| Question | Answer |
| What does PMPS specialise in? | PMPS specialises in packaged metering and pumping solutions for industrial and process applications. This includes metering pumps, dosing systems, skid-mounted pumping packages, and related instrumentation designed for accuracy, reliability, and long-term performance. |
| What industries does PMPS serve? | PMPS solutions are used across multiple industries, including:
Each solution is selected or engineered to suit the operating conditions and compliance requirements of the specific industry. |
| What is a packaged metering or pumping solution? | A packaged metering or pumping solution is a pre-engineered system that combines pumps, pipework, valves, instrumentation, and control components into a single, ready-to-install unit. These systems are designed to simplify installation, improve reliability, and ensure consistent performance in process environments. |
| Does PMPS supply standard products or custom-built systems? | PMPS supplies both standard pumping and metering equipment as well as custom-configured systems. Where applications require specific flow rates, pressures, chemicals, or space constraints, systems can be designed and assembled to meet those exact requirements. |
| What types of pumps does PMPS supply? | PMPS supplies a range of industrial pumps, including:
Pump selection is based on application requirements such as flow accuracy, pressure, chemical compatibility, and operating conditions. |
| Can PMPS assist with selecting the correct pump or system? | Yes. PMPS provides technical guidance and application support to help clients select the most suitable pump or system. This includes evaluating fluid properties, dosing requirements, pressure conditions, and integration with existing plant systems. |
| Are PMPS systems suitable for chemical dosing applications? | Yes. PMPS solutions are commonly used for chemical dosing and metering, where accuracy, repeatability, and safety are critical. Systems can be configured for corrosive, hazardous, or sensitive chemicals depending on the application. |
| Does PMPS provide skid-mounted systems? | Yes. PMPS offers skid-mounted pumping and metering systems, which are fully assembled and tested before delivery. These systems reduce installation time, improve quality control, and allow for easier on-site integration. |
| Can PMPS solutions integrate with existing plant control systems? | PMPS systems can be configured to integrate with existing control and automation systems, including flow monitoring, level control, and external signals where required. Integration requirements are assessed during the design or selection phase. |
| Does PMPS provide installation or commissioning support? | PMPS provides support and guidance for installation and commissioning to ensure systems are set up correctly and operate as intended. The level of support depends on the scope and complexity of the system supplied. |
| Do PMPS products come with a warranty? | Yes. PMPS products are supplied with a standard manufacturer warranty, typically covering manufacturing defects. Warranty terms may vary depending on the product and application. |
| Can PMPS assist with maintenance or ongoing support? | PMPS supports clients with technical assistance, maintenance advice, and replacement components to help maximise equipment lifespan and system reliability. |
| How do I request a quote from PMPS? | You can request a quote by contacting PMPS directly via the website contact form, email, or telephone. Providing details such as application type, required flow rate, pressure, and fluid characteristics will help ensure an accurate proposal. |
| What information is required to size a metering or dosing pump? | To size a pump correctly, PMPS typically requires:
This information allows the correct equipment to be specified for reliable operation. |
| Where is PMPS based, and what regions do you serve? | PMPS is based in South Africa and supplies solutions locally as well as to clients across sub-Saharan Africa, depending on project requirements. |
