availability of standard parts from the Stock Depot,
along with the excellent HMD Kontro sub-ANSI pump,
the broad range of special designs, and its API pumps
(GT, HPGS, SP, GSPV, GSPLF, multi-stage, etc.)
differentiate HMD Kontro from the competition.

HMD Success Stories
• HPGS - For a condensate polishing application at a nuclear plant with powerful 400 psig suction pressure,
HPGS pumps replaced API pumps with Chesterton seals that were incapable of handling the required
application pressure.
• HPGS - For a 500 psig suction pressure water boosting application, a model HPGS pmp was put in service for a
chemical processor.
• HPGSP - A wash water (sour water) application at a refinery with 1300 psig suction pressure needed to more
efficiently clean heat exchangers without taking them offline was solved with installation of HPGSP pumps.
• GSP - Pumping HF acid at a refinery alkylation unit in Acid Rerun Service, GSP pumps replaced top-top end
suction centrifugal mechanically sealed pumps.
• GSP pumps were installed to transfer benzene between storage tanks in the tank farm area of a local refinery.
• GSA pumps in caustic service for an electronics manufacturer replaced mechanically sealed ANSI pumps.

What are Magnet Drive Sealless Pumps?
The sealless pump is a conventional centrifugal pump without packed housing or mechanical seals.
The dynamic seal normally used to seal the impeller shaft has been replaced by a static containment
shell to form a completely sealed liquid-end / pressure boundary.
In a sealless pump, prime-mover energy is transmitted to the sealed-liquid end by a bank of external magnets
passing force through the containment shell to the impeller shaft.
The Facts:
Mechanical seals on pumps are designed to
maintain their seal as long as possible by leak-
ing small amounts of fluid to keep the seal faces
lubricated. The leaked fluid is then boiled off
(fugitive emission).
Seals, like bearings, must wear. As they wear,
the faces lose their sealing effect and any
pumped liquid will seep through the seal.
A fugitive emission can be costly in terms of time, money, and safety in the workplace. Environmental
controls, occupational safety, and product liability in today’s workplace are all of paramount importance
to process plant operators.
Most companies frequently have seal maintenance or support programs in order to reduce continuous
leakage problems. Leakage involves time, extra money, and an inventory of spare parts, as well as the
inconvenience of plant downtime when replacement seals are required.
