Hayward Tyler Services cut plant operating costs

Hayward Tyler Services (HTS), part of the Hayward Tyler Group, have successfully completed a contract to overhaul three Hayward Tyler Wet Wound Boiler Circulation Pumps (BCP’s) for N.V. Elektriciteits-Produktiemaatschappij Zuid (EPZ) at their solid fuel fired power plant in The Netherlands. The contract required the overhaul to be completed on a turnkey basis in just 5 weeks.

The BCP’s were originally supplied in 1984 and have offered virtually 100% availability in over 20 years of operation. This high availability has been achieved due to a proactive preventive maintenance approach by the customer and Hayward Tyler service team.

The project involved the removal, overhaul and re-installation of three BCP’s (Model 2 x 10 x 14 x 17, 280kW, 660V, 218 Bar) in joint collaboration with EPZ’s on site maintenance team.

Not only was the project delivered ahead of schedule and under a very tight turn-around time of 5 weeks, but HTS also increased the meantime between maintenance to 4 years, therefore reducing the overall operating costs of the plant.

The project was completed under strict nuclear operating conditions, which brought with it an intense level of administration and quality requirements, familiar territory for the HTS team.

Hayward Tyler Services provide a variety of outage, repair, overhaul and test services for pumps, compressors, power turbines, gearboxes, motors and other high-speed rotating equipment from a wide variety of manufacturers and industries.

Fluid Handling shines in golden year

Hayward Tyler Fluid Handling (“HTFH”), a division of the Hayward Tyler Group, has continued to exhibit strong growth as it celebrates 50 years in business. Driven by a number of new ‘green’ energy projects the company has either won or shipped the following contracts this year:

High-Temperature/High-Pressure Canned Motor Pumps for a Dutch waste to heat power plant which generates sustainable energy from waste material. The plant originally purchased pumps from HTFH back in 2005 and these pumps, along with the new ones, are used in the power plant’s reheater systems, between the first and second stage turbines, in order to reheat the steam and improve overall plant efficiency.

High-Temperature/High-Pressure Canned Motor Pumps, for demineralised feed water duties for a new Solar Energy Power Plant in Italy. The experimental new technology uses high temperature concentrating systems or “thermodynamic systems” to concentrate solar radiation by means of large mirrors. The heat is used to raise the temperature of an auxiliary molten salt fluid, which is then used to produce steam that is subsequently fed into a traditional thermal cycle. This plant is the first application worldwide of the integration of a gas-fired combined cycle power plant and a thermodynamic solar energy system.

Remote maintenance pumps for a major nuclear waste management site in the UK. The first of these replacement units has already been shipped.

Paul Noble, Managing Director, Fluid Handling stated “Despite difficult economic conditions this year we have exceeded our targets and achieved 100% on time delivery. Further we are excited to be involved in new ‘green’ energy projects and to be able to manufacture products that help to ensure a healthier environment.”

HTFH is located in East Kilbride, Scotland, and supplies specialist agitators and canned motor pumps for industries such as chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, food & dairy, beverage & breweries and both the conventional & nuclear power industry.

25th August 2009
Hayward Tyler Fluid Handling, a division of the Hayward Tyler Group, is celebrating 50 years of business in August this year. This is an important milestone for the company who today specialise in the design and manufacture of canned motor pumps.

Since its establishment in 1959 in East Kilbride, Scotland, by Jock Craig, who set up the business to manufacture ceramic lined pumps, the company has grown steadily, supplying specialist agitators and canned motor pumps for industries such as chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, food & dairy and beverage & breweries. Most recently the company has been focusing on its range of canned motor pumps for the nuclear industry winning some highly prestigious contracts.

The success of the business can be attributed to a number of factors in addition to their niche-engineered products. These include the manufacturing plant capabilities, quality and environmental management systems and certification. Primarily however the success of the business is down to its people, its greatest asset. A combination of long servers and fresh faces, including new craft apprentices, give a combined service of over 250 years. To complement the team further investment has recently been made in machine tools, expansion of the offices and improved IT systems.

Paul Noble, Managing Director of Fluid Handling stated “Our golden jubilee is not just a celebration of the past but more importantly of the future. We have a fantastic heritage and this, along with our ability to design and build mission critical long life equipment, places us in a strong position to continue as a specialised engineering business for the next 50 years.”

Hayward Tyler to Pump Power to India

Hayward Tyler wins Multi-million pound contract with BHEL

Hayward Tyler Ltd, a leading manufacturer of pumps and motors for the power and oil and gas industries has won a multi-million pound contract from Bharat Heavy Electricals Ltd (BHEL) India, the largest engineering and manufacturing enterprise in India in the energy-related/infrastructure sector, for the supply of 12 off 380kW Glandless Boiler Water Circulation Pumps (BCWP). The pumps, scheduled for delivery in 2010, will operate within the high pressure part of the boiler system (2 BCP's on continuous duty, I on standby) with a boiler and turbine combination producing 500MW electrical output.

6 BCP's will be installed at a power station in the District of Koderma, which was mostly created in 1994 and also known as the mica capital of India. Another 6 BCP's will be installed at a power station in Durgapur, created in the 1950's and located in the district of Burdwan, in the state West Bengal, India, 168 km to the north of Calcutta, with a population of about 250,000.

Hayward Tyler first developed the Glandless (Sealless) pump motor in the early 1940's, and although there have been many refinements and design improvements since then, HT remain the leading supplier and the world's only specialist manufacturer of this type of equipment. The pumps are specifically designed to pump high pressure and high temperature water or other fluids (Density) and are renowned for their reliability, running in some cases continuously, for several decades.

Vic Erdilek, Hayward Tyler Power Market Development Manager says “this contract award represents a great team achievement, giving Hayward Tyler an opportunity to strengthen its presence in the Indian market. A key selection factor by BHEL was the high energy efficiency levels achieved by our Glandless Motor Pumps when benchmarked against our competitors”.
