No One has Provided Liquefied Gas
Pumps Longer than Smith

Smith Precision Products Company was started in 1938


by Reuben Stanley Smith and was the first company to
provide pumps specifically for liquefied gas transfer. As
a remarkable American inventor, Reuben focused on
quality and provided innovative designs that would
stand the test of time. He believed that when a
customer encountered a problem, qualities such as
understanding and compassion were important in
finding a satisfactory solution.

Reuben’s son, Lawrence, joined the company in 1945


and worked hard to uphold his father’s values and re-
engineer the original product line. By the end of the
1950s, the company developed a fairly complete
product line and became involved in overseas markets.
Severe duty service options were added in the 1960s,
with flexible drive couplings and Y-type strainers to First patent issued for a mechanical seal used in a
liquefied gas pump. Within seven years, most pumps
follow. were using mechanical seals.

Lawrence’s three sons joined the company


in the 1970s and continued to follow in the
family’s footsteps. They placed more
emphasis on customer service and
achieving top certifications. As a result, the
company put forward exceptional new
designs and major improvements to the
existing product line. Today, third and
fourth generation Smiths are striving to
improve and strengthen the company’s
Installation of the 4X pump, Rueben Smith’s first design, 1938 ability to provide an even better level of
service.
Our mission is to insure the continuation of a notable legacy–one built on Reuben’s
values of ethics, integrity, and compassion. If this simple philosophy is maintained,
the rest is relatively easy.

Bearings
These bearings support the
entire length of the drive shaft. Superseal Mechanical Shaft
Balanced Load Balanced loading eliminates the Seal Assembly
Configuration need for a duplicate ball bearing The Superseal assembly is built as a kit
Minimizes gear tooth contact and at the end of the drive shaft and onto the pump drive shaft. This allows
eliminates constant casing contact, a second mechanical seal for dynamic pressure test before
which generates heat. Allows for assembly into pump or when supplied as
smooth, non-pulsating flow and a separate component. The 3-piece seal
higher differential pressures allows for slow rotation of the
intermediary seal ring, greatly reducing
friction –associated wear.

Conversion to Larger

Higher flow rates can easily be
accomplished with the addition of
one, two, or three secondary gear
housings, each with 50 GPM flow
capacity.

Main Housing Gear End Cover

Liquid first enters the inlet of the pump, shown as blue in the upper left corner of the pump main
housing. It is also directed within the pump to the bottom right port, also shown as blue through the
porting in the gear end housing.

As the drive gear in the center rotates in a counterclockwise direction, the low pressure blue liquid is
directed into the spaces between the gear teeth and transferred to the red ports, as shown. The
velocity of the liquid entering the gear teeth spaces is carefully matched with the speed of the gear set
to minimize changes in velocity and directional changes of the liquid, thus minimizing the pressure
drop in the pump. Gear pockets are designed to insure a pressure gradient is present around the
outside diameter of the idler gears to suppress cavitation and maximize the transfer rate of the pump.

It is the design and efficiency of the non-contacting side of the gear teeth (in the Red Zones) that
largely determines the ability of the pump to develop pressure. Permissible wear on the leading side
of the gear teeth does not compromise this performance characteristic of the Smith 3-gear pump. The
red ports are also integrated within the pump (high pressure).

It is important from a loading standpoint that the drive gear is exposed to a neutral load, eliminating
the necessity for another ball bearing to support the other end of the drive shaft (which would also
add another mechanical seal). Given that the schematic uses color to indicate pressure, the symmetric
colors surrounding the drive gear illustrate that the drive gear is balanced.

As high pressure develops in the red ports, liquid maintains velocity and flows out of the pump
through the outlet port shown as red in the upper right corner.

Secondary gear housings can be added to the main housing shown and are internally ported to match
those of the main housing. The addition of a secondary gear housing is not to boost the pressure
capability of the pump, but rather to increase the volumetric flow rate of the pump.

“It All Starts With the Seal”
Patented, Preassembled, Pre-tested Mechanical Seal in Every Pump

• Every mechanical seal is pre-assembled and pre-


tested before leaving the factory
• No lubrication is ever required
• Unique three-piece seal design allows intermediary
seal ring to see ½ the wear
• The SUPERSEAL™ option eliminates brittle carbon
graphite in favor of a self-repairing thermoplastic
intermediary seal ring that continually laps itself
while the pump is in operation
• No loose parts, no thumbprints on seal faces, easy
to remove and install
Ease of Installation

Old mechanical seal can be removed in the field in a matter


of minutes! No disassembly of the pump required!

Proper Pump Selection
What is the Liquid Service?
Although we supply our products for a variety of liquid services, not all of our pumps
are the same. Since every pump application is different, we add “special modifications”
to fit the customer’s needs.

What is the Flow Rate Required?


Our available pump flow rate range is from 2 – 250 GPM. Since higher flow means less
time to fill, maximum flow capacity pumps are desirable. HOWEVER, this is limited by
the liquid outlet size of the tank as well as the inlet line size feeding the pump. See our
pump model pages for the minimum required liquid outlet size. For pump flow rate
prediction, see our pump performance curves under our pump models or visit our
pump performance formula on page 35.

What is the Inlet Pressure? Differential Pressure?


The higher the differential pressure across the pump, the lower the flow rate. The
differential pressure is largely determined by the pressure drop on the discharge side of
the pump. The maximum recommended differential pressure for a specific pump
model depends on the liquid service/viscosity of the liquid and the duty cycle. Contact
our engineering department if the differential pressure cannot be determined.

Temperature Range/Viscosity?
The type of liquid, temperature, and viscosity are all important variables. When
ordering a pump, specify the temperature range so we can determine the viscosity of
the liquid service. General temperature limits are within -80°F to +400°F (-80°C to
+205°C).

Duty Cycle?
We must know for how long the pump will be typically operated to determine the best
possible product to fit your needs. For a pump operating more than 2 hours at one
time, we recommend our “NSSA” option and operating the motor at slower speeds.

Electrical Requirements?
Specify whether a pump only or complete assembly will be required (pump, motor,
coupling, coupling guard, base (if applicable)). For motor inquiries, specify voltage, Hz,
and 1 or 3 phase as well as type of enclosure.

Smith Pump Performance Formula
The Smith pump performance formula is the same formula used when deriving pump performance
curves. The performance formula, however, gives a very accurate representation of pump characteristics,
such as taking temperature into account. Since proper installation has a very important bearing on
performance of a positive displacement pump, our engineering department will gladly review a proposed
piping layout. Supply us with a complete drawing or detailed sketch showing size/length of inlet and
outlet lines, including any elbows, valves, tees, etc. The more information provided, the better we are
able to recommend the best piping installation possible.

Smith Exchange Pump Program
For many pump owners that do not want to remove the pump from
service for repairs, order an exchange pump. Once received, install the
exchange pump and send the old pump back to us for a generous credit.
All exchange pumps are backed by the same warranty provided for new
pumps.

The exchange program also applies to the mechanical seal. By returning


the old shaft seal assembly, you will receive a credit, that can be applied
towards future exchange shaft seal assemblies. It’s that simple.
