Barrels and containers emptied of liquids quickly
Compact but powerful pumps are designed for a wide range of applications in quickly drawing off, transferring and emptying liquids from barrels and containers.
The diaphragms have a vulcanised support plate and, due to their short stroke, deliver high service life.
High uptime is also assured by the pumps' high reliability, due to the minimal number of components parts, fast stripdown, and easy access to the air valve unit, which is outside the pump housing.
Maintenance can be carried out in-line, without removing the pump from the work area.
RFML pumps have very high chemical resistance.
In addition, because they are machined from solid materials, they are of extremely robust construction and are suitable for continuous applications involving high temperatures and pressure rates.
They handle liquids spanning the viscosity range from water to pastes, and including neutral or aggressive, shear-sensitive, thixotropic, abrasive and corrosive liquids, and also sludge and gas-liquid mixtures.
Maximum capacities range up to five cubic metres/hour at up to eight bar.
