(30) "In Good Contact with the Liquids" The liquids to be pumped are abrasive, but they do not leave any deposits. Dry running of the pump must not cause any problems. You are looking for a general purpose pump without a mechanical seal in the liquid section. The O-ring material FKM is not resistant to the liquids to be pumped.
The inner tube supports the pump shaft, which is lubricated by the liquid. The level of the liquid in the inner tube always corresponds to that in the drum or container.
(51) "A Shaft in a Shell" The pump must be used with many varying liquids, consequently the smallest residual left within the pump is unacceptable. You want to pump adhesive substances like paints, or liquids which tend to crystallize or harden.
The inner tube houses the shaft. It is sealed at the bottom by mechanical seal through which the shaft passes. Consequently the shaft does not come into contact with the liquid except for the small section between the impeller and seal.
(6) "Perfection in Drum Emptying" You are not prepared to accept any residual liquid in the drum in order to avoid problems and costs of disposal or to avoid losing high value liquids.
Before the motor is switched off, the flowback stop valve at the pump inlet must be closed by operating the lever. This prevents the liquid flowing back into the empty drum.
(4) "An Excellent Mixture" You want to mix and pump liquids within a closed drum or an open container. By turning the adjusting lever, the pump can either mix or pump. Liquids can also be mixed even when being transferred to another container.
(3) "Pure Culture in Pumping" You want a safe pumping of food, cosmetic or pharmaceutical products. The operating conditions require an easy and quick cleaning or sterilization of the pump at regular intervals to avoid any contamination of the product, e.g. when pumping varying liquids or different colors as well as quick-drying or film forming liquids.
The efficient FLUX sanitary pump has been especially designed for aseptic applications.
