API 674 (Reciprocating Pumps for Petroleum, Petrochemical, and Natural Gas Industries) is the core reciprocating pump standard established by the American Petroleum Institute. As an authoritative specification for the design, manufacturing, and testing of critical equipment in oil & gas, and petrochemical sectors, it holds significant guiding importance. Elephant Machinery reciprocating pumps are designed in accordance with the third edition of API 674, capable of meeting flow and pressure requirements across diverse application fields.
Elephant Machinery reciprocating pumps are available in two product types: piston pumps and plunger pumps. Power configurations include hydraulic motors, electric motors, and diesel engines. Piston pumps primarily rely on the reciprocating motion of a piston within a cylinder, altering the pump chamber volume to achieve fluid intake and discharge. They are suitable for conveying high-viscosity media containing minor impurities. Plunger pumps operate through reciprocating plunger movement within a bore. Their exceptional sealing performance, achieved through high-precision plunger-bore fit, excels in high pressure, high efficiency applications, enabling precise delivery of clean or mildly corrosive liquids.
Reciprocating pumps comply with API 674 standards, featuring structural designs that meet stringent industrial requirements. They can be equipped with comprehensive monitoring and protection devices, such as pressure and temperature sensors along with overload protection systems. These enable real-time operational monitoring, automatic alarm activation and shutdown during anomalies, enhancing operational safety. For installation and maintenance, the modular design employs standardized core components, enabling easy disassembly and replacement. This reduces maintenance cycles and downtime, saving labor and material costs. Furthermore, customized solutions can be developed for specific industry requirements, such as adjusting pump chamber materials or optimizing pump assembly structures, to adapt to complex industrial scenarios. This provides stable and efficient liquid transfer power support across multiple sectors.
