Pumping System Performance – Before vs. After in California Mining Operation

❌ Before: Operational Issues

  • Centrifugal Pump Failures caused frequent breakdowns due to slurry abrasion and seal degradation.
  • Inconsistent Flow Rates disrupted fluid transfer, slowing productivity and reducing throughput.
  • High Maintenance Costs from seal replacements, pump repairs, and emergency downtime.
  • No Remote Monitoring meant limited visibility and slower incident response.
  • Low Energy Efficiency added long-term operating costs and environmental strain.

✅ After: LibertyCES Implementation

  • Zero Seal Failures with Graco QUANTM i20 electric diaphragm pump eliminating mechanical seals.
  • Boosted Flow to 100 GPM for reliable, high-volume chemical transfer under slurry conditions.
  • Integrated PLC Control Panel enabled seamless SCADA communication and alerts.
  • Energy-Efficient Operation reduced electricity usage and pump wear.
  • Long-Term Uptime with lower maintenance, remote monitoring, and increased system longevity.
Graco QUANTM i20 Industrial Pump System California

LibertyCES upgraded this California mining facility with a Graco QUANTM i20 electric diaphragm pump to eliminate failures and boost uptime.

Mining Case Study – Eliminating Pump Failures with Electric Diaphragm Technology in California

LibertyCES specializes in industrial water treatment solutions in California for demanding industries like mining and chemical processing. Our team helps operators overcome system breakdowns, equipment wear, and efficiency challenges using next-gen fluid control technology.

In this project, we implemented a chemical transfer system featuring the Graco QUANTM i20 electric diaphragm pump with PLC automation—eliminating centrifugal pump failures, improving flow to 100 GPM, and minimizing downtime at a California mining facility.
