Engineering Expertise & Experience
At L.W. Allen, we have the engineering expertise and experience to help you design almost any fluid handling system. Our Sales Engineers will help guide you through the complex relationship between system requirements and product capabilities. We have a Professional Civil Engineer on staff, licensed in the State of Wisconsin, with experience designing hydraulic systems of his own. Call on us anytime for help designing your system.
Pump Selection
We are well versed in the arts and the science of pump selection. Hydraulic design is a complex science, demanding a working knowledge of flow, pressure, temperature, viscosity, specific gravity, friction, and more. These elements then become part of the “art” of product selection, where we determine horsepower, speed, size, and configuration. Along the way, we also need to consider solids handling requirements, type of material pumped, abrasive and corrosive wear, materials of construction, and a lot more.
Lowest Cost of Ownership
When you work with L.W. Allen, we make it our job to help you find the right fit. We focus on the lowest cost of ownership, and that is not always the cheapest up-front cost. We want the end users to know that when they put our equipment into service, it will be the best combination of price, energy efficiency, and quality with the least amount of risk.
Heavy-Duty Pumps Plus Reliable Repairs
What are those risks? End users can’t afford premature failure,
excessive wear, downtime, plugging and clogging, leaking, or poor
service. We provide heavy-duty pumps, sized right and built to last.
Years from now, when a product does need service, these owners can count
on our local parts availability and local repair service. We keep all
of these elements in mind when we help with your system design.
