Six Impellers. Thousands Saved. Weeks of Downtime Avoided.
When a wastewater treatment plant in southern Florida was faced with repairing multiple damaged impellers, replacement wasn’t the best option. Each new impeller would cost more than $6,000 and come with a 22-week lead time.
Instead, the county maintenance team chose to restore them in-house with ENECON.
The damaged impeller was abrasive blasted and rebuilt using METALCLAD DurAlloy to restore the deteriorated vane edges back to the manufacturer’s dimensions. The repair was then completed with two coats of CeramAlloy CL+AC to provide long-term protection against erosion and corrosion.
With hands-on training and the right materials, the county mechanics completed the restoration themselves — eliminating the need to send the equipment out to a pump shop.
The result?
• Critical components restored
• Significant cost savings
• Reduced downtime
• Improved pumping efficiency
Another example of how ENECON helps facilities Repair. Don’t Replace.
