Northeast Controls — Your Experts in Fluid Dynamics Solutions
For more than eight decades, Northeast Controls has delivered high-performance jet pumps, eductors, and engineered fluid-movement solutions to industry worldwide. Founded in 1937, our reputation has been built on one principle: understanding how fluids behave — and designing equipment that harnesses that behavior with maximum efficiency, reliability, and simplicity.
We are not a catalog reseller. We are fluid-dynamics specialists.
Every eductor we supply is selected, sized, and applied using proven engineering methods based on motive pressure, suction conditions, discharge backpressure, NPSH, and process fluid properties — ensuring predictable performance in real-world operating conditions.
Why Eductors?
Eductors — also known as jet pumps — are among the most reliable and versatile fluid-handling devices available. By converting motive fluid energy into a high-velocity jet, they entrain and move a second fluid or gas without a single moving part.
This fundamental design delivers powerful advantages:
Extreme reliability
No shafts, seals, bearings, or impellers — eliminating mechanical failure modes.
Minimal maintenance
No lubrication, alignment, or rotating wear components means drastically lower lifetime operating costs.
Simple installation
No foundations, motors, or couplings. Just motive supply and piping connections.
Exceptional versatility
Self-priming and capable of handling liquids, vapors, gases, slurries, and even entrained solids — even in hazardous or corrosive environments.
Our Core Jet Pump & Eductor Capabilities
We supply and engineer eductors for virtually every industrial fluid-movement challenge.
Liquid Pumping
Eductors provide dependable pumping for:
- Condensate recovery
- Sumps and pits
- Wells and tanks
- Circulation loops
- Transfer of corrosive, abrasive, or hot liquids
They are especially valuable where conventional pumps fail due to priming issues, solids, vapor lock, or reliability problems.
Gas & Vapor Handling
Using liquid, steam, or compressed air as motive, our jet pumps are used to:
- Evacuate tanks and vessels
- Purge piping and chambers
- Remove vapors
- Prime liquid systems
- Create controlled vacuum
Unlike mechanical vacuum pumps, jet pumps tolerate condensables, corrosives, and particulate-laden gases with no loss of reliability.
Steam Jet Heating & Circulation
Steam jet heaters and liquid eductors provide:
- In-line water heating
- Tank heating
- Pasteurization and sterilization
- Cleaning-solution circulation
These systems deliver fast heat transfer, uniform temperature, and zero moving parts, making them ideal for process and sanitation duties.
Mixing, Blending & Solids Handling
Jet pumps and tank eductors can:
- Blend chemicals into liquid streams
- Mix granular solids into liquids
- Circulate tank contents
- Move powders and granules using air or steam
This allows simultaneous pumping and mixing, eliminating separate agitators or mechanical mixers.
Tank Mixing & Heating Eductors
Our tank eductors deliver superior circulation compared to traditional mixers by using fluid energy instead of rotating blades.
They provide:
- Full-tank mixing with no dead zones
- Uniform temperature distribution
- No mechanical seals or motors inside the tank
Available in:
- Polypropylene & PVDF for corrosive services
- 316 stainless steel for industrial use
- Sanitary designs for food, pharma, and biotech
They are ideal for chemical tanks, cleaning baths, plating lines, and process vessels.
Materials, Sizes & Rapid Availability
We maintain a deep inventory of eductors in:
- Carbon steel
- Bronze
- 316 stainless steel
With specialty alloys such as Hastelloy® and Alloy 20 available for demanding chemical service.
Standard sizes from ½″ through 3″ are stocked for same-day shipment, allowing us to respond quickly to both emergency replacements and new installations.
Engineering-Driven Selection
Every system is selected using proven sizing methods that account for:
- Motive pressure and flow
- Suction lift and NPSH
- Discharge backpressure
- Fluid density, temperature, and vapor pressure
This ensures that what we ship actually performs in your plant — not just on paper.
Let’s Solve Your Fluid-Handling Problem
If you need to move, mix, heat, evacuate, or transfer liquids or gases — especially in harsh, corrosive, or difficult conditions — Northeast Controls delivers solutions that work where mechanical equipment struggles.
Our team is ready to help you engineer the right eductor system to improve reliability, reduce maintenance, and increase profitability.
