Commitment to Quality & Success

Fluid Equipment Development Company (FEDCO) 

was founded in 1997 to develop new fluid machinery 

to reduce the cost of reverse osmosis desalination. 

The results included patented concepts, highly in-

tegrated design, superior production software, and 

sophisticated manufacturing processes. Our efforts 

culminated in multiple lines of energy recovery tur-

bines and pumps uniquely suited for seawater and 

brackish RO desalination.

  

We are the developers of the HP-HEMI™ ERD and 

control system for mega-scale SWRO systems, as 

well as the world’s first low-cost integrated pump-ERD 

for brackish water RO. Additionally, our Monroe facility 

operates the largest pump and ERD test system dedi

-

cated to SWRO systems in the world.

 

Our teams of talented and energetic engineers, 

manufacturing specialists and systems experts have 

created a fully integrated enterprise with one aim – to 

provide our customers with customized fluid machines 

with exceptional efficiency  and low capital cost cou

-

pled with customer service that exceeds their expec-

tations. The results include new designs, technology, 

manufacturing processes, and standards. Our pumps 

and ERDs use bearings that are lubricated by feed or 

brine to eliminate the numerous maintenance and lo

-

gistics issues associated with oil or grease lubricated 

bearing systems. We offer three materials of construc

-

tion: Duplex SS, Super Duplex SS and 316 SS. 

We design fluid machines to take full advantage of the 

technical characteristics of the membrane process. 

FEDCO pumps only cover flows and pressures found 

in BWRO and seawater SWRO applications. They are 

designed for clean fluids and are optimized for typical 

suction pressures in RO systems. Our ERDs include 

variable area nozzles that meet typical brine pressure 

variations. Our products eliminate external tubing car

-

rying high pressure feed or brine that can fail creating 

hazards to personnel and equipment. Our units are 

designed for operation and maintenance by unskilled 

personnel in the harshest of desert or marine environ-

ments.

With the longest warranty and the highest efficiencies, 

our product lines are unmatched in quality and per-

formance by any manufacturer in the RO equipment 

market. FEDCO is a widely recognized supplier with 

thousands of units installed around the world.
