Sundyne Scores Success With Vertical API 685 Sealless Magnetic Drive Pumps

Arvada, CO /PRNewswire/ - Sundyne, a global leader in the design and manufacture of highly-engineered high-head, low-flow pumps and compressors for use in the global oil and gas production, refining, petrochemical and chemical industries, recently secured a contract to supply 4 LMV-801S vertical inline sealless, magnetic-drive pumps to a new chemical processing plant being built in Freeport, Texas.

This award is the first for the recently launched LMV-801S, which combines API 685 sealless magnetic-drive technology with Sundyne API 610 OH3 and OH5 vertical direct drive pump hydraulics and wet end technology.

The engineering contractor handling the plant construction specified the LMV-801S due to its ability to deliver required flow – up to 380 GPM (86 m3 / hr) – at high differential head – to 720 ft (220 m) – while maintaining low NPSHA. The contractor's preference for environmentally safe, efficient and reliable sealless magnetic drive pumps differentiated the LMV-801S from standard vertical pump designs.

Once installed in the new chemical plant, the Sundyne LMV-801S pumps will provide highly reliable leak-free performance, improve overall plant safety, improve productivity, and lower life-cycle operating costs.
