Ceetak Engineering’s

capability within the pump

maintenance and sales market has

been strengthened by its ‘Total Pump

Management’ service

eetak Engineering has a support network that spans the UK,

servicing every aspect of a client’s pump requirements. The company can provide new pumps and spares, complete overhaul and repair, laser alignment and condition monitoring, site maintenance and shutdowns, single source supply, inventory rationalisation, turnkey projects, and fault diagnostics. Indeed, Ceetak has pioneered the concept of ‘Total Pump Management’, designed to meet the various demands of process industries such as the pharmaceutical, petrochemical, food and drink, utilities, and waste management sectors.

Formed in 1997, the business was born upon the premise of offering every pump related service within a competitive UK and European market. However, Ceetak is unique in that it strives to provide a pump support service operating on a non-stop, 24/7, 365-days a year principle. Equally, with five sites across the UK, at Grangemouth, Teesside, Warrington, Gloucester and headquarters in Bedford, the company has a fleet of fully equipped

service vehicles that can respond to a client’s needs quickly and efficiently. With this groundwork established, Ceetak has achieved year-on-year growth through working with blue chip companies in a number of industrial disciplines. The experience of the business can also be demonstrated by the extensive list of pump manufacturers that Ceetak has either worked with, or repaired products for, including: ABS Pumps Ltd, HMD, Lowara, Mono, Wilo Pumps, and Grundfos.

Ceetak’s independence within the niche market of pump management has allowed it to provide a widespanning and flexible range of services to its clients, as well as introduce unique working practices within industry. Several of the company’s major customers have commended Ceetak’s work on their projects: for instance, following an HTF pump swap-out project completed over a single weekend, a major pharmaceutical company praised Ceetak’s ability to organise all the required service providers alongside completing the actual task itself within the short, two-day time frame.

ent An equally significant, Middlesex-based chemical company thanked Ceetak’s employees for helping to

minimise downtime through assisting in the rapid repair of a BSP scrubber pump, and recommended the company for work on its other site. Finally, a foodstuffs company located in the South East was grateful for Ceetak’s quick response maintenance team, and the high levels of commitment and customer service they exuded. This quality service allowed the business to get its plant back to full capacity with a minimum of loss.

Ceetak’s Total Pump Management service encompasses a client’s every requirement in many areas. In regards to pumps themselves, Ceetak is competent in dealing with many different designs, particularly those associated with the Centrifugal range, like the glandless and overhung bearing designs. With over 60 years experience selecting and troubleshooting these models, the company is also competent in supplying equipment, spares and repairs of all positive displacement designs. Finally, in regards to vacuum pumps, Ceetak can offer overhaul, repair and testing services for all types of liquid ring and dry vacuum pumps.

Ceetak is also a fully competent provider of preventative maintenance, using Vibrotip technology to monitor the condition of machinery. Vibrotip measures five of the most vital indications of rotating equipment condition - vibration level, bearing condition, cavitation, rotation speed, and temperature - to ensure a machine is running safely and efficiently. Equally, the company can offer laser alignment services using Optalign equipment, as well as other types of extensive performance testing at a customer’s facilities.

Process efficiency is vital in any pump or rotating machine installation, and over recent years the general efficiency of rotating equipment has vastly improved. However, recognising that new parts may be needed, the ordering system that surrounds equipment, remains difficult to manage. To combat this, Ceetak has developed the SmartPart system, which utilises the internet to give clients total access to pump data, maintenance logs, and lists of parts. SmartPart covers an array of equipment, offering such services as failure mode analysis, a document database, performance history, and online ordering capabilities. The system makes the entire ordering process simple, quick, and efficient, and offers customers significant cost savings.

It is also important to highlight Ceetak’s range of service contracts and turnkey projects that it regularly undertakes. The company has many annual service contracts with clients located across the UK, with inspections made regularly to ensure process equipment runs smoothly. In regards to turnkey projects, Ceetak undertakes all mechanical, electrical, and civil contracts, supplying fully qualified contract engineers and extensive site support across a number of industrial sectors, such as the offshore, building service, pharmaceutical, food and drink, wastewater, and chemical markets.

The products and services offered by Ceetak will help many businesses deal with the challenge of making their processes more efficient. With the expertise Ceetak can offer to clients in a niche market area, the business is fully prepared to attain its aim of continuous growth over the coming years.
