-
Of all pump manufacturers, Kerr Pumps ranks at the top in lead time.
-
Over 98% of all parts are shipped the same day as they are ordered.
-
Overnight service is available on many pump models.
-
Overnight service is available on parts orders.
-
Our prices are among the most competitive in the industry.
-
Kerr low pressure Pumps will produce up to and over 3000psi for the same price or less than the competitions 800-1200psi pumps which allows for the same pump to be used in many different applications (standardization).
-
Experienced in manufacturing positive displacement plunger pumps. Kerr Pump Corporation has been manufacturing the Kerr line of pumps since 1946.
-
Many of the original pumps manufactured in the 40’s and 50’s are still in operation today.
-
Kerr Pumps can be ordered to meet API Specifications.
-
Castings and forgings used throughout Kerr Pumps are heat treated and stress relieved such as crankshafts, wrist pins, crossheads etc.
-
All Kerr power frames are built to withstand the rod load of the highest pressure fluid ends (i.e. you can convert a 1500psi pump into a 15000psi pump by only changing the fluid end or change a 1500psi pump into a 3000psi pump by changing the plunger size).
-
Longer pumping stroke, larger diameter plungers and lower RPM operation gives excellent performance with high viscosity fluids.
-
Unique design of power frame lubrication using splash and gravity feed methods under normal operation that will extend the life of the power frame components.
-
Patent Pending design of low RPM lubrication system available as an option. (Standard on Bentonite Pumps)
-
An optional forced feed lubrication of the packing will dramatically extend the life of the packing (as much as 400%).
-
Tapered valve seats with polyurethane insert designed for polymer injection to provide minimum degradation of polymer.
-
Kerr Pumps are more compact and more durable than competitive pumps.
-
Ease of maintaining valves was engineered into these pumps so that only one special tool is required, a valve puller.
-
Net Positive Suction Head Required (NPSHR) is one of the lowest in the industry.
-
Crankshaft will extend from either side of the power frame without any special modifications to accept a left or right hand drive.
-
Special designed crankshaft and bearing housing will allow you to direct drive the pumps with a hydraulic motor that mounts directly to the pump with no additional mounting hardware required.
-
All forged/cast steel pump models can be equipped with flanges upon request.
-
Custom skid design and fabrication is engineered at Kerr’s manufacturing facility available with drivers, belts, guards and motors.
-
Kerr has developed a longer lasting inserted valve that will allow you to replace the valve insert instead of replacing the entire valve which will reduces operating cost.
-
Kerr Pump Corporation does not charge extra (as many Pump companies do) to dress the pump to the customer specifications (i.e. ceramic plunger vs colmonoy, delrin disc type valves, vs abrasive resistant valves).
-
Kerr Pumps Hydrostatic Tests and Performance Tests Every Pump Prior to Shipment.
-
Longer mean time between overhauls than competitive pumps.
