About Flow Optimizers

Flow Optimizers, LLC, a Minority and Woman Owned Business (MWBE), was formed in March 2017 as a Hydraulics Engineering Design company with the vision to solve pump inlet flow problems through innovative design solutions, advanced manufacturing techniques, and lower cost manufacturing.

Our goal; to bring standard inlet flow conditioning solutions to market. However, we are often challenged with uniquely difficult inlet conditions and we rely on several hydraulic model testing laboratories to help modify our standard designs to achieve the goals of the particular client’s needs.

Our scope of services include Engineering, Design  and Fabrication for the following products:

  • Flow Optimizer Baskets
    Flow conditioning, vortex suppression baskets that mounts on the suction of vertical turbine pumps.
  • Flow Optimizer Vaned Spool
    Flow conditioning spool assemblies that mount on the suction of a double suction split case pump.
  • Flow Optimizer Floor Cone
    Flow conditioning floor mounted inlet suction cones for lift station pumps.
  • Flow Optimizer Vaned Tee
    Flow conditioning inserts that are conveniently flange mounted onto pipes, elbows, and Tee’s.
  • Flow Optimizer Vaned Cross
    Flow Conditioning Grids are used when upstream piping is less than ideal, and not per Hydraulic Institute guidelines.
  • Flow Optimizer Bellmouth
    Flow Conditioning Bells mounts onto the suction of a submersible pump.
  • Flow Optimizer Handhole Clean-out
    Custom made pipe spool with a handhole clean-out to allow you to lock-out/tag-out the pump, easily open the clamp, remove our contoured plug giving access to the suction of the clogged pump.
  • Flow Optimizer Handhole Clean-out w/Plug and Vanes
    Custom made pipe spool with a handhole clean-out to allow you to lock-out/tag-out the pump, easily open the clamp, our contoured plug gives access to the suction of the clogged pump and helps to minimize disturbances as flow passes clean-out port.
  • Flow Optimizer Vaned Reducing Elbow
    Reducing Elbows with a 2 diameter reduction have been proven to be the most effective way to condition the flow prior to the pumps suction.
