Top Reasons Not to use Bronze or Stainless Steel Impellers and Pumps for Corrosive Applications

HOBOKEN, NJ / ACCESSWIRE / May 7, 2021 / For over 100 years, Sims Pump Valve Company has been a leader in pump technology. Sims Pump manufactures machined, structural-engineered pumps, impellers, casing rings, sleeves, bearings, bushings, mechanical seals, and more for centrifugal pumps. Offering innovative solutions for customers, SIMS specializes in solving balance, cavitation, corrosion, electrolysis, erosion, and radial thrust problems.

With most pumps and pump parts coming directly, or indirectly, from out of the Country, the reliability, delivery, and quality of materials and products for pumps and pumping systems have substantially deteriorated in the past few years forcing Customers to replace, or repair products much more rapidly.

Bronze and Stainless Steel Impellers & Pumps corrode and erode when exposed to corrosive mediums such as Seawater, Brine, Sewage, Waste Water, Chlorine, Bromine, and many Chemicals which makes them subject to premature failure and performance deterioration. They are also subject to Cavitation, Electrolysis, Pump Wash-out, Casting Defects, and Cracks. These defects shorten the life of the pump and adversely affect pump performance & efficiency.

Bronze, Stainless Steel, & Duplex Impellers are much heavier than Structural Composites like SIMSITE® manufactured by SIMS PUMP. SIMSITE® Pumps and Impellers are designed using state-of-the-art CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamic) techniques and are 85% less weight, and much more efficient. SIMSITE® Pumps and Impellers are designed specifically for each Customer's performance requirements, which enables the Operating Point to be the Best Efficiency Point.

Instead of repairing your pump, or replacing the old pump with a new pump of the same material, type, or quality, a much better solution would be to upgrade these parts and pumps with SIMSITE® Structural Composite Products that last much longer!

SIMSITE® Products have excellent mechanical properties as well as being light-weight, corrosion, erosion and cavitation resistant. These machined structural composite pumps, impellers, and other pump upgrades not only last longer, but they also reduce maintenance, repair, and energy expenses, which allows the Customer to realize significant life-cycle and monetary savings. The implementation of these superior pumps, impellers, and other pump part upgrades directly contributes to the increase in pump efficiency and eliminates corrosion, erosion, cavitation, electrolysis, rotor imbalance, premature bearing, seal, and motor failure.
