Hydra-Cell® Pumps in Condensate Processing Applications - Knock Out Drum Pump (KOD)
Safe and Reliable KOD Condensate Transfer

The previous Progressive Cavity Pump (PCP) had leakage through its mechanical seal, resulting in costly maintenance and unplanned downtime.
The customer then chose Hydra-Cell®.
Process Challenges
- Low NPSHa
- Handling condensates with fine solids which accumulate in the KOD
- Zero emissions of aramoatic hydra-carbons, environmentally safe
- Ability of the KOD pump to run dry to be able to cope with intermittent liquid presence
Hydra-Cell® Pump Advantages
No Seals. No Packing.
- Run dry indefinitely
- Pumped liquid 100% contained, zero leakage
- Ability to handle liquids with solids reliably
- No critical tight tolerances to maintain which are sensitive to corrosion of metal parts or swelling of elastomer parts
Unique Check Valves
- Low NPHSr
