HP Plus Centrifugal Pump
The HP Plus Pump is a multi-stage centrifugal pump capable of producing a full range of volumes and pressures. Designed for demanding, high-pressure applications, the HP Plus functions as a reliable high pressure pump and is part of a broader class of engineered HP pumps used across industrial and oil & gas services where uptime, durability, and lifecycle cost matter.
Engineered HP Pumps for Industrial Service
This HP pump platform is engineered to provide flexibility in configuration while maintaining consistent hydraulic performance, making it suitable for both continuous-duty and variable operating conditions. As a high pressure pump, it is well suited for services requiring elevated discharge pressures and stable operation.
Applications:
The HP Plus Pump is commonly used in the following applications:
- Fluid transfer
- Gas Processing
- Mine Dewatering
- Pipeline Booster
- Saltwater Disposal
- Water Injection
- Water Flooding
These applications benefit from the HP pump’s multi-stage design, which allows it to function as a high pressure pump by generating higher discharge pressures while maintaining stable flow. This design approach is common across high-performance HP pumps used in critical service.
Fluids Handled:
The HP Plus HP pump is designed to handle a variety of clean and aggressive fluids, including:
- Amine
- Condensate
- Glycol
- Liquid natural gas
- Oil & Water
- Saltwater
Material selection and internal component options allow this high pressure pump to be tailored to corrosive or abrasive fluid conditions.
Markets Served:
Markets that commonly rely on the HP Plus Pump and similar HP pumps include:
- Chemical
- Industrial
- Oil & Gas
- Refining
- Pipeline
Design Philosophy & Reliability
The HP Plus Pump was designed with reliability and cost reduction in mind. Each pump is individually assembled by trained personnel and fully tested to industry API standards.
This approach ensures consistent build quality, predictable performance, and long-term reliability in critical service environments where dependable high pressure pumps are required.
Skid Design & Engineering
The HP Plus skid design is the result of a century’s worth of engineering, design and the technically advanced COSMOS® design software. This combination of fabrication and engineering experience coupled with the modern finite element analysis that COSMOS® brings has allowed us to develop a skid design with superior strength, integrity and unsurpassed ease of installation.
The skid layout is optimized for structural rigidity, reduced vibration, and simplified field installation, helping minimize total installed cost for high pressure pump installations.
Each HP Plus HP pump is individually assembled and fully tested to API 11S2 standards, ensuring reliable operation and repeatable performance in critical service.
Materials & Construction
- Stages & Hydraulic Components: Built with hand finished Ni-Resist type 1 stages and a high nickel content steel, the HP Plus is excellent at withstanding hostile or aggressive fluids. The staging configuration is set so that the construction is built in compression. We also offer stage coating for those applications requiring additional protection.
- Shafting Options: All pump shafting comes in K-500 Monel® as standard. Stainless and/or Inconel® high strength shafting are also available.
- Bearings & Wear Resistance: We offer abrasive resistant tungsten carbide (TC) bearings to add radial stability in aggressive fluid conditions. Our pumps can be assembled in a multitude of Ni-Resist/TC configurations including up to 1:1 carbide to stage ratio. GRAPHALLOY® bushings are also available as an option for applications requiring self-lubricating bearing materials or enhanced dry-run tolerance.
- Pump Heads, Bases, and Housings: All PumpWorks centrifugal pump heads and bases are of high quality stainless steel and each is assembled with tungsten carbide bushing and sleeve as a standard.
Design Features & Maintenance Benefits
The HP Plus HP pump skid incorporates design features intended to simplify installation, protect the pump from external loads, and reduce maintenance time:
- Adjustable V-shaped pump cradles for reliable centering and alignment
- Adjustable discharge flange support to reduce static pipe loads
- Bolt-on skid extensions to accommodate future pump length changes
- Heavy-duty, bi-rotational thrust chamber with rear pull-out capability
- Standard API-682 seal chamber with optional API-610 seal flush systems
- Motor mounting adjustment screws and removable motor pads for flexible motor upgrades
- Intake and discharge drip pans with drain plugs for spill containment
Configuration Flexibility
The HP Plus HP pump can be configured to meet specific flow, pressure, material, and installation requirements. Multi-stage construction enables precise performance matching for high pressure pump duties, while material and bearing options support long service life in challenging environments typical of HP pumps operating in demanding applications.
