Fluids Handling

NEW DRUM PUMP FROM MICHAEL SMITH ENGINEERING IS IDEAL FOR LESS AGGRESSIVE FLUIDS

Listen to this article

Portable drum and barrel emptying pumps are the simple, effective and therefore essential for transferring a wide range of fluids from tanks, drums, barrels and IBCs. Liquids handling specialists MICHAEL SMITH ENGINEERS recently added a new lower cost option to its extensive range of drum pumps, the Finish Thompson PFM pump.

Based upon the proven design and the majority of the same corrosion resistant materials as used in their market leading polypropylene PF drum pump, the PFM pump features a (316) stainless steel shaft as opposed to the standard PFP (with alloy 625 shaft). With around 50% of all PF drum pumps used for transferring neutral or mildly corrosive fluids, this sealless model provides a lower cost option.

The PFM pump can be supplied with an impact resistant electric motor in Polypropylene moulded housing. This incorporates an integral comfort grip handle which provides operators easy access to the on/off switch. Air motors are also available.

PFM pumps have interchangeable tubes and motors and are easy to clean and maintain. They can also be run dry and handle capacities up to 150 lit/min and liquids with viscosities up to 2000 centipoise, and are available as standard in 27″, 40″, 48″, 60″ and 72″ tube lengths.
