Page 6 of Reciprocating Process Pumps to API Standards by RAM Pumps

quality materials and design assure quality performance the current range of process pressure pumps from ram pumps is high quality powerful and reliable to match the exacting requirements of industries such as oil and gas both on and off shore and chemical processing the concept follows a modern design appearance that has come to be easily recognised by users of high-pressure pumps the technical specification is based on the current american petroleum institute standard 674 this being accepted as the industry standard around the world the products have a proven track record of excellence in performance with a no-nonsense philosophy of quality engineering in all areas of construction our process pumps have an almost infinite variation of build options that stem from over 25 years experience constructing special purpose pumps and pump units the pumps as a philosophy do not have integral gearboxes so as not to limit the exact speed and power available to the client power is typically supplied to the pump by tefc electric or any degree of special build or explosion proof motor and a gearbox v-belts or timing belts various other types of drives are available including dc motors torque converters ac inverters diesel or gas engines or variable capacity mechanical or hydraulic power packs 316 stainless steel liquid heads are the preferred construction but there are many options on materials of construction such as carbon steel low and high temperature alloys duplex alloy or hasteloy there are also an infinite variety of packing arrangements that can be fitted coming from a continuing development program that has been running for over 25 years 2
