CENTEX FEATURES

Centex-designed flywheels are the simplest and most effective solution to counter the effects of water hammer. This is achieved by allowing the pump to gradually coast down thus minimizing large transient pressure surges.

The flywheel provides a secondary benefit of gentle starts and stops drastically improving the life of the rotating assembly and auxiliary equipment.

Centex Fluid Products offers a variety of Pontoon barges, engineered to meet ever changing conditions and mining charter requirements. During the design phase, careful attention is paid to the functionality and purpose of the pontoon while adhering to safety standards. On request, marine prognoses reports are issued by an independent marine architect. Access walk-way modules can be added to provide maintenance personal with safe unrestricted access.

Multiple pump pontoon / barges can be engineered so that they can be pushed in-situ utilizing bulldozers or other earth moving equipment.

Our skids are designed to meet the most stringent engineering specifications to ensure that they withstand the most adverse site conditions. Finite Element Analysis ensures that the equipment offered is best suited for every application. Centex engineered skids are offered as either permanently installed bases, or as portable drag skids while integrating lifting bail and forklift pockets for maneuverability.

They are offered in electric motor, diesel engine, or hydraulic driven configurations. Other Centex engineered solutions are often integrated onto our skids such as flywheels, grinders, fire suppression systems and check valves.

We manufacture portable sound attenuated self-priming pumps units from 2-1/2” to 24”, trailer or skid mounted. Enclosed sound attenuated units are specifically designed for uses in residential areas and “quiet zones”. They meet or exceed all industry standards for sound level db(A).

At Centex we offer a variety of trailer packages catering for various market segments. Our experienced Engineers are adept at producing roadworthy or site trailers in either open air packages, weather enclosures, or fully sound attenuated options.

We offer both braked and unbraked trailers in either single, double, or triple axle configurations to meet international standards. Fuel tanks can be integrated into the trailer substructure.

Centex has assisted municipalities and emergency response agencies from around the world to develop custom vehicle-mounted pump units for flood control use in disaster areas. Our engineers have equipped all-terrain vehicles, trailers, and trucks with pump units of up to 13,000 GPM, turning them into stand-alone mobile pump stations with proven reliability.
