stainless
steel pump to produce a 7000 psi
hydrostatic tester.”

7,000 psi Hydrotester
Model: Aussie Raptor 17th October 2008
Australian Pump Industries, Australia’s
major manufacturer of hydrotest equipment
have launched a 7,000 p.s.i. diesel
driven hydrotest pump kit. Called
the Aussie Raptor HTP, the machine
achieves flows of up to 13 litres per
minute.
The heart of the system is a big Udor
7,000 p.s.i. Penta style pump. The
quintuplex design utilises a machined
stainless steel head with big oil filled
crank case for cool running. The pump,
designed to run at 1450 r.p.m. represents
a major breakthrough in high
pressure pump technology, offering the
ability to test pipelines, compressors and pumps in the oil and gas industry
at pressures of up to 7,300 p.s.i.
The machine is powered by a Hatz air cooled industrial diesel engine and
comes mounted in a heavy duty galvanised steel frame on 4 big pneumatic
tyred steel wheels for ease of manoeuvrability on site.
Like all Aussie HTP hydrostatic test equipment, the new Raptor comes with
fully adjustable pressure unloader to enable the operator to set the pressure
required. The double gauge system enables the operator to lock off the test
lines and monitor both pump and line pressures at the same time.
Designed originally for Middle East customers, the Raptor HTP is now being
used in Australia, and is expected to be a big success both here and in export
markets.
