Product Description
The Chemical Process Pump is a heavy-duty centrifugal pump engineered per API 610 standards for demanding chemical and petrochemical applications. Its robust back-pull-out design allows maintenance without disconnecting piping, while the centerline-mounted casing accommodates thermal expansion at elevated temperatures. With flow rates up to 2,000 m³/h and temperatures to 200°C, this pump handles corrosive and hazardous fluids with reliable mechanical seal systems and material options including cast steel, 304/316L stainless, and duplex alloys.
Applications
- Petrochemical plants
- Chemical processing
- Oil & gas refining
- Power generation
- Pharmaceutical manufacturing
- Water treatment

Selection Guide
✅ When to Choose This Pump
- Refinery and petrochemical process service
- High-temperature (above 150C) hydrocarbon pumping
- Critical service requiring API 610 compliance
- High-pressure injection and transfer duties
⚠️ When NOT to Choose
- Low-pressure water utility service (over-specified)
- Strong acids requiring fluoroplastic lining
- Solids-laden slurries (requires slurry pump)
- Below-grade sump applications (use vertical sump)
💡 Common Selection Mistakes
- Ignoring NPSH calculation for hot hydrocarbons
- Using single seal for toxic/flammable service
- Not specifying centerline mounting for >150C
- Under-sizing motor for specific gravity >1.0
