Twin pump unit casing having motor mounted touchscreens

A pump unit, comprising:

• a casing including a first pedestal casing, a second pedestal casing, a first motor casing, a second motor casing, a suction flange and a discharge flange;
• a first pump within the casing and hydraulically fed from the suction flange;
• a first shaft within the first pedestal casing;
• a first pair of removable covers positioned at opposing sides of the first pedestal casing for accessing the first shaft;
• a first motor within the first motor casing;
• a second pump within the casing and hydraulically fed from the suction flange and provides a parallel hydraulic path to the first pump, wherein the discharge flange is hydraulically fed from the first pump and the second pump;
• a second shaft within the second pedestal casing;
• a second pair of removable covers positioned at opposing sides of the second pedestal casing for accessing the second shaft;
• a second motor within the second motor casing;
• a first touchscreen attached to the first motor casing for input and/or output in association with the first pump;
• a first controller for controlling operation of the first touchscreen and the first pump;
• a second touchscreen attached to the second motor casing for input and/or output in association with the second pump;
• a second controller for controlling operation of the second touchscreen and the second pump, and
• a flap valve which hydraulically connects the first pump and the second pump to the discharge flange;
• a co-ordination module configured to disable the first motor or the second motor for maintenance or inspection, and operate the other of the first motor or the second motor during the maintenance or the inspection,
• wherein the pump unit is a vertical inline split-coupled unit,
• wherein in a vertical orientation the casing is substantially vertically symmetrical and includes a flattened bottom.
