Crest Pumps

🚀 Exciting Team Update at Crest Pumps! 🚀 A few months ago, we shared Emily was leaving for travel and that we were on the lookout for a new Operations Manager. Fast forward, and a lot has changed! We are thrilled to announce that Kevin Simmons has joined our team! And with his prior pump design experience, he's already quickly moved on to the role of Design Manager! He’ll be collaborating with Jeff, leveraging Jeff's 40+ years of knowledge as we continue to improve our chemical pump ranges—boosting performance, reducing energy consumption, all while maintaining the same trusted reliability. We're also committed to transforming our operations into a lean, net-zero organization. So, after an inspiring period of travel, Emily Gillard is back! I’m delighted to say that Emily has returned home as Operations Manager with an even greater focus on elevating our customer service and leading our push toward net-zero operations. 🌱 It’s really exciting to be building this fantastic team at Crest; a team that drives innovation, embraces sustainability, and delivers exceptional service.

Unfortunately, errors can occur in a process that cause a pump to run dry. For a mechanically sealed pump this can cause an almost immediate failure to the seal. Some mag drive pumps are now available with special material bearings to prevent the onset of damage from running dry, But Crest Assoma mag drive pumps go another step further with the patented circulation for additional cooling. Under normal operating conditions, the pumped liquid acts as lubrication between the rotating and stationary parts, and the heat generated by the rotational action is gently taken away by the circulating liquid. But when a pump is starved of liquid, these moving parts generate heat from friction and as the heat builds up, damage will occur. However, with the Crest Assoma range, a patented auxiliary circulation channel runs between the bearing and the magnet capsule. The pressure difference has a convection effect for cooling both the interior and exterior of the bearing thereby preventing the high temperature build up caused from dry running. Crucially, whilst the design allows for increased cooling, there is no reduction in pump efficiency. We must point out that there are many ways to run a pump dry, and this design feature is in no way a failsafe method (you should question any pump manufacturer that does make this claim). It depends upon how (e.g. completely closed inlet valve, air lock, foot valve failure, etc) and for how long the pump is run dry, as to how long the Crest Assoma mag drive range will run without damage being caused. *This run dry design only applies to carbon/ceramic internal parts and not SSiC.

Congratulations to Jack for being our Q3 Crest shout out winner! Our shout out awards are nominated by the team throughout the Quarter for standing out & going above and beyond at work. And a well done to Jeff, Harvey, Alice, Dan & Liz for also being nominated.

Case Study ⭐ The Debem Aisiboxer 01 being used for a food company who specialise in frozen products, they are using the Aisiboxer 01 to transfer tomato sauce from a steel container to the loading hopper, ensuring a continuous and uniform flow while always maintaining the necessary efficiency and reliability.

Just one of the reasons why the ASSOMA INC. AVF-C won the British Pump Manufacturers Assoc. (BPMA) Product of the Year earlier this year... The ideal pump for applications where energy efficiency and reliability is critical.

Case Study! ✨ A customer of ours reduced pump operation costs by 32% annually and improved it ecological impact by switching to the Crest PP range of mechanically sealed pumps. They are a global leader in pharmaceutical production and biological treatment and research. Upon building a new facility that would need to be used for drug/chemical researching they were looking for a pump to transfer chemicals from safe area tanks to the laboratory workstation. We supplied a PP32 which is built to ATEX Zone 2 certification in thermoplastic polypropylene, as well as it being ISO9001 & ISO14001. In comparison to our nearest competitor pump type, our customer was able to save 32% annually on operating costs, as well as improve their ecological profile, all due to the energy efficiency nature of the Crest Pumps range. Industry – Chemical Application – 32% Caustic / Sodium Hypochlorite with solids Capacity – 20m3/hr Discharge head – 16 metres Viscosity – 1cP Model Supplies – PP32 Material – Polypropylene Specialty – Had to be energy efficient to meet corporate policy. 

ECC Vs EOV Greater performance, less power & same trusted reliability The EOV range of mechanically sealed thermoplastic pumps gives you up to 15% increase in performance whilst consuming up to 20% less power compared to the previous industry trusted ECC range. Designed using the latest CAD/CAM & simulation software and then proven by extensive testing, the volute casing incorporates the optimum shape and cutwater clearances whilst the impeller has the optimum combination of number, depth, and shape of vane for maximum efficiency. All components are machined from solid for added strength and consistency. The semi-open impeller design allows for some passage of solids, whilst the improved hydraulic design ensures excellent performance in low NPSH applications as well as minimal mechanical vibrations to ensure a longer life.
