沃基肖泵应用

据报道，海上平台的低效运行泵（从下水道或者类似的污水管中泵送污水，对海上平台来说是一个巨大的挑战），使石油公司正面临巨大的成本问题。沃基肖旋转活塞泵适于条件恶劣的北海工况，设备周期成本低，并且可提供服务周期的预测。

A poorly performing pump on an offshore platform, presented a costly challenge to the oil company. Bryan Orchard looks at the solution AxFlow provided; a Waukesha rotary lobe piston pump which could stand up to the harsh North Sea conditions, has low life cycle costs and can realise predictable service intervals

因为沙滩中含有大量的泥浆碎石，使得在当地70度的高温下，泵送物质成分非常复杂，由于海水粘度高，腐蚀性强，特殊的化学工况不得不缩短泵的维修周期。

Pumping produced water from closed drain and similar applications is a challenge frequently encountered on offshore platforms. This is because the presence of a high sand content makes the slurry abrasive. However, the problem is compounded by temperatures of approximately 70°

石油公司基于这些因素，急需一台易维修、生命周期成本低的泵浦。自2003 年起英国AxFlow流体公司，专为这类石油公司，提供多功能沃基肖旋转活塞泵，从液态气体到粗糙的碎石等多种工况设备的需要。低必需气蚀余量（NPSHr）能够应对气蚀工况的挑战，干燥运转能力，低生命周期成本，，坚固的菱形外形设计，能够隔离潮湿环境，并抵制液体腐蚀，易于维修（每次只需一两个小时的人工维修）这就是沃基肖泵大受欢迎的原因。
