The Flux JUNIORFLUX F310 Barrel Pump is a cost-effective pumping solution designed for transferring smaller quantities of low viscosity fluids from a drum or IBC tank, such as acids, chemicals and light oils up to 250 CP. The JUNIORFLUX chemical drum pump has a smaller tube diameter enabling it to access narrow-necked drums, meaning it is a perfect pumping solution for barrels and IBCs with narrow openings. This electric barrel pump can be easily operated with one hand and requires minimal force to change between drums due to its compact and lightweight design.

The F310 Flux chemical transfer pump comes complete with a mechanical seal protecting the pump's inner tube against the pumped media. Therefore, as a Flux pump supplier, we recommend selecting this barrel pump model over the Flux F314 seal-less model for transferring several different liquids as the sealed inner tube prevents the risk of cross-contamination.

This Flux drum pump is supplied with the FEM 3070 motor as standard, which has an IP24 protection class, 2 step speed adjustment, 55m cable with a 2-pole connector. Available in both 110v and 230v 50/60Hz for long operation hours, the F310 electric drum pump for chemicals has a high operational safety due to the overload cut-out switch.

Features of the Juniorflux F310 Flux Chemical Drum Pump:

  • Cost effective and lightweight chemical pump
  • Suitable for transferring smaller quantities from barrels and IBCs
  • Can pump out of narrow-necked containers
  • Minimal force required to change drums
  • Mains connection enables very long operating times
  • High operational safety due to overload cut-out switch
  • Easy single-hand operation
  • Hand nozzle always quickly at hand due to holding hook
  • Low storage space required
  • Popular as a cost effective chemical transfer pump
  • 230v version tested to German VDE and GS
  • Chemical resistant ETFE impellers
  • Long-life PTFE bearings
  • Also available as a Flux drum pump kit

This Flux pump is a perfect cost-effective chemical transfer pump solution for transferring multiple low viscosity fluids without the risk of cross-contamination.

  • High quality barrel pump – Flux pumps are well known German made barrel pumps that have been in the market for over 70 years.
  • Powerful commuter motors – The F310 electric barrel pump with the main connection is the perfect pumping solution for a long operating process.
  • Small outer diameter –This feature allows the JUNIORFLUX to be used for narrow-necked drums and IBCs.
  • Ergonomic design – This flux drum pump can be easily used with one hand and move between drums or IBCs due to the light weighted and space-saving design.

Due to the long – life PTFE bearings and the chemical resistant impellers, this chemical drum pump is suitable for various industrial applications. The Flux F310 drum pump is a versatile solution as it is available in different materials compatible with various fluids, making it a popular chemical pump:

  • Acids and alkalis
  • Liquid fertilizers
  • Cleaning solutions
  • Water
  • Concentrated nitric acid
  • Sulphuric acid
  • Acetic acid

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.

If you have a 1000 litre IBC you will require a 1200mm tube, a 205 litre drum requires a 1000mm and if you have a smaller container 700mm and shorter tubes are available. For larger containers we can offer longer tube sets on specification

If your fluid is prone to crystallisation, then you can use the F310 or F430 models as the pump bearings are protected from wear.

The F425 model is capable of emptying 99.98% of a container's contents. This drum pump is generally selected when the liquid is particularly valuable to minimise waste.

The F426 model is capable of both mixing and pumping the liquid within the container, which is a lower cost solution when compared to a separate mixer and pump.

For liquids with a flashpoint below 50°C, we offer our Stainless Steel F400 models and Viscopower series with ATEX approved motors or Viscoflux Lite EX.

Our range includes both FDA and 3A approved hygienic models. When the viscosity is >1200cP we offer the sanitary Viscopower F570 and F580 models and the Viscoflux Mobile. If <1200cP we typically select the F427, or the F430 food grade version when pumping alcohols or foodstuff with solids.

If you are pumping one liquid or very similar liquids, you can use the F314 or F424 seal-less models, if you are pumping multiple diferent liquids or where cross contamination is not desirable use the F310 or F430 drum pumps.

To ensure you get the correct Flux spare parts, we need to identify the exact Flux pump model you have. Please provide the model and serial number found on the pump name plate.

Castle Pumps can supply all Flux pump parts detailed on the spare parts list including motor, o-ring, shaft seal, impeller, inner and outer tube worldwide.

If you are pumping one liquid or very similar liquids, you can use the F314 or F424 seal-less models provided that the materials are compatible, if you are pumping multiple diferent liquids or where cross contamination is not desirable use the F310 or F430 drum pumps.

The general rule of thumb is that for low-medium duty applications where viscosity is <250cP the F300 is sufficient. For heavy duty applications, flammable liquids and viscosities of <1200cP choose the F400. For shear sensitive fluids or viscosities that exceed 1200cP then the Viscpower is required. Upon disclosure of your application, we can confirm the best solution.

All Flux barrel and IBC pump models are available with additional accessories that we can supply as a kit should you need delivery hose, a trigger nozzle, valves, flow meter and any other fittings.
