V Series names Coal Prep, Effluent Handling, Floor Pumps and Sump Pumps — the ash-pit/floor-sump duty inside a coal or FGD plant. Real vendor caveat preserved: V Series has no published 'working pressures to' spec, recorded as not published rather than guessed. The no-submerged-bearings/seals design is why this architecture survives an ash sump where a conventional vertical pump's submerged seal is the failure point.

Real Specifications
| V Series discharge/head/flow | Discharge 1-1/2"-10", head max 160 ft, flow max 4,500 gpm | schurco-slurry.md |
| V Series working pressure | Not published by the vendor for this series (unlike the other 6 Schurco series) | schurco-slurry.md |
| V Series bearing/seal design | Fully cantilevered — no submerged bearings, seals, or packing; double-suction impeller eliminates shaft seals and reduces thrust load | schurco-slurry.md |
| V Series named applications | Vendor names Coal Prep, Effluent Handling, Floor Pumps and Sump Pumps directly | schurco-slurry.md |
V Series' no-submerged-bearings/seals/packing design is a direct response to the failure mode a conventional vertical pump's submerged seal creates in an ash-pit or FGD floor sump — the seal simply isn't there to fail.
An ash-pit floor sump is exactly the environment a submerged mechanical seal fails fastest in — V Series' fully cantilevered, no-submerged-bearings design removes that failure point structurally, which is why it's named for floor pumps and sump duty specifically, not general slurry transport.

FAQ
Is Vertical Cantilever Slurry Pump used in FGD / Ash Handling / Coal Preparation / Slag Granulation / Heavy Media?
V Series names Coal Prep, Effluent Handling, Floor Pumps and Sump Pumps — the ash-pit/floor-sump duty inside a coal or FGD plant. Real vendor caveat preserved: V Series has no published 'working pressures to' spec, recorded as not published rather than guessed. The no-submerged-bearings/seals design is why this architecture survives an ash sump where a conventional vertical pump's submerged seal is the failure point. This is strong evidence.
