Pumps Featuring L/D Design
Industry Standard
for Reliability
Exclusive Features
Heavy-Duty Construction
Designed around the seal

and bearings where 90% of
failures occur
Heavy-duty shaft, bearings, seals

and housing design means this
pump is built for reliability in the
most extreme environments
Offers the widest window of

operation off the BEP of any
conventional centrifugal pump
High-strength, low maintenance

line of innovative process pumps
Designed specifically for

the toughest, most extreme
environments
Designed to maximize system

reliability stronger, more
vibration-resistant pump
Sets the industry standard for

high-quality and durability
Heavy-duty, solid, low deflection

shaft prevents common vibration
damage and greater stability at
the seal area to improve seal life
Heavy-duty bearings offer greater

load capacity and extend bearing life
System One Labyrinth Seals

provide non-wearing lifetime
protection for radial and
thrust bearings

Blackmer System One Performance Assurance

Five Year Power End Performance Assurance Should any System
One power end component fail within 5 years of the original
installation, including bearings or shafts that have fractured, a free
replacement component will be provided. This offer is limited to a
claim for one of each component per power end.*
after the sale of the pump and seal, a spare parts kit (with materials
the same as the original seal) will be provided at no charge.
Program includes power end conversions that were purchased
with Blackmer System One back cover conversions. Limit of one
seal claim per application.*
One Year Mechanical Seal Performance Assurance Should any

factory supplied and installed mechanical seal fail within one year
*See current Blackmer System One Warranty, Form 001-002, for full product
warranty details including exclusions and limitations of liability.
