Pump maintenance:piece of cake

One year on from the launch of its EZstrip progressing cavity pump, NOV Mono, manufacturer of pumps, parts,Munchers, screens and packaged systems, has launched another maintain-in-place innovation that simplifies maintenance of a PC sludge cake pump.

The EZstrip cake pump can be stripped down and rebuilt in just 15min, without the need to disconnect or remove any pipe work.

The new pump has a specifically designed feed chamber that is disconnected by removing only a few screws and allows access to the pin joint area for removal of any blockage or compressed cake. Once the rotor assembly is disconnected from the screw conveyor, the rotor and stator can be removed - all in just 6min.
