  • Bearings designed for abrasive liquids
    Particulates in the water of a central production plant in Kansas City, USA, were causing bushings to fail after 30 months. A natural rubber-based, self-lubricating bearing material was suggested as a replacement. The outcome was a five year period without any performance problems and an estimated saving of approximately US$60,000.
  • Transferring viscous waste in a brewery
    Staff at a UK brewery had to manually empty mash waste from the equipment, costing time and energy. A pump was needed which could handle the highly viscous material at the production facility. Having approached a number of companies, a solution was provided which eliminated the labour intensive process and improved efficiency.

    Moyno has developed a progressing cavity pump designed for winery applications such as pump overs, pumping high fining solids or a tote of crushed grapes.
  • Submerged vertical safety concept
    The damaged pipe at a Swedish unloading terminal led to the creation of a special design for molten sulphur tanks. This required a 17 m long vertical pump that had to be lowered in from the top to avoid tapping the tank at the bottom. VDMA's Stephan Näckel and Per Karlsson describe this technical development.

Progressing cavity pump developed for down-hole applications

10 June 2009

R&M Energy Systems has launched a new line of Moyno high temperature down-hole pumps.

R&M Energy Systems says that the Moyno HTD™ pumps offer solutions in high temperature applications that previously could not use down-hole progressing cavity pumps.
The new line includes the Moyno® HTD350 down-hole pump that has an elastomeric stator mechanically secured to the stator tube for greater temperature and chemical resistance. The Moyno HTD350 is capable of handling down-hole temperatures of up to 350°F (177°C). The mechanical design means the stator elastomer is secured without using any bonding agent between the elastomer and the stator tube. The pump is compatible with steam injection applications without the need to remove the stator from the well.
R&M Energy Systems adds that models available include versions offering 95 BFPD per 100 and up to 6,000 foot (1,829 m) lift, as well 275 BFPD per 100 rpm and up to 5,400 foot (1,646 m) lift. There is also a model offering 500 BFPD per 100 rpm and up to 4,000 foot (1,220 m) lift.
