API 674 Reciprocating Pumps Manufacturer
Petropedam engineers and manufactures API 674 reciprocating pumps, high-pressure triplex plunger pumps and positive displacement pumps for oil & gas, petrochemical, refinery and drilling service — rated up to 800 bar.
What Are Reciprocating Pumps?
Reciprocating pumps are positive displacement pumps that use a piston, plunger, or diaphragm to move fluid through a cylindrical chamber. The reciprocating motion creates a vacuum on the suction stroke and displaces fluid under high pressure on the discharge stroke.
Unlike centrifugal pumps — which rely on velocity and are limited by system resistance — reciprocating pumps deliver a constant, pulsating flow regardless of discharge pressure. This makes them the preferred technology for high-pressure, low-flow services where accuracy, repeatability and reliability are critical.
Petropedam reciprocating pumps are engineered for viscous fluids, abrasive slurries, and shear-sensitive media, and are deployed across oil & gas, petrochemical, refining and drilling operations worldwide.
How to Select a Reciprocating Pump
Six engineering parameters determine the correct API 674 pump model for your process. Our engineering team supports selection from first datasheet to commissioning.
Flow Rate & Pressure
Define required m³/h and discharge pressure (bar). Reciprocating pumps are typically chosen for pressures above 100 bar and low-to-medium flows.
Fluid Properties
Viscosity, density, temperature, solids content, corrosivity and lubricity drive plunger vs. piston vs. diaphragm selection and materials.
Drive Type
Electric motor, diesel engine or steam-driven — selected based on available utilities, hazardous area classification and location.
Configuration
Simplex, duplex, triplex or quintuplex. Triplex is the industry standard for smooth flow, low pulsation and high availability.
Materials of Construction
Carbon steel, alloy steel, duplex stainless, or exotic alloys. Full material traceability and NACE compliance available on request.
Standards & Documentation
API 674 design, ISO 9001 manufacturing, hydrostatic and performance testing with full test reports and certificates.

Understanding API 674 Compliance
API 674 is the international standard published by the American Petroleum Institute covering reciprocating positive displacement pumps for the petroleum, petrochemical and natural gas industries.
The standard defines rigorous requirements across design, materials, fabrication, inspection, testing and documentation — ensuring each pump delivers safe, reliable, maintainable performance in demanding operating environments.
Every Petropedam reciprocating pump is engineered and manufactured in compliance with API 674, supported by full material traceability, hydrostatic testing and certified documentation packages suitable for EPC and end-user QA review.
Key Compliance Areas
- Materials — certified and fully traceable
- Hydrostatic testing — full pressure certification
- Performance testing — flow, pressure, efficiency
- Quality control — in-process and final inspection
- Documentation — test reports and material certificates
- NDT — MPI, dye penetrant and ultrasonic testing
