Last week, Pump Engineering (PEI) shipped its 4000th unit! The order was received in March from PEI’s Korea representative, Young Kim. The unit was a HALO-300 which was manufactured for Woongjin Chemical, an RO membrane manufacturer in South Korea. The company has been using another PEI Turbo for SWRO testing equipment since 2007. That Turbo reduced the project’s energy cost by 40%, resulting in this second order.
When Kim was asked how he felt about placing the order for the 4000th unit, he joked, “I must have won the lottery.”
Ken Guess, PEI Production Manager, recognized the significance of this order when he realized he has overseen the production of 3200 units during his tenure at PEI. “I was amazed by how much we’ve done in what seems like such a short time.”
Robert Oklejas, PEI President and Chairman of the Board, stated, “PEI is very proud and pleased to have delivered 4000 pumps and Turbos to the RO industry over the last 20 years. This number is a testament to the efficiency, simplicity, and reliability of our products, which keep us at the forefront of the RO industry.”
