Repair Parts and Components

Availability depends on the manufacturer, model and equipment configuration. Model numbers, nameplate photos, part numbers, drawings and equipment photos can help identify the correct components.

Diaphragms and Valve Balls

Replacement diaphragms in PTFE, Santoprene, Viton and other materials, along with check balls and seats for air-operated double-diaphragm pumps. The pump model and fluid determine the correct materials.

Rotors and Stators

Progressive cavity rotors and stators for viscous and abrasive fluid applications. The pump model and stage configuration identify the correct replacement.

Tubes and Hoses

Peristaltic pump tubes and hoses in chemical-resistant materials. The pump model and fluid determine the correct tube material and size.

Seals and Gaskets

Mechanical seals, lip seals, O-rings and gaskets in materials compatible with the pumped fluid. The pump model, shaft size and fluid identify the correct components.

Gears and Bearings

Internal gears, rotors and bearings for gear, lobe and progressive cavity pumps. These are identified by the pump model and internal component part numbers.

Magnetic Couplings

Magnetic drive couplings and containment shells for sealless pumps. The pump model and drive configuration identify the correct replacement.

Valves and Manifolds

Directional valves, check valves and manifold components for metering and dosing pumps. The pump model and valve configuration identify the correct components.

Manufacturer-Specific Repair Kits

Repair kits that bundle seals, valves, diaphragms and wear components for specific specialty pump models. The pump model and serial number identify the correct kit.

Quote Guide

These are common details that can help us prepare a faster and more accurate quote. Requirements vary by product and application, so send whatever information you currently have.

Application

Pump type, manufacturer, model, fluid name, concentration and temperature. The fluid determines the materials, elastomers and pump style needed.

Fluid Properties

Viscosity, specific gravity, solids content and abrasiveness. Shear sensitive fluids may require progressive cavity or peristaltic pumps.

Performance

Required flow, discharge pressure and suction conditions. Some specialty pumps need specific priming arrangements or flooded suction.

Materials

Materials of construction, elastomers and connection sizes. Chemical compatibility charts help confirm the right materials for the fluid.

Power and Duty

Power source, duty cycle and hazardous location requirements. Air operated pumps may be preferred where electricity is unavailable or hazardous.

Priming

Priming requirements and whether the pump can run dry. Self priming and air operated diaphragm pumps can often run dry without damage.

Applications and Selection

Chemical and Corrosive Service

Finish Thompson and March magnetic drive pumps handle corrosive and difficult fluids using sealless construction. AMPCO pumps serve chemical, food, pharmaceutical and sanitary applications. Material selection depends on the fluid concentration and temperature.

Metering and Dosing

Neptune metering and dosing pumps deliver precise, controlled volumes of fluid for chemical treatment, water treatment and process applications. Diaphragm, peristaltic and piston configurations are available depending on the accuracy and pressure requirements.

Air Operated Double Diaphragm

ARO air operated double diaphragm pumps use compressed air to move fluid through two diaphragm chambers. They can run dry, handle viscous and solids laden fluids, and are used in chemical transfer, drum unloading, mining, food and wastewater applications.

Progressive Cavity and Viscous

Progressive cavity pumps handle viscous, abrasive and shear sensitive fluids using a helical rotor inside a stator. They are used in wastewater, food, chemical and sludge applications where consistent flow is needed regardless of viscosity.

Sealless and Magnetic Drive

Magnetic drive pumps contain the fluid within a sealed housing with no dynamic shaft seal, which is useful for hazardous, toxic or valuable fluids that cannot leak. Burks and March magnetic drive pumps serve chemical and laboratory applications.
