Petrochem Company in Mahshahr Indigenizes Canned Motor Pumps

Ghadir Petrochemical Company in Mahshahr, Khuzestan Province, has indigenized canned motor pumps with the help of domestic knowledge-based companies.
The equipment, which used to be imported from Japan at a high cost, are now manufactured locally at 16% of the cost of the foreign counterpart, the National Petrochemical Company’s news website reported.
In refineries and petrochemical plants, centrifugal pumps are among the most common machines. Great importance is attached to their operational reliability and functional efficiency. In view of the difficulties and costs associated with the maintenance of mechanical seals, plant designers and operators have increasingly recognized the advantages of the canned motor pump.
