A pressure powered pump performs the same liquid transport functions as vane or centrifugal pumps. But since the pressure powered pump is based on an entirely different operating concept, it has fewer moving parts than conventional pumps.
Since it is a positive displacement pump, a pressure powered pump has no motors, starters, shafts rotating mechanical seals or impellers. Instead, a pressure powered pump uses steam (or any compatible inert gas) under pressure as the motive force to lift or pump liquids.
With none of these maintenance-intensive components to leak, wear or fail, pressure powered pumps are naturally more reliable than conventional pumps. Therefore, pressure powered pumps will work longer, with less maintenance and far less downtime.
