Pumps for de-scaling
Published: 25 August, 2017
When a major producer of heavy-duty industrial cleaning machines was commissioned to design and manufacture a high-pressure cleaner/de-scaler for an agricultural equipment manufacturer, it turned immediately to HYDRA-CELL seal-less pumps.
Hydra-Cell diaphragm pumps have no dynamic seals to wear and no tight internal tolerances, ensuring long-term efficiency and reliability with no seal maintenance.
The Company had good past experience of using Hydra-Cell leak-free, low maintenance pumps but for this particular application the liquid flow requirements were substantially higher than previously encountered.
The answer was to use four Hydra-Cell T100K triplex pumps in parallel in order to achieve a flow of 681 lpm at 193 bar pressure. The company says the pumps handle the solid abrasive particles with ease and have proved to be an exceptionally reliable solution.

At this time of year plant and works engineers are often faced with the need to remove scale and debris from heating and cooling equipment to restore efficiency. KAMCO says it has a range of chemical cleaning pumps designed to clean heat exchangers, boilers, chillers, air compressors and cooling waterways without the need to strip them.
WANNER says its new, seal-less, hydraulically balanced diaphragm pump offers flow rates up to 366 lpm at pressures up to 103 bar.
