High Pressure Feed Pumps and Hydraulic Pressure Boosters for Seawater RO Desalination and Brine Energy Recovery


Fluid Equipment Development Company (FEDCO) was founded in 1997 to develop new fluid machinery to reduce the cost of reverse osmosis desalination. The results included patented concepts, highly integrated design and manufacturing software, and sophisticated manufacturing processes.

That effort culminated in several lines of energy recovery turbines and high pressure feed pumps uniquely suited for seawater RO desalination. Commercial sales began in 1999 with a limited product line, which has undergone periodic expansions and enhancements.

Now, FEDCO`s product lines are unmatched in quality and performance by any manufacturer in the seawater RO market. FEDCO is a widely recognized supplier with about one thousand units installed around the world.

We know RO. FEDCO equipment is designed and built to meet the specific challenges of seawater and brackish water RO applications.

We know the importance of reliability, the importance of low capital cost and the importance of easy operation. We know what it takes for OEMs and end users to make money.




FEDCO Equipment

High Quality Equipment

MSS Series HP Feed Pump offers the best value in high pressure feed pumps.

Features and Specifications:

  • 7 - 250 m3/hr capacity range in ten (10) models
  • Pressures to 83 bar
  • Optional HP inlet allows inlet pressures to 80 bar
  • Multistage, horizontal, barrel type
  • Flanged construction, one piece shaft for durability
  • WATER BEARING™ integral thrust bearing
  • Materials for SWRO service

The MSS series multi-stage centrifugal high pressure feed pumps have proved to be the most reliable high pressure feed pump available today, loaded with unique features such as the patented WATER BEARING™ thrust bearing, pumpage-lubricated bearings and overhaul-friendly design ensures years of trouble-free operation with the highest availability potential of any competing pump.

Covers a wide range of SWRO and high TDS brackish water applications and deliveries are 2-3 weeks, for smaller pumps and 5-6 weeks, for larger pumps.

Any RO system can suffer a disaster, a malfunctioning pretreatment system or improper operation can wreck critical components including the high pressure feed pump, when the worst occurs to the high pressure feed pump, damage that could take days to repair takes only hours with FEDCO equipment.




MSS Series HP Feed Pump

The Hydraulic Pressure Booster or HPB is a fully self-contained brine energy recovery device for seawater and brackish water systems. With over 400 units in field service, the HPB has earned a reputation for reliability, ease of operation and most importantly as the best value in energy recovery today.

The HPB generates a pressure boost in the feed stream ranging from 20 to 40% of the total membrane requirement. The unit is entirely energized by the brine stream. The brine and feed provide all lubrication and cooling. The HPB includes an integral valve for brine pressure regulation.

  • 10 - 500 m3/hr
  • Pressures to 83 bar
  • Constructed in Duplex SS 2205
  • No auxiliary equipment or instrumentation required
  • Most compact of all ERD`s

Benefits of the HPB:

  • Absolutely no limitations on the design or operation of the RO system
  • You design, build and operate the system the way you want
  • Use any chemicals, use any cleaning regime
  • Best investment of any energy recovery device commercially offered




Hydraulic Pressure Booster for Self Contained Brine Energy Recovery

FEDCO ``Exchanger`` Package

Exchange your old work exchanger or pressure exchanger units with FEDCO`s integrated feed pump-recover turbine. Exchange complexity for simplicity and restrictions for freedom of operation.

  • 10-250 m3/hr
  • Pressures to 83 bar
  • No auxiliary equipment or instrumentation required




Integrated Feed Pump-Recover Turbine

FEDCO`s LPB package brings affordable energy recovery to BWRO systems. With our exclusive integrated turbine/motor control scheme, you can obtain perfect control over the amount of interstage pressure boost and recover electrical energy when excess brine energy is available.

  • 30-250 m3/hr
  • Pressures to 30 bar
  • 316 SS construction
  • No auxiliary equipment or instrumentation required



FEDCO pumps, have a wide range of applications in various sectors such as:

Hotels/Resorts

  • FEDCO pumps run extremely quiet compared to reciprocating pumps
  • High employee turnover is not a problem for FEDCO equipment.
  • Pump and HPB bearings are water lubricated. No need to mess with greases or oils
  • Smallest footprint in the industry

Industrial Processing

  • Simplicity of operation is key to reliability
  • No extra instrumentation or vavling required unlike our competitor`s equipment
  • HPB units can be overhauled in as little as 15 minutes. No special tools required
  • Changes in system conditions, such as flows and pressures, are easily accommodated

Marine/Offshore

  • Extremely compact HPB + Pump package size
  • HPB adjusts to system conditions by itself. Just push the system start button and walk away
  • Low noise, vibration, and weights
  • Auxiliary valves, instruments, and pumps are not required with the HPB

Containerized/Portable

  • Ease of operation requires no specialized operator training
  • HPB and Pump package is so small, you barely know it`s there
  • Freedom to use any chemical in your system
  • Cleaning regimen is not dictated by the HPB unlike a pressure exchanger system.
