Abstract

A centrifugal pump mounting structure which allows easy, sturdy, and reliable mounting of a pump on a support bed in several different attitudes. The mounting system of the present invention includes legs situated at the opposite side of the pump to that of the pressure outlet opening and on both sides of the longitudinal plane passing through the pump shaft and the pressure outlet opening; in which the legs have two planar surfaces for mounting of the pump; and in which there are, on both sides of the pressure outlet opening substantially in the longitudinal plane passing through the shaft of the pump, brackets with planar mounting surfaces for mounting the pump.
