Safe and long-lasting pumps, which can be used for the most extreme applications and conveying hazardous media. Complete reliability – even at the highest pressures and performance levels. They are used whenever conventional technologies reach their limits.
Hermetic canned motor pumps are suitable for fluid temperatures ranging from -160 °C up to +480 °C and system pressures up to 120 MPa. With power outputs from 1 kW to 690 kW, we offer canned motor pumps with the largest capacity on the market.
Traditionally for clean liquids, the conventional method for a pump system with either hazardous liquids, high temperatures or high suction pressures, or a combination of these, has been to utilize double mechanical seal systems (API plan 53b etc). The latter often costs the same or more than the actual pump, in addition to more frequent service intervals required. In addition: the total length of the installation is a challenge.
By utilizing the Hermetic Canned pump solution, the conventional mechanical seal is deleted and the customer gains a pump solution with much higher MTBF (Mean Time Between Failure), as well as a much more compact pump solution as the pump’s hydrodynamic bearings are the motor bearings themselves.
Canned pumps for Oil&Gas Energy

The Traditional Oil&Gas Energy market is looking for more unmanned operations as well much higher MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) on all rotating units, as the need for reduced OPEX is a key element.
Operational reliability, cost- and functional efficiency is key. In view of the difficulties associated with maintenance of mechanical seals, plant designers and operators have increasingly recognised the advantages of the canned motor pump.
Hermetic pumps are generally less susceptible to repairs than conventional chemical pumps with mechanical seals and thus have a longer service life. As such, in addition to absolute leak tightness and high reliability, hermetic pumps offer the further advantage of minimal maintenance combined with high availability.
Canned motor pumps in accordance with API 685 are used wherever no leakage is allowed and the highest demands are placed on reliability and availability; especially when conveying toxic, explosive and generally environmentally harmful media.

Wind turbines need a frequency inverter to adapt the resulting frequency to the grid frequency. The conversion process releases a large amount of heat during operation that needs to be dissipated. This is a major problem mainly in offshore installations due to poor accessibility and maintainability.
For this reason, offshore wind turbines often need durable components. A popular design of the cooling unit is the use of a refrigerant consisting of a water-glycol mixture in combination with a canned motor pump.

What to expect
Durable, lightweight unit for cooling converters in wind turbines with a water-glycol mixture
To cool the motor and lubricate the plain bearings, part of the flow is branched off at the periphery of the impeller and, after flowing through the motor, returned to the suction side of the impeller through the hollow shaft. This design is suitable for pumping non-critical liquids with low vapour pressure.
