How to specify and witness a test in order to achieve the best possible outcome for a facility.
Centrifugal Pumps
Centrifugal pumps are the most common pump, used in a wide variety of applications, especially water. They include one or more impellers that rotate and pull the fluid through. Impellers can be trimmed to change head or flow to enhance efficiency. They are not commonly used in non-Newtonian fluids.
The new HI Energy Rating Program uses a label to indicate the power savings obtained from pump system upgrades.
Positive displacement pumps can provide cost savings over similar dewatering solutions.
Understanding the pros and cons of various minimum flow protection systems can help you optimize your entire system.
One application used a pump flow algorithm in place of a conventional flow meter to protect pumps in parallel operation.
The equipment meets the specs and timetable required for critical thermal-control functions.
Emergency dewatering equipment was deployed to handle the aftermath of the estimated 6.9 trillion gallons of rainwater dumped on Louisiana in August.
The Claude 'Bud' Lewis Carlsbad Desalination Plant in Southern California uses reverse osmosis to produce more than 50 million gallons of drinking water daily.
One facility’s high-speed centrifugal pumps saw improved performance and efficiency after adding custom seals.
The mechanical seal system, among other features, reduced downtime at the Wisconsin plant.
Understanding this complex topic can help end users avoid common pitfalls.
Sealless pumps improve reliability and safety when pumping hazardous fluids.
The 77 pumps at the Puralube Zeitz site leverage progressing cavity and centrifugal pumps to recycle used oil into more than 140,000 metric tons of base and mineral oil products.
Specialized centrifugal pumps handle liquids with up to 70 percent gases.
Magnetic couplings improve reliability and safety when pumping hazardous fluids.
