Textile Manufacturing Pump
Application: High-Pressure Injection
Pump Details: Ingersoll Rand 2.5x5 HS 5-Stage
Pump Type: Horizontally-mounted reciprocating pump
A textile manufacturing company brought a high-pressure injection reciprocating pump to Hydro for repair. The pump’s original barrel design had a stainless steel casing, but the walls had worn thin. The pump was in a high-pressure application and experienced typical reciprocating pump pulsations, causing cracking and leaks in the casing.Hydro upgraded the barrel design with thicker wall sections and fully machined passageways to significantly improve resistance to cracking and leakage.
The repair of this pump was so successful that the customer placed orders for 8 additional barrels.
