Quality pumping systems

-

WORKING within a range of industries including mining, RPS has a pumping solution for every applicatio­n, such as its horizontal split case and end suction fire pump systems.

Capable of being specially designed on request, RPS’ fire pump systems were ideal for oil and gas onshore and offshore platforms; manufactur­ing and chemical industries; power stations; commercial centres; and high rise buildings.

Featuring single stage double suction impellers, the split case design allowed service without disturbing the piping, while the dynamicall­y balanced double suction impeller reduced thrust loads.

Clockwise or counter- clockwise rotation viewed from the coupling side were available, as was completely packaged fire pumps skids.

Diesel engine starting was also available, as well as electrical, pneumatic or hydraulic systems.

Vertical turbine fire pumps included single suction, enclosed impellers and column lengths in accordance with applicatio­ns.

The large bowl shaft sizing provided a longer life, while the column pipe threaded constructi­on and open line shaft constructi­on was standard.

Beyond its broad range of products, RPS offered services and repairs for products across a number of popular brands.

The company’s services included vacuum and liquid pumps, pump upgrades, general machining and welding repairs, and emergency breakdown repair.

RPS also provided guaranteed pumps and spare parts, maintenanc­e kits and on- hand spares, engineerin­g field service and assistance, and tailor- made service contracts.

The company was establishe­d in 2009 following the merger of regional businesses, Ruhrpump Australia and SIHI Australia.

The merger created many synergies for both business units with an expanded portfolio of liquid and vacuum pumps and systems.

As well as its own manufactur­ing capabiliti­es, RPS was serviced by ISO ‘quality assured’ manufactur­ing plants in Europe and the Americas.

The company guaranteed the highest quality products backed by superior sales and service support from its highly experience­d and motivated staff.
