| Increasing the efficiency of Pumps |
|
|
Our modernization concept has repeatedly proved itself by not only addressing the problems of existing pumps, but also the system in which they operate.
The performance, efficiency and eco friendliness of retrofitted pumps can deliver improved performance, lower CO2 emissions and considerable power savings.

| Retrofitting other manufacturers’ designs |
|
|
With our in-house specialist re-engineering techniques, it is possible to retrofit any make or type of pump, allowing the enhancement of non-Sulzer installations. More | |

| Improvement of reliability, availability and pump efficiency on boiler feed pumps |
|
|
Boiler feed pumps play a decisive part in thermal power stations. As the largest individual power consumers in the system, they demand about 3 to 5 % of the energy generated by the station. More | |
| |
| Reliable power for Moscow |
|
|
The standardized 300 MW power stations that supply Moscow with electricity were equipped with nineteen Soviet-made main boiler feed pumps. More | |

| 22 % increase in oil revenue on axially split pipeline pumps |
|
|
After operating the Western Route Export Pipeline for over one year with Sulzer axially split multi-stage pumps installed the Azerbaijan International Operating Company (AIOC) and the Georgian Pipeline Company (GPC) wished to increase throughput More | |

| 21 % additional flow on a FPSO |
|
|
Before commissioning of the BP Schiehallion FPSO (Floating Production, Storage and Offloading) vessel, it was realized that there was a severe bottleneck in the seawater injection system. More | |
| |
| Design and efficiency improved on key North Sea platform |
|
|
One of the largest non Sulzer offshore seawater injection pumps in the world did not meet the client’s expectations with regard to maintenance intervals and operational efficiency. More | |
| |
| Improved reliability, reduced running costs and environmental protection |
|
|
A major German chemical company had environmental problems with visible leakage and consequent release of toxic media from the mechanical seal of a heavy duty process pump. More | |
