Performance characteristics
Performance is intermediate between an axial and centrifugal of the same impeller diameter. A non-stalling characteristic is achieved and the power/flowrate curve is non-overloading. Pressures up to 2 kPa are possible with standard construction. A typical performance curve is shown in Figure 1.99.
