Industrial pumping system repairs require state-of-the-art technology needed to fix a number of issues that may occur. One type of equipment is a laser-guided shaft alignment tool that helps correct misaligned shafts to prevent machine breakdowns and reduce energy consumption.
Well pumps are durable and long lasting, but they must be installed properly. If your submersible pump is located too low in the well, for example, it will pick up well-bottom sediment, which taxes the pump and accelerates wear.
Most process pumps have suction pumps that are frame-mounted. They come with open impellers and are available in multiple alloys and non-metals, which makes them perfect for corrosive services such as chemical plants, paper mills, and food processing plants.
We all know that drinking enough water is important, but did you know that lack of water is the number one cause of daytime tiredness?
Did you know that a pump does not create pressure? A pumps job is to create flow of the liquid which then in turn creates pressure based off the resistance to the actual flow.
Dry vacuum pumps use compressed gases (without any water- or oil-based sealing fluids) to produce vacuum pressure. Industrial dry vacuums are ideal for hazardous or corrosive applications where environmental concerns exist.
What are the main two types of submersible water pumps? Utility and trash pumps. Utility submersible pumps are designed to pump out water only while trash submersible pumps are designed to handle water that contains solid debris like sand or soil.
In 79 AD, Mt. Vesuvius erupted, burying the city of Pompeii. One of the city’s technological marvels was a two-cylinder, dual-action suction pump coupled with a walking-beam pump system that could be used to extract or raise water.
Well water is used in our homes for many everyday activities beyond drinking water. Did you know that it takes about the same amount of water to brush your teeth as it does to flush a toilet?
When it comes to your water pump, one of the best ways to avoid costly repairs is by having the unit regularly serviced. We will inspect all components, change the oil, and purge the system of any debris and impurities.
In the movement of high-viscosity liquids, the flow rates of positive displacement pumps increase as the viscosity of the liquid increases. Centrifugal pumps best rates are delivered with lower viscosity liquids. Changes in viscosity result in line loss in either system.
A variety of factors influence dry screw pump design and operation. For example, since there’s no fluid to dissipate heat, dry pumps are often constructed of durable metals like iron because it resists thermal growth under high temperatures.
If you use well water in your home, any faucet, showerhead, or toilet leak is costing you energy dollars, because your well pump has to work to deliver wasted water. Care to guess how much water waste a few minor indoor leaks can cause? That would be as many as three gallons of water per minute.
If you are novice with water wells and want to know about their maintenance procedures, it is dependent on the type of well you have. This can be checked by looking at the cover of well.
There are safety issues involved in trying to remedy an electrical problem involving a well pump. Because of the close proximity to water, most professionals recommend using a certified electrician with well pump experience to diagnose and correct electrical problems.
Gauge readings for a pumping system can decrease if clearances are too wide, there is wear, air has entered the suction line, or the impeller eye is clogged or damaged.
A deep well jet pump sits above the ground and may include a tailpipe to ensure the well is never pumped dry. For depths to water 25 feet to 110 feet deep, water is drawn out of one pipe and pushed through another pipe. This type of pump requires a foot valve to prime the pump.
In a displacement pump, the energy of the pump is added to the water on a periodic basis. Meanwhile, the water is contained in a set volume. Basically, displacement pumps will not change their volume with a change in discharge pressure.
Properly installed and equipped wells ensure decades of water delivery. We use check valves, pumps, motors, filters, and correct wiring manufactured from superior materials according to the highest standards and install them in compliance with municipal codes.

As the cost of energy continues to rise and environmental legislation becomes more stringent, reducing energy consumption will grow increasingly important in the pumping industry. Currently, pumping systems account for nearly 20% of the world's electrical energy demand, which is the reason alternative pumping methods are being explored.
