The V2 Series grinder from Myers has an axial cutter system made of 440 stainless steel hardened to 57Rc and is composed of two parts – the plate and the blade. The plate has 14 specialized cutting slots (12 for the high-head version), which when combined with the three-armed blade, achieves up to 248,000 cuts per minute. Designed with computational fluid dynamics software, the unit has a volute and impeller that allows shut-off heads up to 180 feet with a single-stage centrifugal pump. Changing between the standard and high-head flow design requires only swapping the impeller and cutter plate, simplifying maintenance and reducing service parts inventory. 419/289-1144; www.femyers.com.
