How Does Restoration / Coating Improve Pump Performance?

Operational costs (energy) and maintenance (service) account for more than 70% of a pump’s total life cycle cost. As fluid moves through a pumpโ€™s wet end, increased friction and wear can be the biggest factor in efficiency loss. Protecting your pump assets from wet end corrosion, scale build-up, and tolerance losses can generate a sizable payback.

Beyond improved energy savings and performance, the restoration/coating of older pumping equipment can provide the advantage of repairing worn equipment at a fraction of the cost of spare parts replacement or whole replacement.

So how does restoration / coating improve pump performance? Find out by reading the full article on A.W. Chesterton’s Reliability Matters blog.
