Abstract

Although oil lubricated rotary pumps are widely used for both corrosive and clean applications, alternative ‘dry’ pumping technology has introduced a new concept in process pumping, providing the opportunity to achieve significant improvements in safety, reliability, cleanliness, maintenance and running costs. The performance levels now established by dry pumping systems on industrial processes, particularly with regard to enhanced safety, reduced equipment supervision and low maintenance, have led to demands for increased automation of control and monitoring, and a reappraisal of safety standards. The paper reviews developments in these areas and discusses the benefits of a comprehensive systems approach to meet current and future process pumping needs.
