Product Description
A chemical process pump is a type of pump designed to handle aggressive and corrosive fluids that are commonly found in chemical processing applications. These pumps are typically made of materials that are resistant to corrosion, such as high-grade stainless steel, titanium, or plastic materials.
Chemical process pumps are used to transfer a variety of fluids, including acids, alkalis, solvents, and other chemicals, from one location to another within a chemical plant or refinery. They may also be used to circulate fluids through a process system or to provide pressure for chemical reactions.
There are several types of chemical process pumps available, including centrifugal pumps, positive displacement pumps, and air-operated double diaphragm pumps. The choice of pump type depends on the specific requirements of the application, such as flow rate, pressure, viscosity, and temperature.
Chemical process pumps play a critical role in the safe and efficient operation of chemical processing plants. Proper maintenance and selection of the right pump for the application are essential to ensure optimal performance and prevent costly downtime and safety hazards.
Chemical Process Pump Features:
- Anti corrosive
- Leak and scratch proof
- Produces low noise and vibration
- Safe and reliable
