Goulds 3600
Heavy Duty Multi-Stage Pumps
Designed for High-Head/
High Capacity Services
The 3600 is an advanced design with a
proven operating history. Goulds 3600 is
axially split, with many enhanced features
that make it an extremely reliable, high
performance pump well suited to a wide
range of services in oil production,
refining, pipeline, power generation,
descaling and mine dewatering services.
Design features
Axially Split Casing For ease of maintenance.
Dual Volute Design Balances hydraulic radial thrust at each
stage for extended seal/bearing life.
Integral Compact Crossovers Minimize flow losses,
maximize efficiency.
Heavy Duty Single Row Bolting Prevents distortion and chance
of interstage leakage.
Precision Impellers Individually balanced for
smooth operation.
Opposed Impeller Arrangement Provides permanent axial
hydraulic balance.
API-610/ISO 13709 Compliance is Available
Services
API pump for refineries, injection offshore platforms,
remote pipeline, boiler feed in mid-range cogeneration,
descaling, mine dewatering, process transfer.
Goulds 3600
Serviceability
Cartridge type mechanical seals for
ease of assembly, proper installation.
Single row bolting with stud
nuts located on upper
half for easy
accessibility.
Entire rotating
assembly can
be removed for
maintenance
without disturbing
suction/discharge
piping.
Single row
bolting
simplifies
disassembly/
reassembly.
Design/Analysis Capabilities
Casing pressure capability and structural design developed and refined
using advanced finite element analysis. Goulds engineering staff is fully
equipped to perform the rotor lateral response analyses and residual
unbalance checks necessary to assure stable operation and low
vibration levels. Thermal transient analysis using finite element models
used to determine allowable casing temperature rise and assure
mechanical reliability. Hydraulic designs developed using dynamic flow
models assure stable performance with consistent, high efficiency levels.

Shaft Sealing
and Seal
Chambers
The Model 3600 can
be sealed either by
soft packing or
mechanical seals. Seal chambers meet API-610/ISO 13709
dimensional requirements, and accept a wide range of cartridge
type mechanical seals, including API 682/ ISO 21049. Both seal
chambers and stuffing boxes can be furnished with cooling jackets.
