Pump Repair Success Stories/Gallery
Seeing is believing, and here are only a few of the hundreds of challenging pump equipment repairs we have performed over the last 20 years.
Stainless Steel Impeller Repair
We saved a waste water treatment plant over $30,000 on
this 48” diameter 410 Stainless Steel Impeller for an Allis
Chalmers pump.
Vacuum Pump Housing Upgrade
A chemical plantʼs process was corroding eight of these cast iron SiHi vacuum pump housings annually. The plant engineer had ProFlow Pumping Solutions upgrade the metallurgy to 317L stainless steel. At the time of this posting, we saved this customer from buying 80 housings, in addition to providing massive reductions in maintenance and huge production savings.
