In nuclear plants, the equipment is subject to thermomechanical and chemical stress, but also to neutron irradiation. For the safety and reliability of the facilities, it is necessary to ensure that the materials used will withstand these solicitations. In order to meet the requirements of a nuclear environment, OPTIMEX has adapted the design of…
Optimex has been offering canned motor elbow pumps for several years now. These pumps are especially designed for pumping applications with high flow rates and low heads. Replacing the mechanical seal by canned motor technology provides a complete leakage free pump. This not only makes the system safe and reliable, but also reduces the amount…
Since 1998, OPTIMEX is specialized in designing and manufacturing industrial canned motor pumps. Its expertise in this field enables OPTIMEX to provide a qualitative and reactive after sales services to its customers. The company located in Fleurieux sur l’Arbresle near Lyon has expanded over the years to accommodate today a 2000m² workshop allowing us…
Experimental nuclear fusion reactor The ITER experimental nuclear fusion reactor is certainly the world’s most ambitious project in the energy field. This concept should make it possible to produce energy on a large scale without CO2 emissions or long-life and hight-level radioactive waste. Fusion is a reaction that powers stellar bodies such as the sun.…
In order to continue supplying value-added canned motor pumps, OPTIMEX proposes to « retrofit » existing pumps. A RETROFIT consists in reusing the hydraulic parts of an existing pump and adapting the canned motor pump technology by eliminating the dynamic sealing system. This technique becomes interesting when the costs of replacing the hydraulic parts and the costs…
To celebrate its 20 years, the whole OPTIMEX team welcomes you at our office and workshop! A visit of the company will be proposed as well as technical workshops about canned motor pumps.
From June 26th to 28th 2018 the 3rd edition of the World Nuclear Exhibition WNE will take place in Paris. As a canned motor pump manufacturer, OPTIMEX will exhibit its pumping solution for the nuclear field. The main asset of canned motor pumps is the security regarding the external leakage risks. OPTIMEX, strengthened by its experiences…
In order to provide solutions to the increasing concerns regarding energy conservation, OPTIMEX, always at the center of innovation, has decided to focus its research on energy-efficient machines.
Optimex ha desarrollado un nuevo diseño de bomba concebido principalmente para aplicaciones de altas temperaturas.
