High-Quality Customisation Capabilities

Kelair is committed to offering its full support to customers from the initial project conception and consultation stage through to manufacture, testing, installation and ongoing routine maintenance and servicing performed by a highly skilled team of service technicians.

With dedicated workshops in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Mackay, Perth and Launceston, all offering a range of manufacturing, fabricating, machining and engineering services, Kelair has the facilities to custom-build to any requirement, for any industry.

Utilising the latest in design software and over four decades of experience in the pump industry, Kelair’s team of accomplished engineers has the expertise to design, manufacture, install and commission any project. “We build pumping solutions and customise to what the customer requires,” they said.

With extensive customisation capabilities and on-site facilities, Kelair have provided custom-builds and tailored solutions for many customers across every application and industry:

• Kelair specialises in providing pumps and pump packages for the mining industry and industry in general and sometimes selecting the best package means making hard choices between multiple solutions. The team at Kelair provided several solutions to this consulting engineering company for a local gold mine.
• When it comes to irrigation, Kelair can customise a solution tailored to any requirement, as was the case for a recent request made by a local council in Mackay.
• For Building and Fire applications, Kelair provides fully compliant diesel and electric fire hydrant pump sets, such as the one provided to a North Sydney office block.
• For water/wastewater applications, Kelair offers the Blivet - an all-encompassing wastewater treatment plant that comes ready-to-go and can be quickly and easily installed, just like the one Kelair installed at this central Queensland mine.

State-of-the-art Test Facility

Equipped with a specialised state-of-the-art test facility with the latest technology, Kelair can provide faster and more accurate results to recognised standards.

The test rig boasts a 185kW inverter allowing for testing of varying speeds as well as flow and pressure capabilities of 400 L/s and 2000 kPa respectively. It is also compliant with Australian Standards AS/ISO 9906:2018/ and acts as an invaluable diagnostic tool for pump servicing.

Kelair Regional Manager for NSW, Anthony Sidawi, said, “We test most of the pumps before they leave our facility. As a minimum, we hydrostatically test a pump, but we can also performance test the pump and generate a pump curve for the client."

Comprehensive In-House and On-Site Services

Situated across multiple states with round-the-clock workshops and mobile service vehicles, the Kelair Pumps servicing team has near unlimited capabilities, able to repair all makes and models of pumps, control circuits and accessories both on-the-road and in-house.

Kelair’s in-house facilities for equipment and pump repairs are capable of equipment and system upgrades up to current codes and standards.

“We don’t limit ourselves to only doing pump repairs. We repair valves, gearboxes and electric motors. We look after anything to do with pumps, pump systems or ancillaries.”
