antique mud pump manufacturer

In 1848 Seabury S. Gould purchased an interests in Downs, Mynderse & Co. and the firm became Downs & Co. Wooden pumps were produced in an old cotton factory building. In 1869, the name of the company was changed from Downs & Company to Goulds Manufacturing Company.

Seabury S. Gould, a man of unusual vision, was the founder of Goulds Manufacturing Company. He keenly watched as the first pump casting emerged from its mold of sand. An iron pump, he believed, would overcome all the disadvantages of a wooden pump. It would be strong and efficient and provide fresh flowing water for the pioneers. He ran the company until after the Civil War.

One of the frequent calls we hear from customers is that they either have an older diaphragm pump make or need replacement diaphragms for their newer diaphragm pump. Some genuine replacement parts are easier to find than others. The good news is that replacement diaphragms and other parts for almost any kind of diaphragm pump are available for pumps dating back as far as the 1940’s.

The general procedure for measuring your current diaphragm and getting your pump back to operating condition is easier than you think. There are three general steps to follow to getting the pump parts you need.

Viton, Santoprene and Neoprene are generally the different varieties of diaphragm materials available. For general wastewater pumping, Santoprene and Neoprene have proven to be effective. For corrosive and abrasive fluids your pump parts repair person may suggest a different material like Viton. You should talk to a pump expert before making this decision however.

Your diaphragm pump parts provider can get information to you with greater speed if you have all of this information ready when you order.
