Low life-cycle costs
17 December 2014
Originally conceived to handle severe pumping applications in the oil and gas industries, Hydra-Cell T¬-Series pumps from Wanner International are claimed to have the lowest Life-cycle Cost (LCC) of any high pressure pump in their class.
With options available that meet the requirements of API 674, the Hydra-Cell T-Series seal-less pumps feature hydraulically balanced, multiple diaphragms in a single pump head. They can be used to replace packed triplex plunger pumps. They provide zero leakage, can run dry indefinitely without causing damage to the pump and can pump abrasive fluids effectively.
Seal maintenance is eliminated and because the plungers never come into contact with the pumped liquid, Wanner says they have a longer service life than those in plunger pumps. Having no dynamic seals, they can also accommodate hot liquids.
