APS - Remote-Control Wireless Technology, and Dewatering and Recovery Systems

Allegheny Process Systems (APS) distributes remote-control wireless systems. Applications for our wireless solutions range from simple automated pump control to wireless tactical airfield lighting control to remote temperature monitoring. Anything that can be switched (i.e. on/off and forwards/backwards) or anything that can send and receive data can do so wirelessly.

Custom-designed wireless switches for pumps

APS provides custom-designed remote-control wireless switches for pumps including Denver, Thomas, Sala, Orion and Metso slurry pumps; 1hp-1,600hp submersible pumps, available in stainless steel; centrifugal pumps; horizontal centrifugal pumps; progressive cavity pumps, macerators and control systems; heavy-duty submersible pumps with agitators; and mine-duty submersible pumps with agitators.

Skid-mounted slurry pump / sump

When a sand operator needed to transport sand slurry to remote storage area, APS designed and built a slurry pump / sump on a skid to collect the sand slurry and pump it to its destination.

Sump / pump / cyclone system for solids removal

For a plastic recycle plant with dirty water discharge, APS designed a sump / pump / cyclone system to remove fine solids from the sewer.

Bases and guards for heavy-duty pumps

APS fabricated a base and guard for a direct-coupled heavy-duty pump to move the metal powder slurry from a powder plant's atomizer. 

Coalmine run-off recovery system

APS designed and fabricated a system to recover coalmine run-off before it entered a pond and product was lost, thus providing more sellable product and reducing pond maintenance costs.

Rafts for access to pond pumps

APS has designed and fabricated a man and tool raft for access to pond pumps.

Particle recovery, dewatering and storage system

APS has designed a recovery, de-watering and storage tube system to recover ultra-fine particles for a metal powder plant.

Pump wear-prevention washer

For underground mine water contaminated with fine particles that caused excessive pump wear, APS provides a mini-washer which recovers coal to products and protects pumps and equipment from wear.

Mine water/solids separation system

A customer was experiencing high rates of equipment replacement at their truck wash due to wear caused by solids in the recovered water. APS designed a separation system to provide the truck wash with clean water and send the waste to a settling pond.

Automated digger pump and raft for pond cleaning

For a sediment pond filled with coal fines that needed quick and continuous cleaning, APS designed and fabricated an automated digger pump and raft system.

Effluent-return sump and pump system

APS' effluent-return sump and pump system reduces magnetite loss in coal-preparation plants.

Custom-designed bucket elevator

Custom-designed bucket elevators prevent coarse coal spillage in underground coal mine by lifting coal straight to the product belt.

At APS, our first priority is customer satisfaction. Our mission is the use of highest-quality products and innovative engineering to provide cost-effective solutions to process problems for our mining and industrial customers.
