No Seals. No Packing. API674 Pumps
Non Lubricating Low Viscosity Liquids
With no dynamic seals in the pumped liquid, the Hydra-Cell® pump does not rely on the properties of the liquid to:
- Lubricate the pumping action
- Form a seal to maintain pressure
This results in the Hydra-Cell® pump's ability to pump very thin, non lubricating liquids at high pressure reliably.
Run Dry Indefinitely
The pumping action of the Hydra-Cell® pump does not need the liquid to lubricate seals or packing during the pumping action enabling it to run dry….forever.
The Hydra-Cell pump can survive mistakes made by operators running the pump without liquid.
Corrosive, Aggressive Liquids
There are many common corrosive liquids used in industrial processes such as Hydrochloric, Sulphuric, Nitric acids, De-ionised water. But also common liquids can become very corrosive as the temperature increases - so even water at 90° C becomes a corrosive liquid.
The Hydra-Cell® pumps seal-free packing-free design makes it an ideal choice for handling corrosive liquids:
- Pressure injection
- Transfer
- Metering and dosing
Handling Abrasive Liquids with < 800 Micron Solids
The presence of suspended undissolved solids in a pump liquid is more common than you may think.
- Supersaturated liquids used in spray drying
- Resins and Isocyanates, caustic, phosphate and acidic solutions can form very small hard crystals when exposed to humidity or air
- Solids pick up from corroded pipes and tanks
It is often the small, sub 5 micron solids that do the most damage to dynamic seals and are very hard and expensive to filter out.
Seal flushing is eliminated saving cost of installation and running costs.
The Hydra-Cell® pump's seal-free and packing-free design, combined the special valve design, ensures reliability when pumping liquids with suspended solids.
