Process Pumps  Manufacturers, Traders, Suppliers

Function:As Process pumps Pumps that transport metered quantities of liquids via a controller. They can be designed in any size. Micropumps pass on the smallest amounts of active substances. Huge apparatus for refineries or sewage treatment plants circulate the transported material in cubic metres. According to the functional principle, positive displacement pumps and flow pumps are subdivided. In positive displacement pumps, the medium is sucked in and prevented from flowing back by mechanical devices such as valves or flaps. These include piston pumps, diaphragm pumps, screw conveyors, pumping stations and peristaltic pumps. Flow pumps work exclusively through fluid mechanics. Check valves or valves are used here to prevent uncontrolled backflow at standstill.Properties:Process pumps must meet the highest requirements and continuous loads. This is achieved through constructional requirements and the use of suitable materials. To avoid cavitation, exact calculations of the geometry are necessary. The materials are subjected to rigorous load tests. Mechanical, chemical and biological parameters serve as test parameters. Manufacturers distinguish, for example, between pumps for aggressive or contaminated fluids, for foodstuffs or raw materials for medical applications. Germination and bacterial infestation is prevented by special coatings. Some devices must have cooling or heating. Contamination by foreign matter and abrasion can best be excluded with diaphragm pumps. Application areas:The described system technology is used for example in the chemical industry, pharmaceutical companies and the production of food. Single, two and multi-stage centrifugal and barrel pumps are used in refineries, power stations, petrochemical plants and in the oil and gas industry. The fertilizer industry, water management and environmental technology also require adapted transport aids. For dosing systems, the finest measuring devices are installed in the circuit. These include scales, mass flow meters, volume flow meters, gear meters and sensors for pH value, temperature and pressure. The tiniest quantities must be set absolutely precisely for medical requirements. For effective filling of consumer goods such as liquid soap, cleaning agents or beverages, the tolerances can be slightly broader. The manufacturers offer a wide range of different devices for every application. Many systems can be modified in terms of flow rate and size with optional accessories or in the design.
