Pumps for the chemical industry
Physical requirements such as suction and pressure heads, viscosities and temperatures often lead to very critical applications, not to mention explosion protection. We have a very wide range of solutions to offer for these tasks. In addition, the physical requirements, including suction and pressure heads, viscosities and temperatures, often call for extremely demanding application scenarios, not to mention explosion protection regulations. We have an extensive range of solutions to successfully meet these challenges.
Air-operated diaphragm pumps
In many scenarios, air-operated diaphragm pumps prove to be an extremely effective solution. Thanks to their hermetically sealed design, they meet the requirements of TA Luft and offer high reliability. These pumps are easy to regulate via the compressed air supply, self-priming and dry-running safe, which underlines their versatility. In addition, they can easily operate against closed gate valves and are also suitable for precise metering applications.
In the field of chemical pumps, particularly high demands are placed on chemical resistance. Here we can offer a wide range of chemical pumps made of different materials such as PE and PTFE, also in ATEX versions.
Electrical diaphragm pumps
Electric diaphragm pumps prove to be an extremely useful option, especially in situations where compressed air is not available or the existing air network is overloaded. These pumps combine the positive characteristics of air-operated diaphragm pumps with an electric drive, which makes their application versatile and efficient. They ensure reliable fluid delivery, but should take into account that they cannot work against closed gate valves.
In addition, electric diaphragm pumps are characterised by their ease of use and ability to pump a wide range of fluids. This makes them a suitable choice for various industrial applications where reliable fluid delivery is required.
Centrifugal pumps
Centrifugal pumps play a crucial role in the chemical industry, as they are essential for the safe and efficient transfer of a wide range of chemicals and liquids. These pumps are specifically designed to handle aggressive and corrosive media, ensuring reliable performance in demanding environments. They offer precise control over flow rate and pressure, which is essential in chemical processes.
In addition, many centrifugal pumps are available in ATEX versions to meet explosion protection requirements. In the chemical industry, they are therefore indispensable components for a safe and efficient production process.
Peristaltic pumps
Peristaltic pumps are particularly in demand in the chemical industry due to their impressive suction capacity. They offer the possibility of precise dosing and are therefore also used for dosing tasks. However, extreme caution is required when using peristaltic pumps, as the material compatibility of the hoses plays a decisive role.
Choosing the right hoses and considering chemical resistance are crucial to ensure that the pumps operate smoothly and efficiently. Therefore, careful selection of hose materials is of great importance to avoid undesirable reactions with the pumped chemicals and to ensure reliable performance.
Drum pumps
It is often necessary to introduce chemicals from small containers or drums into an industrial process. In this context, we offer a wide range of drum pumps that have the required chemical resistance. These pumps enable efficient and safe handling of chemicals by reliably transferring them from the containers and feeding them into the production process.
When selecting the appropriate drum pump, careful testing of chemical compatibility is crucial to ensure smooth operations and maximum safety.
