Southern Cross PSJ Series

Southern Cross PSJ Series

Southern Cross PSJ Series

(OP)
I have a problem when replacing a very old Southern Cross Pump PSJ Series. The old pump has a very special impeller as attached.

Anyone can help me to give more information of attached impeller, and specifically of Southern Cross PSJ Series?

RE: Southern Cross PSJ Series

ione, One step ahead of me. If unavailable as a spare you could very easily fabricate one from steel, I would use stainless steel - no corrosion. If you do fabricate one make sure you also plug-weld each blade from the back - thru impeller shroud. In my early pump days I fabricated an impeller and only fillet welded the blades on the front of the shroud - guess what hapend some years down the track - the welds were gradually erroded / corroded  away until one of the blades failed - reasonable damage done but a lesson learnt.
