Grand Rapids, MI, USA – July 21, 2025 – Blackmer, a brand of PSG, a Dover company, and a global leader in rotating pumps and reciprocating compressor technologies, today announced the opening of its new Blackmer® Military West Coast Repair Center in San Diego, CA. This strategic expansion enhances the ability of Blackmer to deliver faster, more localized support to its valued military and marine customers operating on or near the Pacific coast.
With a longstanding legacy of supporting U.S. Navy ships and military installations since before World War II, Blackmer pumps and compressors have become synonymous with safety, reliability and operational excellence. The new San Diego facility joins the company’s well-established Military East Coast Repair Center in Virginia Beach, VA, to form a robust, bi-coastal repair network purpose-built to meet the urgent and specialized needs of the U.S. Military.
“Reliable performance is critical to national security and maritime operations,” said Sean Roberts, Blackmer Regional Sales & West Coast Repair Center Manager. “Our new San Diego location brings Blackmer-certified OEM repair capabilities and expert knowledge closer to where it’s needed most, reducing lead times and downtime for our customers.”
The Military West Coast Repair Center will offer:
- Certified OEM Rebuilds performed by Blackmer-trained personnel
- Stocked Inventory of high-demand components, including liners, rotors/shafts and Class A repair kits
- Operational Testing Capabilities to ensure mission-ready performance
- Local Fleet Training to empower military maintenance crews
- Four- to Six-Week Lead Time to support rapid deployment needs
“All Blackmer repair operations are conducted using factory-certified parts, a non-negotiable standard when safety and compliance are on the line,” added Roberts, who is also a U.S. Navy retired Chief Warrant Officer. “Both our East Coast and West Coast repair facilities are Department of Defense-approved and staffed by specialists who understand the unique environments and expectations of the U.S. Navy, Army, Air Force, Marine Corps and Coast Guard.”
Located at 2712 Transportation Ave., Suite H, the San Diego location is expected to significantly streamline maintenance logistics for Pacific-based fleets and installations, reducing shipping delays and improving pump readiness for mission-critical operations.
