SOME OF THE SOLUTIONS WE'VE DESIGNED
Case Studies
Silty Collection Well in SC
Old Problem
Previous pump required at a minimum weekly cleaning and maintenance – sometimes daily.
Solution
XR-56 Plus was installed 5-22-2014 and had over 500,000 cycles before cleaning was required. To date no parts have been replaced.
Condensate Sump Reasonably High Temps in KY
Old Problem
The two previous pumps installed in this sump required quarterly cleaning and would often stall.
Solution
This is one of the original XR-56 Plus demo pumps installed on 6-12-2013. The XR56 stopped after three months in operation, it was pulled and the cause was a disconnected air line. Replaced the PTC fitting with a barb and the pump has not been touched since.
Condensate Sump in TN
Old Problem
Previous pump would stall every day and required a daily site visit.
Solution
A XR-56 PlusC – communication pump was installed on 4-15-2015. Since the pump was equipped with communication we could monitor the pump operated flawlessly the initial days. The pump would then go into time out (indicating something was out of compliance). The pump would auto start every hour and attempt to cycle – sometimes cycling normally –sometimes a dozen cycles before it went back into time out. It is suspected that during certain times of the day there may be high head pressure causing the issue. The pump is currently operating without any issues – one very happy site technician.
Gas Well 95’ in WI
Old Problem
Previous pump required a weekly “bump” to take it out of stall mode. The pump would be pulled and cleaned twice per year and a complete rebuild each year.
Solution
XR-56 Plus pump was installed 6-5-2013 the pump has over 1.2 million cycles and has never been pulled. The Module was up-graded with communication and has over 240,000 cycles. The pump exhaust did freeze twice last winter around minus18 degrees. The exhaust un-thawed and the pump automatically restarted.
