Zero emission pump

The pumped fluid in the Zero Emission Pump from Hammelmann is hermetically sealed within the pump, preventing leakage during operation. The pump combines a vertical compact integral speed reduction gear end, channeling oscillating forces downward to avoid unwanted lateral oscillations. The integral speed reducer with twin helical gears ensures smooth running and even power transmission without axially loading the bearings. A selection of gear ratios is available. The compact construction eliminates the need for an external gearbox and prevents rotary oscillation. Compact 3, 5 and 7 cylinder pumps are available for injection service with input capabilities up to 1,500 hp. 800/783-4935; www.hammelmann.com.

The pump has hardened wear components and is intended for use in applications where settled solids must be put into suspension and pumped away with the discharge water. The primary applications include de-silting, dredging and moving driller's mud; other uses include tank and digester cleaning or pumping sediment from caissons. It requires hydraulic inputs of up to 28 gpm at 2,900 psi. It will pump up against head pressure up to 130 feet. 570/645-3779; www.hydra-tech.com.

Methane removal pump

The Pumps 2000 America AODD design from Megator includes 1/2-, 1-, 1 1/2- and 2-inch designs capable of passing up to 1 1/2-inch solids. A fire-retardant anti-static (FRAS) conductive plastic carrying an Atex M1 rating is also a proprietary feature for use in explosive situations. The system can be used for dewatering and methane gas removal. The air motor is stall-free, kept smoothly running without any lubrication, and uses low air consumption. The material resists deterioration even in low pH locations. The high-suction lift allows for more efficient usage over time while designed to be maintenance-free. 412/963-9200; www.megator.com.
