The Flux F430 Series Electric Barrel Pump is designed for transferring light liquids including chemicals, acids and oil up to 1200 cP from small containers, drums and IBCs. This Flux drum pump leads in our product range due to its versatility and long life in heavy-duty applications. The F430 chemical barrel pump comes with a mechanical seal protecting the pump's inner tube against the pumped fluid, preventing cross-contamination. Therefore, as the Flux pump supplier, we recommend this chemical pump model over the Flux F424 seal-less model for transferring multiple different liquids and handling solids up to 2mm with less wear.
Suitable to handle abrasive, crystallizing or high-temperature liquids, this chemical transfer pump can be easily disassembled for cleaning and maintenance due to its simple two-piece construction. The F430 chemical barrel pump is available in different materials and immersion lengths, including stainless steel FDA-approved models suitable for alcohol transfer and ATEX, certified drum pump models.
The PP and PVDF versions of this electric drum pump for chemicals are the most robust versions of the F430 due to steel re-inforced over-moulded inner tubes. The steel cored inner tube of these Flux pump models provide stability and extend the service life of the mechanical seal when pumping high temperature fluids. Thanks to the 5 brass shaft support bearings, F430 Flux drum pumps has optimal driveshaft support and resistance to vibration.

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.
