Ceramic pistons for pressure pumps

High pressure pumps are used in a wide range of industrial applications where high pressure or high viscosity flow rates are required. Ceramic pistons are one of the key components in high-performance pumps as they guarantee excellent performance.  

THE MAIN ADVANTAGES OFFERED BY STEELCERAM CERAMIC PISTONS:  

  • High wear resistance  
  • High mechanical strength 
  • Excellent corrosion resistance 
  • Excellent abrasion resistance 
  • Increased service life 
  • Excellent surface finish 
  • Low coefficient of friction for movement 
  • Excellent chemical inertness 
  • Reduced engine noise 
  • Reduced fuel consumption  

APPLICATIONS:  

  • HIGH PRESSURE CLEANING: High pressure piston pumps are a key tool for environmentally friendly high pressure water jet cleaning. High pressure pumping is necessary in applications such as pipe cleaning, heat exchangers, cisterns, tanks, silos, and many other applications. 
  • CEMENT DEMOLITION: The powerful and robust pump units up to 600 kW / 805 HP are used for hydra demolition or deep excavation work. 
  • CO2 EXTRACTION: Specially designed and dimensioned plunger pumps safely supply the extraction process with liquid CO2 at pressures of up to 1000 bar / 14,500 psi. 
  • HYDRAULIC TESTS: Typical fields of application are hydrostatic pressure tests up to 3,000 bar / 43,500 psi on container pipes and valves. 
  • INTERNAL CLEANING OF CEMENT MIXERS: Deposits form in the mixing drum, which quickly become hard and increase with each application. The high-pressure cleaning system provides an economical, ecological, and efficient solution. 
  • OIL & GAS INDUSTRY: Process pump units for refineries and similar plants must meet the highest safety standards. Our experience and track record provides our customers with the necessary safety. 
  • REVERSE OSMOSIS: Reliable seawater purification system to ensure safe drinking water. High levels of efficiency with a constant and reliable pressure source.  
  • UREA PRODUCTION: In the fertilizer industry technical ceramics are used in all pistons as they resist the abrasive agents present in urea. 
  • SURFACE TREATMENT: High pressure piston pumps are also used in applications where aggressive surface treatment is required to ensure a clean surface prior to the application of paints, such as on marine vessels. 
  • NON-WOVEN FABRIC MANUFACTURING: Reliable high-pressure pumps are used in the process of mechanical interlacing of fibers by water jets for the manufacture of non-woven fabrics.
