Advantages

Nova Rotors pumps offer superior efficiency, low pulsation, and gentle handling of sensitive fluids, making them the optimal choice for industries such as oil & gas, food processing, and mining. Oil & gas applications often involve handling fluids with high particle content, such as sand, limestone, and other abrasive solids. Nova Rotors progressive cavity pumps are designed to handle these challenging materials without compromising performance or durability, ensuring reliable operation even in the most demanding pumping scenarios.

Low Maintenance and Troubleshooting
With a simple construction and easy access for maintenance, Nova Rotors pumps minimize downtime and maintenance costs. The modular design allows for quick and easy access to critical components for servicing and repair. High-quality materials and precision engineering ensure a long lifespan, reducing downtime and maintenance costs for our clients.

API 676 Compliance
API 676 covers a wide range of rotary positive displacement pumps, including progressive cavity pumps used in various industries, from oil & gas to chemical processing and beyond. While setting comprehensive guidelines, API 676 allows some flexibility in design to meet specific customer needs and operational conditions.

As an internationally recognized standard, API 676 is widely adopted worldwide, promoting quality, safety, and interoperability in rotary positive displacement pump systems. Nova Rotors progressive cavity pumps are designed to fully comply with API 676, ensuring the highest levels of safety, performance, and reliability in demanding applications.

Capable of handling a wide range of fluids, including high-viscosity, abrasive, and solid-laden materials, Nova Rotors PCP pumps are the ideal choice for the most challenging oil & gas applications. Our pumps effortlessly adapt to variable process conditions, maximizing productivity and minimizing the need for expensive auxiliary equipment. The low-shear design ensures that delicate fluids are transferred without degradation or separation. Nova Rotors pumps also guarantee high separator efficiency, causing almost no damage to oil droplets and eliminating the risk of creating difficult-to-separate emulsions.

No additional auxiliary devices are required, as our pumps are fully self-priming. The NPSH requirement of our pumps is very low, which is beneficial when considering tank emptying applications such as closed drain drums, KO (knock-out) vent drums, or any application involving liquids with high vapor pressure.

Our field-proven technology effectively handles a wide range of hydrocarbons. Nova Rotors pumps provide a constant, smooth, and non-pulsating flow. The volume remains virtually unchanged despite viscosity variations, ensuring accurate flow readings downstream and eliminating the need for expensive pulsation dampeners required with alternative pumps.
