LIQUID PUMPS & APPLICATIONS
Liquid Pumps
• Haskel pneumatic pumps stall when they
reach a pre- determined pressure and
maintain that pressure for the duration
of operation without consuming power,
unlike electric motor pumps that dump
fluid across a relief valve, wasting energy
and creating heat. Because of this safe
air operation, no heat, flame, or spark risk
arises.
• Haskel pneumatic pumps have a smaller
footprint, weigh less, and are easier to
maintain than typical electrically driven
pumps.
Hydraulic Pressure Testing
Haskel pumps ensure the integrity of large
valves and wellheads over the lifetime of a well.
Hydraulic power units and other purpose-built
systems reliably test valves, components, pipe,
downhole tools, and oilfield pressure vessels to
stringent specifications, ensuring safe operation.
Applications include proof, leak, burst, pulse,
fatigue and calibration testing in a wide range of
