split Case Pumps
These pumps are often used to convey clear water and unsaturated wastewater (low viscosity liquids) from industrial process environments at average heads. They may be used for applications involving higher flow rates that are not suitable for end suction pumps, such as fire pumps, plant make-up water, portable water distribution, cooling water, pipelines, and other process flows that consists of relatively thin fluids.
