5 Steps for Reliable Packing Performance

These guidelines will help extend packing life and reduce downtime. No shortcuts should be taken if a plant wants to achieve reliable compression packing performance. However, reliability and a longer […]

Pressure Testing of DFT® Check Valves [Infographic]

All DFT Check Valves undergo rigorous tests to ensure they meet industry quality requirements. Check out this handy infographic to learn about their diligent testing.

Bearing Protection Best Practices

Electro Static Technology (EST, AEGIS®) guarantees that AC induction motor bearings will not fail from electrical fluting damage when AEGIS Shaft Grounding Rings have been installed with new bearings in […]

Positive Displacement Pumps Best Suited For Liquid-Transfer Applications

Pumping applications can range from being simple – fluid transferring operations that move product from one tank, container or truck to another – to complex and sensitive, such as chemical […]

Accurately Predict Transient Fluid Forces in Piping Systems, Part 2: Applications

Part 1 of this series discussed in detail how to accurately calculate the reactions induced by pressure transients that travel at acoustic velocity in either liquid or gas piping systems. […]

Accurately Predict Transient Fluid Forces in Piping Systems, Part 1: Fundamentals

Changes in the operation of piping systems – like valve closures or pump starts – propagate pressure waves that travel at acoustic velocity throughout the fluid. These pressure waves have […]

Condition Monitoring Standards for Centrifugal Pumps

Basic Principle The radial vanes cause pumpage, let’s say water, to rotate in the cylinder. Centrifugal force moves water towards the outside of the cylinder. Since the water can’t move […]

Top Reasons to Choose Saniflex™ AODD Pump Diaphragms [Whitepaper]

The air-operated double-diaphragm (AODD) pump has been a godsend for operators in the industrial space who need a cost-effective, reliable, and safe pump technology for a wide range of liquid-transfer […]

How to Achieve Stuffing Box Reliability

Long packing life requires proper packing installation, shaft stabilization, and thorough equipment inspections. By David Brewer The stuffing box of a pump houses a gland that compresses the packing used […]

Unveil Your True Potential: An Essential Guide for Maintenance Assessments

Leading maintenance in a plant, mine, or mill takes a lot of effort. Emergency work comes in a steady stream, some are breakdowns, and other work is just “honey-do-jobs.” The […]

8-Steps to Successfully Implement a Preventive Maintenance Program

This is an overview of the implementation steps in a typical Preventive Maintenance (PM) improvement project. Most of the processes can be applied to a greenfield process. In fact, that […]
