Pump specialist and native Sykes distributor Integrated Pump Rental is breaking new ground for patrons in corrosive environments, offering a pump solution that is built totally from stainless-steel.
According to Steve du Toit, rental improvement supervisor at Integrated Pump Rental. whereas the pumps themselves or pump elements are generally available in chrome steel, the market has not but made one thing like this readily available.
“ เพรสเชอร์เกจ to particular buyer requirements, built to order in our modern workshop, has led us to develop a totally chrome steel resolution – from the tank and skid to the lifting frame and other components,” says du Toit. “We have seen a definite curiosity in the market for this build design, as clients see the value in having this corrosion resistant material in all features of the pump set.”
He notes that the preliminary interest has come from the mining sector, the place mine water being pumped is often acidic. However, he expects additional curiosity from the chemical and course of industries the place corrosive liquids are pumped and stored.

“The design is predicated on our ‘total solution’ approach, the place we consider the complete software and its challenges,” he says. “While pressure gauge octa of stainless-steel is obviously larger, the value gained by the customer when it comes to longevity and reliability far outweigh this.”
Among the functions is open pit dewatering where there are low pH ranges within the water, in addition to coastal applications where salt water and air cause speedy rusting of delicate metal. Integrated Pump Rental has already efficiently positioned a stainless steel unit in a coastal utility, where it is performing nicely.
“Different grades of stainless steel are used within the design, relying on which elements have essentially the most contact with the acidic medium,” he says. “A range of materials is therefore employed to swimsuit every software, and to attain optimal efficiency at the most competitive value.”
This customized engineering is made potential by the company’s range of technical expertise and specialist expertise that resides in its people. This in-house experience consists of draughting, fabrication and pump meeting, making use of coded welders and certified boilermakers. Depending on the appliance, the chrome steel construct could be supplied on a road trailer or with a site trolley.
