Why India: deep pump-and-valve clusters (notably Coimbatore and Rajkot) with export momentum and standards literacy. Coimbatore accounts for ~40% of India’s pump-set production (≈600 manufacturers) and Rajkot hosts ~1,000 pump units—giving buyers capacity, competition, and cost leverage.
Market proof: India exported US$1.32 bn of pumps (HS 8413) and US$2.11 bn of valves (HS 8481) in 2023; the USA is the top destination for both categories.
What we source & build
- Centrifugal & positive-displacement pumps: end-suction, multistage, process/refinery, vertical in-line, rotary gear/screw, reciprocating. Dimensional families to ISO 2858; Class-II requirements to ISO 5199; refinery service to API 610.
- Valves & flow components: gate/globe/check/ball/butterfly; pressure-reducing/safety/NRVs; strainers, manifolds, spools. Testing to API 598 / ISO 5208; refinery/pipeline builds to API 600 / API 6D.
- Industrial hoses & assemblies:
The standards buyers expect (we build and test to these)
Pumps
- ISO 2858 (end-suction dimensions), ISO 5199 (Class-II spec), API 610 (refinery). Performance curves verified on test beds (H-Q-η), NPSH-r, and vibration per project spec.
Valves
- API 598 / ISO 5208 pressure & seat tests; API 600 (steel gate) and API 6D (pipeline ball/gate/plug/check) when specified. Flange & rating integration per client’s P/T class.
Hoses
- ISO 18752 hydraulic (constant-pressure classes), ISO 10380 corrugated metal, IS 444 / IS 3549 rubber water/suction-discharge. Traceable crimp data & burst tests included
Quality & validation you can show your QA team
- Pumps: certified test curves (H-Q-η), hydrostatic tests, bearing temperature & vibration logs; metallurgy docs (MTCs/EN 10204 3.1) for wetted parts; NDE (UT/RT/DP/MP) on castings and critical welds.
- Valves: shell & seat tests to API 598 / ISO 5208 with leakage class specified; torque/actuation sheets; PMI for bodies/trim; coating data where painted.
- Hoses: pressure/burst and impulse (hydraulic) per ISO 18752; corrugation bend/flex & leak per ISO 10380; proof pressure and adhesion tests for IS 444/IS 3549 builds.
How IndiaUnbox de-risks your buy
- Spec → cost-down: duty point confirmation, material swaps (CF8M vs WCB+coating), seal/elastomer compatibility matrix, duplexing where warranted; VA/VE on actuator sizing and hose classes.
- Right factories, right clusters: shortlists across Coimbatore (pumps), Rajkot/Gujarat (valves & castings) with melt/HPDC/CNC/NDE maps and previous export lanes to US/EU/MENA.
- Samples → FAT: pump performance tests with witnessed curves; valve hydro & seat tests to API 598/ISO 5208; hose burst/impulse certificates attached to each batch.
- Compliance pack (per lot): CoCs to ISO/API/IS, material 3.1 certs, NDE reports, painting/galv data, GADs and IOMs, spares kits, and packing photos.
- Logistics & preservation: VCI wraps/desiccants, end caps, palletization; long-haul corrosion strategy; ISPM-15 when wood used.
Example scope (ready to quote)
- Pumps: ISO 2858 end-suction 32–200 frames; multistage boiler feed; API 610 OH/BB/VS types; rotary PD (gear/screw).
- Valves: API 600 gate; API 6D trunnion ball; high-performance butterfly; globe/check; PRVs/NRVs; strainers and spools with ISO 5208 test packs.
- Hoses: ISO 18752 hydraulic assemblies with fittings; ISO 10380 corrugated SS hose; IS 444/IS 3549 water & suction-discharge hose lines.
