KSB CPKN – Versatile, cost-effective pumps for the chemical industries

Highly modular design enables optimized solutions for the most demanding applications

KSB Canada introduces the CPKN family of pumps aimed at meeting the special needs of chemical and petrochemical industries. Based on a standardized, highly modular design, these pumps thrive in a wide range of demanding applications, especially the smooth and efficient transport of corrosive, gaseous or temperature-sensitive liquids.


Optional features include jacketed casings (to enable heating or cooling of pump internals), special impellers to handle solids-bearing or gaseous liquids, a variety of high-performance mechanical seals, and a wide range of corrosion resistant materials, up to and including nickel and titanium alloys.  While CPKN pumps are amazingly versatile they are also very cost effective, thanks to the standardized, modular architecture. Maintenance costs are minimized by the use of highly efficient seals, rugged, long-lasting bearings and maintenance  friendly layout. These pumps are available in a wide range of sizes, with capacities as high as 4150 m3/hr (18,200 USGPM) and heads of up to 185 metres. Operating temperatures of suitably configured pumps can range from -40°C to 400°C.

“The CPKN family is the most flexible standardized range of process pumps in the industry” comments Mike Blundell, President of KSB Pumps in Canada . “They have provided excellent service in the petrochemical and chemical industries, along with biofuels, food processing, seawater desalination and the energy industries.”
