Pumps play a key role in power generation processes by circulating fluids required for cooling, lubrication and other important functions in power systems. A power generation pump is a specialised piece of equipment that is designed to keep power plants running smoothly by ensuring the efficient movement of working fluids within the system.
The non-self-priming plastic centrifugal hermetic chemical pumps with magnetic coupling of the DB series are one of the most popular chemical pumps in the pump segment with a capacity of up to 50 m3/h. The pumps are ideal for pumping aggressive liquids such as sodium hydroxide and hypochlorite, sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, alkalis, various corrosive mixtures, solvent, wastewater with chemical impurities. The concentration of suspended particles should not exceed 1.25 mg/cubic cm.
The SP series plastic centrifugal sealed chemical pumps with magnetic coupling are ideal for pumping aggressive liquids, various corrosive mixtures, solvent, wastewater with chemical impurities. The concentration of suspended solids should be no more than 1.25 mg/cubic cm. All pump components in contact with the medium are free of metal parts. Thus, no oxidation of the medium occurs in these pumps. The pumps are used even for media where contact with the atmosphere is not permitted.
The Wanner Hydra-Cell G-Series process pumps are highly efficient and reliable for transferring corrosive, non-lubricating and abrasive liquids, injecting and spraying a wide range of fluids. The pumps are equally suitable for high and low pressure applications. The sealed design reduces maintenance and repair costs and minimises the cost of spare parts compared to other pump types. The pumps are available with SAE, ANSI or DIN flanges and IEC or NEMA motor mounts. The equipment is ATEX certified.
General purpose pumps are widely used in all areas of industrial production around the world due to their gentle handling of the fluid during pumping, as well as their simple and robust design and minimal maintenance. Thanks to the standard connection dimensions, the pumps can be combined with any motor and other drive elements that comply with NEMA or IEC standards.
The pumps are used in various enterprises, industries, in the most difficult operating conditions, ensuring smooth fluid transfer. The pumps are suitable for pumping liquids with low and high viscosity, as well as for pumping abrasive, sticky, crushing and foaming liquids. The pumps are particularly suited for handling products with solid particles. The suction capacity is max. 5m/s. The pumps deliver regular, linear, pulsation-free and measured flow. Quiet operation without vibration.
Pneumatic diaphragm pump for standard operating conditions are one of the most popular series on the market. They are available in a wide range of sizes (1/4" - 3") and are used to handle general-purpose liquids such as clean water, process water, mildly aggressive liquids, liquids with a moderate content of small inclusions, oil products, etc. They are often used in the ceramic, chemical and paint and varnish industries, as well as in the wastewater and utilities sectors.

The range of drum pumps includes plastic and metal models used for emptying containers, barrels, tanks, medium-duty containers and hoppers. The range of centrifugal pumps includes stainless steel pumps, ETFE-coated process pumps, plastic pumps made of polypropylene and PVDF for aggressive, difficult chemicals.
With sufficiently high power and appropriate design features, mixing devices help to achieve maximum solubility in a viscous liquid, even of solid particles of a suspension. ASCO PUMPS offers you to buy industrial mixers for your needs. This is not a standard product, so ASCO Mixers can develop mixers according to individual customer requests: using different types and diameters of impellers, with different speeds, which leads to different levels of power consumption.
Sanitary applications place unique demands on solids handling, product integrity, thorough cleaning, high efficiency and minimal downtime. With more than 60 different plate sizes to choose from, as well as technologies such as Energy-saver, Energy-saver+, Duraflow and Easyflow, APV ensures that your process requirements are met with the best possible solution. Solutions that minimise energy consumption by increasing heat transfer efficiency. Solutions that reduce plate fouling and provide easy equipment maintenance - all to minimise downtime and keep your process running smoothly.
In some cases, tubular heat exchangers are used for pasteurization and sterilization of dairy products. Unlike plate heat exchangers, these heat exchangers have no contact points in the product channel and can therefore be used to handle products whose particles are limited to a certain size. The maximum particle size depends on the pipe diameter. When operating in sterilization mode, a tube heat exchanger is less likely to need to be stopped for cleaning than a plate heat exchanger. In terms of heat transfer, a tube heat exchanger is less efficient than a plate heat exchanger.
Industrial pumps for power generation are used in a variety of applications, including thermal and nuclear power plants, hydroelectric power plants, and renewable energy sources. These pumps are capable of delivering high performance and reliability under extreme operating conditions, which is critical for the stability of energy supply.
Selecting the right pump for a power generation application requires attention to parameters such as performance, head, energy efficiency, and compatibility with the operating environment. It is important to consider the operating conditions, including temperature, pressure and chemical composition of the fluids, to ensure the durability and reliability of the equipment.
There are many types of pumps used in the power generation industry, including centrifugal, volumetric, vortex and other types. The choice of a particular type of pump depends on the specifics of the tasks it must perform in the power generation system.
Each type of pump has its own advantages and disadvantages. For example, centrifugal pumps have high performance and are suitable for pumping large volumes of liquid, but can be less efficient at high pressures. Positive displacement pumps, on the other hand, provide high head and precise delivery, but are more complex in design and cost.
To ensure the reliable and uninterrupted operation of pumping equipment, it is important to carry out regular maintenance, including checking the condition, cleaning and replacing worn components. Effective maintenance helps prevent accidents and reduces the cost of repair and replacement.
The field of power generation pumps is constantly evolving with the introduction of new technologies and innovative solutions aimed at improving the efficiency, reliability and environmental friendliness of equipment. Research and development in the fields of materials science, hydrodynamics and automation are opening up new opportunities to improve pump performance and adapt to changing operating conditions.
Pumps for power generation are an integral part of the energy infrastructure, ensuring efficient and reliable operation of various types of power plants. Proper selection, maintenance and continuous improvement of pumping equipment contribute to the energy efficiency and environmental safety of power generation processes.
