The Process of Rebuilding and Refurbishing Goulds Pumps

At Protech Energy Services, we believe that maintaining your Goulds pumps with expert rebuilding and refurbishment is the key to extending their lifespan and optimizing their performance. Here’s a step-by-step look at the process we follow to ensure your pumps are restored to peak condition:

1. Inspection and Assessment

The process begins with a thorough inspection of your Goulds pump. Our team of technicians evaluates the condition of the pump to identify signs of wear, corrosion, and component failure. This assessment helps us determine the extent of repairs needed and whether rebuilding or refurbishing is the best course of action.

2. Disassembly and Cleaning

After the initial assessment, the pump is carefully disassembled to expose all internal parts. Each component undergoes a deep cleaning to remove debris, scale, and buildup. This step is critical to ensuring that worn-out parts can be accurately identified and replaced.

3. Replacement of Worn Parts

During the disassembly process, any damaged or worn parts—such as impellers, seals, bearings, or casings—are replaced with genuine Goulds parts or high-quality alternatives. This ensures your pump maintains its original performance and reliability.

4. Precision Machining

For components that can be refurbished rather than replaced, precision machining is used to restore them to factory specifications. This includes processes like grinding and polishing to eliminate any imperfections or wear patterns that may have developed over time.

5. Reassembly and Testing

Once all parts have been cleaned, replaced, or machined, the pump is carefully reassembled. At this stage, we perform a series of rigorous tests to ensure that the refurbished pump meets or exceeds its original performance specifications. We verify factors such as flow rates, pressure levels, and overall mechanical integrity.

6. Final Inspection and Delivery

After testing, the pump undergoes a final inspection before it is returned to the client. We ensure that all specifications are met, and documentation is provided outlining the work that was done. Protech Energy Services also offers maintenance recommendations to help extend the life of your refurbished pump.

The Benefits of Rebuilding and Refurbishing Goulds Pumps

Opting for rebuilding and refurbishing services instead of purchasing new pumps offers a range of benefits, including:

• Cost Savings: Refurbishing your existing pump is often far more cost-effective than purchasing a brand-new unit.
• Reduced Downtime: With our streamlined process, we ensure that your pump is back in operation quickly, minimizing operational downtime.
• Extended Equipment Life: Regular refurbishment can significantly extend the life of your Goulds pump, providing more years of reliable service.
• Sustainability: Rebuilding pumps reduces waste and promotes sustainability by minimizing the need for new manufacturing.

The History of Goulds Pumps: A Legacy of Innovation

Goulds Pumps, now a part of ITT Corporation, has a rich history that dates back to 1848 when it was founded by Seabury S. Gould. What began as a small pump manufacturing business in Seneca Falls, New York, quickly grew into one of the most respected names in the industry.

Goulds Pumps was the first company to successfully develop all-iron pumps, which revolutionized industrial pump manufacturing at the time. Over the decades, the company has continued to push the boundaries of pump technology, becoming a leading supplier of pumps for a wide range of industries, including chemical processing, oil and gas, water treatment, and mining.

With a commitment to quality and innovation, Goulds Pumps has remained a trusted choice for businesses across the world. Today, Goulds continues to be recognized for its reliable, durable pumps that are built to withstand the toughest industrial conditions.
