What we see

In polymer processing, pumps play a critical role in ensuring consistent product quality by precisely controlling flow rate and pressure. However, we often encounter pumps with significant polymer buildup, which can lead to a range of issues that disrupt production. Common problems include reduced flow rates, decreased efficiency, pressure fluctuations, and even damage to seals and gaskets. Over time, these deposits can cause malfunctions, increasing the risk of unplanned downtime and costly repairs.

The internal components of polymer pumps are particularly susceptible to fouling from accumulated residue, which is challenging to remove without causing further wear. Identifying these issues early is crucial to prevent performance degradation and extend the life of the pump.
