 Core Technologies/Innovations
In 1899, four years before the incorporation of The Blackmer Pump Company,
Robert Blackmer invented a rotary vane pump. Their unique ability to self-adjust
helped these pumps maintain optimal flow rates, something the popular gear
pumps of the time could not do. And thus, the spirit and tradition of Blackmer
innovation was born.

For more than a century, Blackmer has been at the forefront of flow-technology “We’re doing twice as much
problem-solving with such innovations as its patented cavitation/noise work in volume, but our
suppression system. By leveraging its design, engineering and applications electric rate has stayed the
