Water & wastewater: Pump design brings car wash savings

摘要

Specialist seal-less pumps from a US manufacturer are being praised by OEMs in the car wash manufacturing market for helping to ensure that vehicle wash consistently systems work at capacity, with minimal maintenance requirements. Wanner's Hydra-Cell positive displacement pumps feature a seal-less pumping chamber and hydraulically balanced diaphragm design, enabling the pumps to provide a leak-free, low-maintenance performance while processing difficult fluids over a wide range of pressures and flows. The company says the seal-less design brings cost savings and a reduction in energy of up to 70% for an average of 15 years, with some pumps enjoying a life span of more than 30 years. The Hydra-Cell pumps that work in vehicle wash systems can always work at capacity, maximising revenue for the operators.
