Chemical Processing
Wilfley pumps handle the tough challenges common in Chemical Processing plants.
- Wilfley offers pumps in a wide variety of special alloys developed to overcome corrosive challenges:
- Sulfuric acid
- Nitric acid
- Phosphoric acid
- HFSA
- Wilfley’s proprietary hardened alloys offer both corrosive and abrasive wear life to handle abrasive challenges:
- Filter feed
- Thickener underflow
- Scrubber systems
- Sealing challenges; liquids that crystallize such as electrolytes, caustics, liquids that are at saturation temperatures, operations near pump cavitation, Wilfley’s dynamic seal is well proven to tackle difficult sealing challenges:.
- Liquids that crystallize such as electrolytes
- Caustics
- Liquids that are at saturation temperatures
- Operations near pump cavitation
- Wilfley dynamic seals avoid the rubbing contact of mechanical seals that generate heat and help to address safety issues:
- Ammonium nitrate
- Nitro cellulous explosives
