HNS SERIES

The most advanced modular

submersible pump system
 HEVVY PUMPS:
The evolution of Toyo Pumps and a place where
heritage meets imagination for the best of both worlds.
In Hevvy Pumps, we have created a product line that embodies the values of imagination
and continuous improvement.

Over the course of our 35 year history as Toyo Pumps, the company has evolved. It is
the customers who have helped shape us and Hevvy Pumps is the product line we have
built for our customers out of years of listening to their needs, dreams and continually
excellent feedback. We listened and then answered by creating a line of pumps that is
not satisfied relying on past merits alone.

Hevvy pushes the limits of design to propel the future and challenge the industry to
be more reliable, efficient and accountable to its customers and the environment. It is
an exciting new future when “heritage” and “imagination” meet for the best of both
worlds. With Hevvy and its new product lines, we are ready to make a real impact
globally.

Make no mistake, the Toyo name has served us well. Toyo is older, proven technology,
developed years ago. Hevvy is about embracing our proven technology and
incorporating it into our new designs to both improve and create better products.

HEVVY ADVANTAGE
Hevvy is a niche player in the solids handling market
and knows the applications better than anyone else.
This knowledge brings with it the following advantages:

■ We can truly partner with our customers and consider ourselves an extension of our
customer’s operation.

■ We are not trying to be everything to everybody and therefore do not have the
unfocused range of product lines that most of our conglomerate competitors have.
As a result we are able to move faster and adapt with technology.

■ We realize that by gaining just five efficiency points, we can effectively save our
customers thousands of dollars a year in electricity costs.

■ We also realize that by not basing our business model on surviving off spare parts
revenues that we can invest in designing pumps that actually last the test of time
thereby offering our customers a lower total cost of ownership.

We have named ourselves Hevvy because that one word sums up who we are and the
industries we serve.

Hevvy Pumps are designed in house by our engineers and crafted in North America
using our own local workforce and know-how.

Hevvy is our name, it signifies we are no lightweight.

Intro to the HNS Pumps

Hevvy Pumps, the global evolution of Toyo Pumps, introduces the HNS heavy-duty modular
submersible pump series, available in 10HP-800HP. The HNS range is redefining the
submersible pump market by answering one of the most frequent causes of failure in the
submersible pump world: mechanical seal failure.

Hevvy offers the only fully integrated pressurized sealing solution on the market. Thanks to
the combination of its patented positive pressure technology and tailored Hevvy Slurry Seals,
the HNS submersible pumps lasts longer and can pump more aggressive slurries than any
other submersible pump. The HNS offers unparalleled flexibility with modular selection of
the pump wet-end, seal, motor, and accessories to best fit the application.

Plenum54™
Positive Pressure System
Welcome the revolutionary Plenum54™ to the
submersible world. The patented Hevvy Pressurized
Slurry Sealing system combines an internal self-generating
pressurization system with Hevvy’s Slurry seal range.
Together, this creates an internal oil back pressure on the
sealing area which at typical submergence depths will yield
a greater internal pressure in the sealing chamber than the
incoming slurry pressure, ensuring the ultimate seal life.

 E Wet End
The HNS-E Wet End has a fully recessed vortex impeller that permits an
unobstructed passage. This design allows solids with the same diameter
of the discharge to pass through without the danger of clogging.
The HNS-E Wet End has some of the highest efficiencies available
E for recessed impeller due to the unique axial spiral casing. Up to 40%
solid fibrous material can also be handled without difficulty due to the
natural flow of the fluid through the pump casing and the fact that the
flow is virtually isolated from the impeller (only 15% of pumped liquid
is in contact with the impeller). This pump is ideally suited for low shear
applications.

S Wet End
The new HNS-S Wet End is a fantastic medium duty, high efficiency,
solids handling pump for up to 60% solids by weight. The wet end

S boasts special elliptical cutwater design, high efficiency curved back

vanes and an adjustable front wear plate.

D Wet End
The HNS-D Wet End is designed specifically to pick up and transport
abrasive solids with the least amount of water. This wet end boasts a
robust closed impeller with large internal clearances for superior solids
handling capability of up to 70% by weight.
D

B Wet End
The HNS-B Wet End is hard wearing, heavy duty, and comes standard
in high chrome and CD4MCu – although many other metallurgies are
available. This wet end features a high efficiency impeller and flow
stabilizing vanes on the suction side to increase efficiency and reduce
turbulence and resulting impeller wear. This wet end can reach heads up

B to 500 ft (150 m) and transport heavy slurries with up to 70% solids.

 Which mechanical seal
is best for your application?

SD – Severe Duty Mechanical Seal XD – eXtreme Duty Mechanical Seal

Hevvy introduces the SD Double Acting Back-to-Back standard seal, ideal for industries’ tough sealing
needs. This is the toughest ‘standard’ sealing solution available on the market.
■ Double Acting, Back-to-Back Arrangement.
■ Sintered Silicon Carbide Seal Faces impregnated with graphite.
■ Shrink fitted Seal Faces – seals are less prone to cracking.
■ Anti-rotational pins to prevent seal seats from rotating.
■ Widened outboard gap under stationary seal seat – seal less inclined to hang-up.
■ Double balanced at seal faces. Increased submergence pressure will not open up the seal faces.
Hevvy introduces the XD Double Acting Tandem Arrangement seal, ideal for industries’ heavy
duty and extra heavy-duty applications. This is the sturdiest mechanical seal ever designed for a
submersible pump.
■ Double Acting, Tandem Arrangement.
■ Tungsten Carbide Seal Faces. Less prone to cracking, improved impact resistance.
■ No Shaft Sleeve – impeller clamps seal directly onto shaft. No measuring required.
■ Anti-rotational pins to prevent seal seats from rotating.
■ Double balanced at seal faces. Increased submergence pressure will not open up the seal faces.
■ Smooth-open geometry at lower seal face. Solids will not bind-up the seal.

Available Pump Add-Ons
Agitator
The Toyo patented agitator eliminates solids accumulating on the sump floor. It can
significantly reduce maintenance costs from digging out sumps and downtime from
solids building up and choking off the suction. The Toyo Agitator’s patented blade
Agitator
achieves the highest efficiency in material mixing.

Chopper
Heavy duty blades, located in front of the pump’s suction, agitates, chops, cuts and
shreds incoming solids such as metal banding, plastic, wood, rags and bags, prior to
them entering the impeller. The ‘chopper’ eliminates pump and system downtime by
preventing the plugging of pump suctions and pipelines.
Chopper

Jet Ring
When the material being pumped is not free-flowing and the agitator cannot put
the solids back into suspension, look at adding a jet ring. The jet ring delivers high
pressure water through nozzles to loosen up compacted and heavy solids and thus
fluidizing dense solids mixtures into the intake of the pump.

Jet Ring

In the field:
New Hevvy Technology is Putting Pressure
on the Competition…
“This is one of the most abrasive applications I have ever seen
in a process application (pumping 65% solids). The pump ran Toyo/Hevvy Casing
After 26 weeks
completely dry under load at various times during the test.”
– Mine Site Reliability Engineering
The competitor’s pump was lasting 3 weeks and the new HNS
pump lasted 26 weeks. The HNS motor & seal were not damaged
at all after 26 weeks – only the impeller needed to be replaced.
Competitor Casing
After 3 Weeks

Modularity Interchangeability / Upgradability

Has your application changed? Are you re-purposing the pump? Not a problem
for the HNS Pump. With its modular design, Hevvy can retrofit your existing pump
to add on an option that you originally did not have, or change out the motor,
seal or wet-end to meet the new conditions of your pump.
