The Flux Barrel Pump Kit for acids and alkalis comes as a ready-to-use acid pump kit, complete with a pump, motor, hose and quick action tap. Designed for pumping light liquids up to 600 cP from small containers, drums and IBCs, this Flux drum pump is typically used for transferring light fluids such as boric acid, hydrochloric acid, hydrofluoric acid (diluted), phosphoric acid, and liquid fertilizers.

The Flux Barrel Pump Kit for acids and alkalis is supplied in polypropylene as standard and has a steel cord inner tube to provide stability and extend the service life of the mechanical seal when pumping high-temperature fluids. This Flux pump kit is available in two versions: with a mechanical seal and a model without a seal.

The chemical drum pump version that comes with a mechanical seal can be easily disassembled for cleaning and maintenance due to its simple two-piece construction. In addition, the mechanical seal protects the pump's inner tube against the pumped fluid, preventing cross-contamination. This makes this Flux drum pump version more suitable for handling abrasive, crystallizing or high-temperature liquids. On the other hand, the absence of a mechanical seal in the sealess electric barrel pump model makes it a preferable solution for transferring solvents and other fluids that would otherwise cause wear and leaking of the seal. This means that the sealless chemical drum pump model is typically used for free-flowing, non-abrasive liquids that do not bond or crystallize.

FAQs

Put most simply, a barrel pump, is a pump connected to an immersion tube that sits within the drum with its motor located outside of the container. The pump draws up the fluid through its immersion tube and is then dispensed via a hose or pipe that is connected to its outlet.
