Issue

Pumps used by the military are refurbished after a period of service. The military require pumps to be operationally ready when pulled from stores.

Solution

Following their refurbishment they are preserved from corrosion using a mix of Mil Spec and commercial off-the shelf (COTS) materials.

In this case the pump has been protected aganist corrosion using the following components:

• vapor capsule inside the electrical control box
• plastabs inside junction boxes
• high performance desiccant inside the package to absorb water
• barrier film to Mil Spec on the outside

Benefits

• pump is preserved in the same state as it is after refurbishment
• operational ready
• no rework required
