Pump specialist and local Sykes distributor Integrated Pump Rental is breaking new ground for customers in corrosive environments, providing a pump answer that is constructed totally from stainless-steel.
According to Steve du Toit, rental growth manager at Integrated Pump Rental. whereas the pumps themselves or pump elements are generally available in stainless-steel, the market has not yet made one thing like this available.
“Our give consideration to particular buyer requirements, constructed to order in our fashionable workshop, has led us to develop a fully chrome steel resolution – from the tank and skid to the lifting body and different components,” says du Toit. “We have seen a definite interest in the market for this build design, as prospects see the worth in having this corrosion resistant materials in all aspects of the pump set.”
He notes that the preliminary curiosity has come from the mining sector, where mine water being pumped is usually acidic. However, he expects further interest from the chemical and course of industries where corrosive liquids are pumped and stored.

“The design relies on our ‘total solution’ approach, the place we consider the entire utility and its challenges,” he says. “While the upfront price of stainless steel is obviously larger, the worth gained by the shopper by way of longevity and reliability far outweigh this.”
Among the purposes is open pit dewatering where there are low pH ranges within the water, in addition to coastal applications where salt water and air trigger speedy rusting of delicate metal. Integrated Pump Rental has already successfully placed a stainless-steel unit in a coastal software, where it’s performing properly.
“Different grades of stainless steel are used within the design, relying on which elements have probably the most contact with the acidic medium,” he says. “A range of materials is subsequently employed to go nicely with each software, and to achieve optimal efficiency on the most competitive cost.”
This custom engineering is made potential by the company’s range of technical abilities and specialist experience that resides in its folks. This in-house experience includes draughting, fabrication and pump meeting, making use of coded welders and qualified boilermakers. Depending on the application, the stainless-steel construct can be supplied on a highway trailer or with a website trolley.
