At National Flow Systems, we specialise in high-quality support and maintenance for industrial pumping systems across Australia, including for critical sectors like mining.

We recently took on the challenge of restoring a Caprari pump recovered from a mine site in New South Wales. After years of operation in the tough and abrasive conditions typical of mining environments, the pump was showing significant wear and had lost much of its original efficiency. However, with our expertise in pump servicing and repairs, we’ve brought this hardworking pump back to life, making it look and function as if it were brand new.

The full service included a comprehensive overhaul of all critical components. We began with a detailed inspection to assess the condition of the pump and identify areas of wear and damage. Key elements like the impellers, bearings, and seals were meticulously examined, cleaned, and repaired. Worn seals were replaced to restore leak-proof performance, and the impellers were rebalanced to ensure smooth, efficient operation. Bearings, a vital part of the pump’s performance, were replaced with high-quality components to eliminate vibration and improve durability. The casing and other external components were thoroughly cleaned and refinished to withstand the harsh conditions of its working environment.

Our team also tested the pump rigorously after reassembly to verify its flow rates and pressure capabilities. This process ensured that the Caprari pump was restored not just cosmetically but also operationally, ready to meet the demanding requirements of the mine site once more. Now fully refurbished, the pump is back to performing like new, delivering reliable and efficient service in challenging conditions.

At NFS, we’re proud to help businesses across Australia maximise the lifespan of their essential equipment, offering expert repair and servicing solutions that deliver real value. This Caprari pump is now ready to face the rigours of mining operations once again, proving that with the right care, even the hardest-working pumps can be restored to their prime.
