How to Select the Right Pump

There are several types of pumps suited to different applications, from an industrial gear pump to a chemical dosing pump. Selecting the right industrial pumps depends on the type of fluid to be pumped, the distance the fluid must move, and the quantity of fluid that needs to be pumped over a certain time frame.

What Are Industrial Fluid Pumps?

Industrial Pumps are the backbone of industry, used in a wide variety of applications that require moving liquid through a certain distance at a required rate of speed. Industrial pumps are pumps specifically designed for heavy duty, harsh applications. Industrial pumps are designed to move materials like:

• Chemicals
• Sludge and slurry
• Food and Beverage
• Asphalt
• Chocolate
• Oil and Gas
• Animal Feed
• Water and Wastewater

What Makes Chemical Industry Pumps Unique?

A chemical pump is specially designed to transfer chemicals. These pumps are resistant to abrasive and corrosive industrial liquids, so they can be used for:

• Fuel
• Paint
• Bleach
• Solvents
• Acids
• Varnish
• Glycol

Chemical pumps can be either centrifugal pump or a positive displacement pump, and the right type depends on the specific application. In either case, a chemical gear pump is designed to be much more durable than a conventional pump.

When Is a Stainless Steel Pump Beneficial?

Producers will often specify a stainless steel pumps for chemicals, because a stainless steel chemical pump has many advantages for harsh environments.

• Stainless steel is an alloy consisting of iron, carbon, and other elements including chromium, which adds rust resistance. Therefore, in a pump stainless steel protects against corrosion and oxidization. As a result, a stainless steel gear pump is a more long-lasting and durable choice than other materials.
• A stainless steel chemical pump is particularly strong, and therefore low maintenance.
• A stainless steel pump offers low maintenance and excellent heat strength.
• A SS chemical pump can be easier to install than pumps made from other materials because it can be welded.

In harsh environments, a chemical pump needs to be both rugged and versatile. Stainless steel is ideally suited for acids and caustic materials, so a stainless steel chemical pump is often specified.

• Non-Metallic pump
• High alloy pump
• Kynar pump
• Plastic pump
