Obsolete Vacuum Pump Refurbishment

 

PSI brings obsolete vacuum pumps back to like-new condition and saves customer $370k

Challenge: A major prime contractor wanted to extend the life of five obsolete vacuum pumps, which had been in operation for over 30 years, but needed major reconditioning to run for the next 30 years.

 

Solution: PSI disassembled the pumps and did a thorough inspection on each unit. As expected, there was significant wear and tear in each unit. As a result, PSI did a complete remanufacture on each pump. In some instances, PSI was able to clean and reuse original components, customize solutions for units that were missing components, as well as replace obsolete components with newer, more efficient parts, which improved upon the original design. In the end, PSI brought all five pumps back to like-new condition, at a total cost below $130,000.

 

Result: The cost to retrofit these obsolete pumps would have cost in excess of $500k, so PSI saved the customer a minimum of $370,000 by remanufacturing them.
