Frequently Asked Questions :

What is the maximum operating temperature and head? The pumps are rated for fluids up to 60 °C and a maximum hydraulic head of 70 m. Capacities are available up to 300 m³/h. Please confirm your exact flow and head requirements when ordering so we can recommend the correct model.

Which chemicals and process media are these pumps suitable for? These pumps are designed for corrosive chemical handling. Typical applications include HCl loading and unloading, dilute sulfuric acid transfer, scrubbing, effluent treatment, descaling, and ejector systems. Wetted parts are available in Polypropylene (PP) or UHMW-PE, with shaft sleeves in High-Alumina Ceramic, Hastelloy, Titanium, or Silicon Carbide to suit media chemistry and abrasion.

Can these pumps handle solids or abrasive slurries? These pumps are primarily optimized for corrosive fluids rather than heavy slurries. They can handle light solids or mild abrasive conditions when fitted with abrasion-resistant shaft sleeves such as silicon carbide or high-alumina ceramic. Heavy or high-concentration slurries may require a dedicated slurry pump.

What sealing options are available and how do I choose? Available sealing options include gland packing, single mechanical seal, and double mechanical seal.

  • Gland packing: Lower initial cost, suitable where some leakage is acceptable.

  • Single mechanical seal: Standard for most chemical services; lower leakage and better longevity.

  • Double mechanical seal: Recommended for critical, toxic, or environmentally sensitive applications.

How serviceable are these pumps and are spare parts available? The pumps are highly serviceable due to their horizontal back pull-out design, which allows removal of the rotating assembly without disturbing the piping. Injection-molded single-piece wetted components simplify maintenance and replacement. Common spare parts such as seals, sleeves, and impellers are readily available for off-the-shelf delivery.
