pump vendors (high temperature fluids)
(OP)
i am looking for pumps that can deliver at process fluid temperatures of 95 deg Celcius and above. Any leads on vendors in the US or Europe highly appreciated.





RE: pump vendors (high temperature fluids)
What head available and required? What flow rate is required? Process fluid properties - density, viscosity, bubble point, is it abrasive or chemically agressive? Toxicity? Flammability? Any odd rheological properties?
95 deg C is fairly trivial on its own.

RE: pump vendors (high temperature fluids)
If hydrocarbons, then you should have API 610 pump; several manufacturers:
Flowserve, ITT-Goulds, Sulzer, Clyde-Union, KSB are all solid manufacturers that have been building these for many years.
As Matt says, the 95degC is not much of a problem at all in itself; lots of pumps can handle that. Style of pump will be determined by the flow, head, and fluid properties.
Tell us a little more about those and pump selection will be much easier.

What about the suction and discharge tank pressure?
Is your pressure pump motor of submersible type?

Submersable pumps don't like hot sumps.
The motor cannot reject enough heat. Lubrication breaks down.
About 130-140 C is the maximum any submersible can take.
Try a different type of pump
Can you use a cantilever sump pump ?
