Flowrox Expulse designed to assist during pump and dampener maintenance

Flowrox, a global leader in heavy-duty industrial valve manufacturing and services, has announced the launch of the Flowrox Expulse™ product, designed to assist during pump and dampener maintenance by reducing noise and vibration associated with traditional methods; which can lead to pipe damage that can cause breakage and a loss of revenue. Already known as a leader in the manufacture of industrial valves and pumps, Flowrox says it is “an authority in the industry when it comes to pipe dynamics and its extensive knowledge and experience are applied into every new product design.”

The Flowrox Expulse was designed for use by companies in the mining and other industries where pipes and valves are used to move materials or fluids using pressure; and Flowrox’s reputation in these industries covers multiple product lines and solutions. Traditional pulsating pump dampeners are known to produce unbalanced shaking that can result in failure or operational drawbacks, which in turn require additional add-ons and devices to counter its challenges. “Engineering innovation and ingenuity have helped Flowrox design a complete solution for this effective pulsation dampener system, which quiets noise while settling pressure peaks and ensuring a continuous fluid flow.”

One of the most noticeable features on the Flowrox Expulse is the product’s ability to reduce energy consumption in your operation by up to 10%, largely as a result of its absorption of up to 90% of pulsations. In addition, the device’s reduction in the hammering of the pipeline and pump can lead to extended operational lifetime for the pump bearing and gearbox – two critical components in pipeline operations that face wear and tear in high-performance environments.

“A shutdown due to a threat to pipe integrity can not only be costly, but hamper the ability to generate revenue for clients who depend on this type of equipment,” said Todd Loudin, President of Flowrox. “Our company has designed the Flowrox Expulse to help reduce the chance of pipe damage and breakage in a cost-effective manner.” The robust solution offered by the Flowrox Expulse flexible pulsation dampener prevents the collection of sediment, particles or residue thanks to its built-in self-cleaning operation – further adding to the benefits of ease of installation and care-free maintenance. “Standing behind its product’s quality performance, Flowrox includes a one-year guarantee and will replace the hose set in the event of a breakage while using the Flowrox Expulse system.”
