When your chemical processes require outstanding chemical resistance and thermal stability!
Does your production require the pump to be hermetically sealed, diffusion-resistant, acid-proof, capable of pumping solids, have a vacuum-proof PFA lining, be designed for medium temperatures of up to 200 °C and be corrosion-resistant? Then we have the right pump for your challenge!
In a chemical production facility for chemical products in Switzerland, 99% nitric acid has to be pumped. The pump lining must therefore be absolutely permeation-resistant in contact with the medium! PFA is known to be extremely resistant to a wide range of chemical substances, including aggressive acids, bases and solvents.
The magnetically coupled chemical process pumps with PFA lining (MKPL) and also those made of virginal PTFE (MSKP) have been performing carefree operating hours unnoticed in the background for years.
„Install and forget! No company can afford expensive production downtimes or accidents when handling this extremely dangerous medium!“
In practice, another major advantage is the compact design with low space requirements in the monoblock version. This makes the pump easily accessible for maintenance work, which saves several hours of maintenance costs.
The fast and short-term availability of spare parts speaks for the worldwide widespread and proven use of PFA-lined MKPL and MSKP pumps made of PTFE solid plastic.
Overall, a PFA lined pump offers a reliable solution for demanding applications in the chemical industry where high chemical resistance, temperature resistance and reliability are required.
PFA is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for contact with food. This makes a PFA lined pump suitable for applications in the food and pharmaceutical industries where strict hygiene and safety standards must be met.
