Vintage season is fast approaching, and here at Global Pumps we want to help you be prepared as possible. We understand the importance of delicate handling and gentle transfer required during vintage. We offer an extensive range of high-quality food grade pumps perfect for wineries, boutique winemakers, distilleries, and breweries.

Self-priming pumps are a specific type of liquid pump. They are designed for fluid movement and transfer which results in increased efficiencies in many pumping applications.

To maintain optimal pump performance for longer, it is important to service your pump regularly, and ensure it's accessible for regular servicing including: removing sections of pipe work, maintaining sufficient cooling around the pump and having the required space for lifting equipment.

Throughout mining operations, slurry pumps are critical in the effective transport of slurry across the plant. Their running costs are a significant component of the total lifecycle costs, estimated to be around 32%. Therefore, any failure to your slurry pump can bring your project to a grinding halt.

Pump curves fall into several categories and can represent different aspects of the pump’s performance. The most common types of pump curves include: pump family selection, the manufacturer’s published curve, certified pump curve and system curve.
