Pump Material for HF Alky Service

Pump Material for HF Alky Service

(OP)
I'm specing a pump for Flare Drum in HF Alky unit. API shows S-9 material but I assume that's for concentrated acid. Looking for actual service experience.

RE: Pump Material for HF Alky Service

Without knowing details I can't tell you 100%, but Alloy C276 is used in canned pumps for this duty.  Hope that helps.

Companies that I know of that have done this successfully are HMD Kontro (Sundyne) and Hermetic.  Of the two, I prefer Hermetic, but HMD are very fine pumps too.
