PUMP - A device which moves, compresses, or alters the pressure of a fluid,
such as water or air, being conveyed through a natural or artificial channel.
Many pumps are less than efficient or damaged,
which is costly for operation and maintenance.

Fluid Flow Situations
• Corrosion / Erosion
• Chemical attack
• Wear / Entrainment
• Bi-metallic corrosion
• Cavitation
• Performance deterioration
Belzona offers durable
polymeric repairs and barrier
coatings to protect pumps from
all the above damages.

Pump Energy Consumption
• Pumping systems account for nearly 20% of the world’s
electrical energy demand.
• Pumps use 25-50% energy in certain industrial plant
operations.
• Typically the energy cost of a pump represents the biggest
fraction of life time cost, much more than the capital cost.

Facts for Pumps & Belzona Solutions
Alert! New pumps do not deliver their maximum potential due to
frictional losses. After several years of use, pump efficiency is
reduced, sometimes 15 – 20% below design efficiency.
Solutions! Belzona 1341 has shown performance gains of up to
7% on NEW pumps. Used pumps refurbished by Belzona can
achieve still greater efficiency.
No Cost! Refurbishment and coating of an existing pump with
Belzona techniques can typically pay for itself in energy savings
within 3-18 months.
Proven! Belzona 1341 (Supermetalglide) is a unique efficiency
enhancement coating product, tested and certified by world-
famous pump OEMs and pump users.

The coating was responsible for 5% to 8% of the
efficiency increase in high pressure Johnston pumps.
This was translated to nearly
$5,000 – 8,000 / year in electrical savings per pump.

In pump 5a, there was 12 % decrease in electrical usage
from 100 amps to 88 amps. The motor operated at 4160 volts.
Assuming the resale of saved electricity at 4.4 cents / kWh,
the total electrical savings were $28,411 per year.
