Water and Waste Water industry
Mechanical seals for water applications
Water is the most precious resource on our planet. The processes that keep it flowing – or controlled – ensure supply and demand. From wastewater treatment to water purification and extraction, all water applications need the right sealing technology to keep operations running reliably.
For decades, Roplan has met the challenges of the water and wastewater sector by designing custom mechanical seals. Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) trust our expertise to maintain the availability of rotary equipment. No matter the water type, our mechanical seals withstand every media – and every application.
Keep wastewater out of harm’s way
At wastewater plants, heavily contaminated water, containing greases, oils, abrasive solids and chemicals, tests the limit of your rotary equipment. As wastewater is treated, clog-forming fibers and solids accumulate from sludge, posing downtime at every stage of purification.
Roplan’s mechanical seals help your equipment perform reliably even with high viscosity, abrasive and corrosive fluids. With a seal design built to last, your equipment will reduce contamination and conserve water to meet environmental standards. Our mechanical seals are engineered for you – guaranteeing better mean time between repair (MTBR) and lower costs.
Preventing floods with reliable mechanical seals
Climate change is happening, and water control and drainage systems are in more demand than ever. From flushing out surface water for construction to pumping out heavy rainfall in stormwater pump stations. Extreme weather conditions put entire communities and infrastructure at risk, so pump failure is not an option.
Our engineers work with you to design custom mechanical seals built for your storm or surface water pumps. High performance is essential in our seal design, so we’ll never compromise efficiency. Our robust mechanical seals will support your rotating equipment when managing large volumes of water in high-pressure emergencies.
Achieving sustainable water usage in irrigation
In areas with scarce resources, irrigation systems ensure water is responsibly secured and distributed for essential upkeep. Our mechanical seals help irrigation pumps optimize water resources, all while growing life-sustaining crops and pastures or revegetating barren lands.
We’re on our own sustainability mission, so we’re passionate about supporting OEMs in achieving theirs. Over the decades, our mechanical seals have kept surface and underground pumps running efficiently so precious water resources keep flowing.
