Blackhawk Develops Advanced Electric Piston Pump to Ease Maintenance in Tough Applications

Blackhawk Technology Company, the industry’s leading manufacturer of severe-service piston pumps and supplies, has developed a technologically advanced design for its electric top-head-drive pumps to make servicing and repair easier in difficult locations.

"The Anchor Electric’s positive-displacement piston pumps put the electric motor and controls outside of the well, tank or sump, not down with the liquid being pumped," said Mark Bertane, Blackhawk president. "Inlet clogging is eliminated, and servicing is performed safely and easily above the wellhead. No pump pulling is required, and working parts are on the surface, making them easy to service."

The Anchor Electric Pump’s motor is specially designed for hazardous and potentially hazardous environments, explosionproof applications, harsh weather conditions and remote locations.

Anchor Electric pumps feature a powerful electric driver for deep and/or high pressure applications. And because these pumps can be installed at any angle from zero to 90 degrees, they are well suited for low-flow remediation, landfill leachate, gas-condensate recovery, and gas-well dewatering applications.

"As the professional’s choice in next-generation technology, Blackhawk continues to innovate to make pumping simpler and more productive for our customers," Bertane said.
