Our Clyde Union site in Ontario is the first in Ontario to gain ASME accreditation for nuclear-grade pumps
06/04/25
Clyde Union Canada Ltd, based out of Burlington, Ontario, has become the first pumps manufacturer in the province to achieve ASME-N stamp accreditation along with CSA N285. It’s the third Celeros Flow Technology facility to be awarded an ASME-N stamp, alongside our Clyde Union Pumps site in the UK and our Copes Vulcan valves site in Houston, Texas.
Shakil Ahmed, Site Lead at Burlington, said: “We’re so proud of this achievement. The ASME-N stamp means that we can fully support the nuclear renaissance, taking place in Canada and across the globe, by manufacturing and maintaining the pump systems that are critical to the safe operation of nuclear power stations.”
The N-type Certificate of Authorization signifies that Clyde Union Canada Ltd has been through a rigorous survey to verify the adequacy and effective implementation of the ASME quality assurance program. Every aspect of the Burlington business — from hiring and training employees to engineering, design and manufacture — had to meet ASME’s rigorous quality standards.
Shakil added: “It took us more than two years of investment and hard work to prepare for the assessment, and we were able to achieve nuclear accreditation on our first attempt!”
As a result of this investment, the Burlington site now has a dedicated workspace for nuclear pump manufacture and a highly skilled engineering team. It offers a comprehensive Class 1, Class 2, and Class 3 product range and can provide a full conventional island product offering designed for the high reliability and availability requirements of any nuclear facility, including small modular reactors (SMRs) and microreactors. In addition to OEM equipment, the company offers nuclear customers full lifecycle support, which encompasses spare parts management and supply, field services, and off-site pump overhauls.
Through its pump and valve brands, Celeros Flow Technology has an engineering pedigree that reaches back to the first ever industrial scale nuclear power plant and continues with nuclear pump and valve installations in over 65% of operational nuclear power plants worldwide.
