Pump Retrofit and Modernization
Technical upgrade of existing pumps: new impeller, new materials, new performance — keeping base and piping
Reverse engineering and re-rating service for existing centrifugal pumps. Our team performs dimensional survey of the installed pump (even from discontinued manufacturers), redesigns the impeller and internal parts per the new required operating point, validates by CFD and manufactures parts in our plant — keeping original casing, base and piping. Reduces replacement CAPEX and avoids prolonged downtime. Applicable to horizontal centrifugal pumps per ASME B73.1 and similar, from any manufacturer.
