Unpacking valves and pumps is a messy and unpleasant task.

Removing worn, dried out, carbonised and rock hard packing is time consuming, particularly where the removal of injected sealing compounds is concerned.

Then there is the danger of scratches, nicks and gouges causing damage to the valve stem or stuffing box. The whole labour intensive process increases pressure on engineers striving to reduce downtime and costs.

The Geegraf extractor is the solution you've been waiting for. The system uses micro bursts of a focused water jet at very high pressure to remove valve stem packing, pump packing and flange gasketing materials of all kinds. It is especially suited to use where asbestos is known to be present as the hydration eliminates hazardous dust particles.

The equipment is designed for totally safe use by a single operator and is so portable and effective that the unpacking of 30 valves in a day is not uncommon. The savings in downtime and labour costs can be significant. There is also peace of mind in knowing that the process is entirely non destructive to valve and pump components, leaving them in the optimum condition for resealing.
