Line Of API 675 Metering Pumps From AquFlow (Formerly Hydroflo) For Oil & Gas Industry
AquFlow announced its complete line of API 675 compliant metering / dosing pumps to safely handle the toughest chemicals used in the Oil & Gas industry. With its reputation for building accurate, reliable and durable pumps for the last 38 years AquFlow (formerly Hydroflo) has the range of flow, pressure and corrosion resistant materials such as 316 SS, Alloy 20 and Alloy C to be a leading pump manufacturer for the industry. AquFlow can now offer complete pumping solutions with their pump selection added to their ability to custom build to spec the entire pump skid systems.
Irvine, CA (PRWEB)
The oil and gas industry always demanded from its equipment manufacturers the highest level of safety, reliability and durability. The recent news have especially put safety and reliability in sharp focus. AquFlow, as Hydroflo, first started manufacturing chemical metering pumps using the most advanced technology back in 1972. Today 38 years later AquFlow has improved on the tradition and the reputation, manufacturing these pumps in a state of the art facility in Irvine, California, using all US made components. Quality, reliability and safety have always been AquFlow's central focus in everything they make, including their line of API 675 compliant metering pumps.
While AquFlow's smallest pump Series 1000 starts at less than 1 GPH (gallons per hour) capacity, their largest pump Series 4000 can reach a flow capacity of 3,500 GPH at very high pressures. AquFlow pumps come in a range of corrosion resistant materials including 316 Stainless Steel, Alloy 20, Alloy C, PVDF and PTFE. Between the various applications AquFlow serves on Offshore production platforms to refineries they have the pump and the compatible material to handle every chemical from methanol, Glycol, Ammonium Hydroxide, anti corrosion agents, anti foaming agents to hexane and butane.
For handling inflammable liquids such as methanol, hexane, butane etc. AquFlow developed pumps with explosion proof motors to prevent the possibility of accidental ignition of any fumes in the vicinity. AquFlow pumps can also be controlled by a 4-20mA signal to automatically adjust its flow capacity even from a remote location. There are also additional options for leak detection to minimize any wastage or spill of chemicals. Most of these pumps also come in Simplex and Duplex configurations.
In addition to their complete line of hydraulic diaphragm metering pumps AquFlow also carries a line of Solenoid and Mechanical diaphragm metering pumps. They specialize in building pump skid systems including tanks, valves, fittings and controls customized for even the most complex chemical handling requirements of the Oil and Gas industry.
