Quick Turnaround for a Hot Oil Pump Replacement
In the fast-paced world of industrial engineering, timely solutions can make all the difference. A Lead Mechanical Engineer at a Chemical Manufacturer in Decatur, Alabama, approached our company with an urgent request from the plant: they needed a replacement pump for a Dean 2096RA hot oil pump. Understanding the critical nature of this requirement, we acted swiftly to provide an effective solution.
Our trusted partners, Rotech Pumps, came through impressively. Within the same day, we received a quotation for a direct drop-in replacement pump from Rotech.
