API OH2 Horizontal API Pump

The API OH2 horizontal overhung pump is the most widely used API 610 pump for general refinery and light chemical processing. As a versatile industrial API pump, it is engineered for stable continuous-flow transfer of clean and slightly contaminated hydrocarbon media, including crude oil, diesel, and common chemical solvents. Operating under medium pressure and temperature conditions, this series supports working temperatures ranging from -20°C to 180°C and design pressure up to 2.5 MPa. FEIYUE provides flexible material configurations such as cast iron, carbon steel, and 304 stainless steel to adapt to conventional petrochemical environments. For standard non-corrosive process fluid delivery, the API OH2 pump delivers reliable hydraulic efficiency and low maintenance cost, making it a cost-effective solution for most general process requirements.

API BB2 Between-Bearing API Pump

The API BB2 pump is a heavy-duty between-bearing API petrochemical pump designed for rigorous refinery and petrochemical loop systems. Different from general-purpose API pump models, the BB2 structure features double-supported impellers and enhanced shaft stability, which enables long-term uninterrupted operation under fluctuating process loads. It is commonly applied for transferring refined oil products, light oil fractions, and moderately corrosive chemical fluids. Its working temperature covers -40°C to 200°C, and the maximum working pressure reaches 4.0 MPa. Material options include alloy steel and duplex stainless steel for anti-corrosion and high-temperature resistance. As a core API 610 pump model, the BB2 series guarantees zero leakage and stable performance in critical petrochemical production lines.

API BB4 Multistage API Pump

The API BB4 vertical multistage API petrochemical pump is specially developed for high-head, high-pressure process transportation in petrochemical plants and oil depots. This type of industrial API pump is suitable for conveying clean medium and low-viscosity hydrocarbon fluids, including pipeline crude oil transmission and process water circulation. With a multistage pressurization structure, the BB4 pump can achieve ultra-high lift with working pressure up to 10.0 MPa, while the applicable temperature range remains -20°C to 160°C. To cope with high-pressure and long-distance transportation scenarios, FEIYUE equips the BB4 API 610 pump with high-strength carbon steel and duplex steel materials, effectively avoiding abrasion and pressure deformation under continuous heavy-duty operation.

API BB5 High-Pressure Multistage API Pump

The API BB5 pump is the highest-grade high-pressure API 610 pump in our product lineup, mainly serving boiler feed, high-pressure pipeline transportation, and extreme-condition petrochemical processes. As a professional heavy-duty API petrochemical pump, it handles pure water, high-temperature medium oil, and low-corrosive industrial solvents under severe working conditions. Its working temperature can reach up to 220°C, and the maximum system pressure exceeds 16.0 MPa. To ensure safety and durability under extreme pressure, we adopt integral forged steel and premium duplex stainless steel materials for key components. For energy and petrochemical enterprises that require 24/7 continuous operation, this high-performance API pump provides stable, safe, and low-failure process fluid transportation capabilities.
