Glycol Pumps
Operating Pressure:
100 to 2000 psi
Circulation Rate:
3 to 450 gph
What is a Glycol Pump?
• A pump used for circulating glycol within a
dehydration system.
• A pump used to circulate amine within a
desulphurizer system.
Features
• No auxiliary power required
• Eliminates need for level control and dump valve at
absorber
• Low gas consumption
• Completely sealed system prevents glycol loss
• Only two moving assemblies
• Hydraulic “cushioned” check valves with
removable seats of hardened stainless steel
• Circulation Rates:
SC Series 8 - 200 gph
PV Series 3 - 450 gph

Pump Trouble Shooting
•
Loss of fluid circulation
Runaway pump
Hammering sound
Pump skips
•
Pump runs until normal temp. is
reached
•
Erratic pump speed
•
Pump stalls
•
Leaking check valves
Valve body seal
Dart seal
•
Piston, piston rod seals
•
Suction Lines too small
•
Traps in wet glycol power piping
send alternate slugs of glycol-then
gas

Plugged lines in dehy system
Swollen O-rings
Plugged passages in pump
