Glycol Pumps

Operating Pressure: 100 to 2000 psi

Circulation Rate: 3 to 450 gph

• A pump used for circulating glycol within a dehydration system.

• A pump used to circulate amine within a desulphurizer system.

What is a Glycol Pump?

Features

• No auxiliary power required

• Eliminates need for level control and dump valve at absorber

• Low gas consumption

• Completely sealed system prevents glycol loss

• Only two moving assemblies

• Hydraulic “cushioned” check valves withremovable seats of hardened stainless steel

• Circulation Rates: SC Series 8 - 200 gph PV Series 3 - 450 gph

High pressure wet glycol goes to Glycol Pump.

DRY glycol falls through the bubble caps, as the WET gas travels up through the bubble caps.

Pump Trouble Shooting

• Loss of fluid circulationRunaway pumpHammering sound

Pump skips

• Pump runs until normal temp. is reached

• Erratic pump speed

• Pump stalls

• Leaking check valvesValve body sealDart seal

• Piston, piston rod seals

• Suction Lines too small

• Traps in wet glycol power piping send alternate slugs of glycol-then gas

• Plugged lines in dehy system• Swollen O-rings• Plugged passages in pump• Blocked check valve• Loose actuator

• Gas blow-by to wet discharge

• Excessive service required

• ‘D’ slide seal or port plates

• Pilot piston seal failure

• Poor Maintenance• Poor filtration• Chemical
