How The Pump Works

Total Production Cost Comparison

10-in EDDY Pump Dredge 10-in Leading Centrifugal Pump Dredge
Initial Acquisition Cost $160,000.00 $125,000.00
Equipment 10-in EDDY Excavator Pump 10-in Centrifugal Pump Attachment
Production (cubic yards of material per hour) 300 cy/hr 150 cy/hr
Total Production over a year

Based on working 5 days a week and 10-hour shifts and 52 weeks per year

EDDY Pump has 80% uptime

(50 hours in a week) x (80% uptime) x (52 weeks per year) = (2080 hours per year) x (300 cy/hr)
624,000 cy per year
Centrifugal Pump Dredge has 60% uptime

(50 hours in a week) x (60% uptime) x (52 weeks per year) = (1560 hours per year) x (150 cy/hr)
234,000 cy per year
Total Cost of Replacement parts over a year
(mechanical seal, impeller, etc)
$2,500.00
(includes cutter teeth, and miscellaneous)
$30,000.00
(Mechanical Seal, Impeller, Cutterteeth)
Corrective Action Costs over a year
(downtime and labor costs for changing out failed parts, etc)
$5,000.00
(includes cutter teeth, and miscellaneous)
$45,000.00
(Mechanical Seal, Impeller, Cutterteeth)
Total Equipment Operation Cost per Cubic Yard
(minus operating costs such as diesel and operator’s labor)
Total Cost per year: $167,500.00

Total Cost per cubic yard: ($167,500.00) / (624,000 cubic yards per year) / = $0.27 per cubic yard
Total Cost per year: $200,000.00

Total Cost per cubic yard: ($200,000.00) / (234,000 cubic yards per year) = $0.85 per cubic yard

EDDY Pump’s Production Cost is 3x less than Competition.

The total cost is the sum of the equipment’s initial cost, operating cost, maintenance cost, and disposal cost.

The dredging capacity refers to the volume (in cubic yards) the dredging equipment can handle per unit of time.

Finally, the cost per cubic yard is calculated by dividing the total cost by the dredging capacity. This will provide the cost effectiveness of each piece of equipment.

Both of the Eddy Brine Pumps have been operating great. Wish I could say the same about the other pumps (Chestertons’s) – 5 of 6 failed on me during my last deployment.
