Case Study 04
SOLVED: DMAC (dimethyl acetamide) solvent recovery
Issues to solve
Need to increase resistance to sludge.
Switching outsourced maintenance to in-house maintenance.
BEFORE:
Sanwa Pump used
Canned motor pumps used.
Sludge causes troubles such as cracking of carbon bearings.
AFTER:
Sanwa Pump used
Sanwa MP model adopted
Stable operations without causing problems with bearings achieved.
Easy and thus in-house maintenance works achieved.

Owing to durability of rear casing, the slurry resistance is high.
The wide gap between the rotor and the can causes the slurry resistance.
Compared to the canned pump, the thicker can makes safer at high temperatures and pressure.
Maintenance frequency is quite low.
Maintenance works do not require skilled work, so it can be done in-house.
The durability and wearability of SiC bearings are excellent, and monitoring is not required.
