PRER and PRETR are reinforced OH2-type single-stage end suction process pumps, derivative from API610, using standard PRE hydraulics in a specially reinforced casing to suit high-pressure and high-temperature services such as boiler circulation.
High-pressure casing design with special reinforcement to suit challenging high-pressure services
Centerline mounted to allow thermal expansion
Closed impeller for clean fluids
Extra heavy-duty large diameter shaft for low shaft deflection
Taper roller bearing for very high suction pressures
Robust bearing housing with low-noise fan for high temperatures
Main applications
The PRER and PRETR are designed for high-pressure and high-temperature applications and are typically used in fossil fuel and renewable power plants. The design is ideal for:
Boiler circulation pump
Hot water circulation pump
All processes with high-pressure requirements
High-pressure slurry service in petrochemical industry (PRER-SF)
The complex processes performed on a typical FPSO rely on the performance of dozens of pumps handling a variety of liquids under widely varying process conditions.
Boiler feed pumps for biomass firing power plants applications are typically small/medium ring section type. Axially split multistage pumps are also available when required. The pump size and the design pressure will depend very much of type and the output of the power plant.
Feed water pumps (FWP) pump the feed water from the de-aerator through the HP heaters to the boiler. The major characteristic of FWP is their high differential head.
Condensate extraction pumps (CEP) extract the condensate water from the condenser and pump it through the condensate polishing system and the LP heaters to the de-aerator feed water tank. In medium to large size gas-fired combined-cycle power plants, the CEP are vertical canned type to ensure enough Net Positive Suction Head Available (NPSHA). In small power plants, the CEP could also be horizontal end-suction type.

Condensate extraction pumps (CEP) extract the condensate water from the condenser and pump it through the condensate polishing system and the LP heaters to the de-aerator feed water tank. In medium to large size coal- and oil-fired power plants, the CEP are vertical canned type to ensure enough Net Positive Suction Head Available (NPSHA). In small coal and oil captive Power Plants, the CEP could also be horizontal end-suction type.
Cooling water pumps for biomass firing applications are typically horizontal axially split or end suction type. Vertical turbine type pumps are also available when required.
Cooling water pumps (CWP) provide the fresh water to cool the exhaust steam in the condenser and pump it back to the wet cooling tower or the outlet of open cooling system. The major characteristic of the CWP is their high flow. In medium to large size gas-fired combined-cycle power plants, the CWP are vertical column type. In small power plants, the CWP could also be horizontal axially split type.
Sulzer offers a variety of cooling water pumps, all made to provide your processes with the optimum temperatures for your processes. Installed in a water cooled condenser, the pumps will be active for your specific process.

Feed water pumps (FWP) pump the feed water from the de-aerator through the HP heaters to the heat recovery steam generator. The major characteristic of the FWP is their high differential head. In all sizes of gas-fired combined-cycle power plants, the FWP are horizontal ring section type; occasionally, they could also be barrel or axially split type.
Feed water pumps (FWP) pump feed water from the de-aerator through the HP heaters to the solar steam generator. The major characteristic of FWP is their high differential head. The FWP are usually horizontal ring section type, but depending on customer requirements, they can also be barrel or axially split type.
Heat transfer fluid pump (HTF) pumps circulate thermal oil through the parabolic troughs to heat it up and pump it to the solar steam generator. The main characteristics of the HTF pumps are their high temperature and their double sealing system. Depending on the plant size, HTF pumps can be either double or end suction type.
Hydrocarbon feed pumps feed the heat exchanger where a working fluid of low temperature boiling point is flashed by the medium temperature hydrothermal resource. Then, it is expanded in a thermal turbine driving an electric generator.
The main characteristics of the molten salt pumps is the extremely high temperature of the liquid handled. They are vertical line shaft pump type. Sulzer provides vertical pumps as molten salt circulation pump for the following two applications: Molten Salt Circulation Pump for Heliostat Central Tower with Molten Salt and Heat Storage
Sulzer’s extensive product portfolio to maximize the performance and reliability of your solid organic fuel biomass power plant, solid industrial or municipal waste fuel biomass power plant, and liquid or gaseous organic fuel biomass power plant processes.
Geological characteristics ask for smart pumps that offer flexibility in the construction to suit their place of action. In shallow wells with less than -650m water level, the line shaft vertical pump configuration is preferably used. It's major advantages are the adaptability and simplified maintenance.
The steam generator Circulation Pumps (CP) circulate feed water from the hot water drum back to the solar steam generator to attemperate the steam temperature. The main characteristic of the CP is the high suction pressure. CP are high pressure end suction type.
