Oil and Gas

Oil and Gas

Major global oil and gas companies are significant users of Hydra-Cell pumps, and good examples of an ideal match between pumping requirements and pump capabilities.

Seal-less design allows the pumps to handle liquids of all types from thin non-lubricants to abrasive slurries, chemicals  and contaminated mixes.

Why Hydra-Cell?
Hydra-Cell pumps are seal-less. No seals, no seal wear – No leaks. No loss of performance. No frequent repairs. Less downtime. Long-term reliability, with minimal routine maintenance and low repair costs.

Hydraulically-balanced diaphragms isolate pump chamber from drive end and enable pumping of chemicals, abrasives, non-lubricants etc.

Wide choice of materials for pump body and elastomers.

Hydra-Cell pumps can handle solids up to 1mm, or more. They can be pumped without fine filtration. System costs are reduced and maintenance is simplified.

Most pumps in the Hydra-Cell range can operate at any pressure from <1 bar up to at least 70 bar. Some models up to 170 bar.

The flow rate of a Hydra-Cell pump is constant, regardless of pressure. The relationship between flow and pump speed is a straight line. Flow is easily controlled within ± 1% accuracy simply by controlling pump speed – with turndown ratios of 10:1 or better.

Flow is steady, with little pulsation.

Hydra-Cell pumps can run dry without damage. Innovative Kel-Cell technology protects diaphragms even in abnormal system conditions.

Energy savings. Compact and highly efficient (80-85%), a Hydra-Cell pump can be fitted with a smaller motor than would be required by many much bigger pumps for equivalent flows and pressures.

Cost and space saving through simple, compact design.

Wide operating range enables Hydra-Cell pumps to work continuously at high pressures, for tasks such as injection of well and process chemicals and re-injection of ground water.

Smooth, virtually pulse-free flow, combined with metering accuracy and easy control, is ideal in gas drying, FGD, temperature control and other gas conditioning systems.

And not least…  energy-efficiency, simple build, small footprint, low maintenance – and proven reliability in continuous 24/7 pumping systems.
