Chemical Process Pumps
Chemical process pumps are specialty pumps designed for transferring chemicals. These pumps are designed to be low maintenance and corrosion resistant. Chemical process pumps are used in various industrial applications, including Pulp & Paper, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, manufacturing and water treatment. They are designed to transfer liquids, chemicals, and other materials from one place to another. Chemical pumps are engineered to meet the specific demands of the chemical industry, where safety and accuracy are of utmost importance. Choosing the right chemical pump depends on several factors, such as the fluid being transferred, the flow rate required, the pressure needed and the application environment.
Choosing the Right Chemical Pump
Identify the fluid being transferred: Different fluids have different properties, such as viscosity, corrosiveness and temperature, which can affect the pump selection. Make sure to choose a pump that is compatible with the fluid being transferred.
Determine the flow rate required: The flow rate is the amount of fluid that needs to be transferred per unit of time. Make sure to choose a pump that can handle the required flow rate.
Determine the pressure needed: The pressure is the force required to move the fluid through the system. Make sure to choose a pump that can provide the required pressure.
Consider the application environment: The application environment, such as the temperature, humidity and presence of hazardous materials can affect the pump selection. Make sure to choose a pump that can operate safely in the application environment.
Consider the pump material: The pump material should be compatible with the fluid being transferred and the application environment. For example, if the fluid is corrosive, the pump material should be corrosion resistant.
