Compact Split Case. Built for Real Performance.

Today’s Thelco Pump of the Day features the Worthington 1.5LLR-10, built in a standard fitted configuration with an impeller trimmed and balanced to 9.60” diameter (max 9.75”).

Right away, this unit stands out with its compact split case design, clean assembly, and balanced construction. As a result, it delivers efficient flow while maintaining smooth, reliable operation.

Trimmed Impeller 9.60” DIA (Max 9.75”)

First, this impeller is trimmed just below max diameter, allowing the pump to match system requirements without overdriving flow.

Because of this, it:

  • Hits the correct performance curve
  • Reduces unnecessary energy consumption
  • Improves efficiency across the system
  • Maintains stable operation under load

In addition, the balancing process ensures low vibration and consistent performance.

LLR Split Case Design

Next, the LLR split case design pulls fluid into both sides of the impeller, which:

  • Reduces axial thrust
  • Improves hydraulic balance
  • Increases efficiency at operating conditions

As a result, the pump runs smoother and lasts longer in continuous-duty applications.

Easy to Maintain

Just as important, the split case design simplifies maintenance:

  • Access internals without disturbing piping
  • Reduce service time
  • Minimize downtime

Therefore, operators can keep systems running without extended shutdowns.
