| These pumps were developed to take
maximum advantage from the key features of a group of
synthetic thermosetting resins.
The resins used are
characterised by excellent resistance to chemical
attack, strength and hardness comparable with many
metals, and a good resistance to abrasion from fluid
borne
abrasives. A range of resins is used to gain optimum
chemical resistance to the many fluids and chemicals
encountered in industry.
The Pacifichem product provides then a cost-effective
alternative for many processes which would normally
require the use of exotic metal alloy or plastic lined
pumps. Equally, other more innocuous but nonetheless
troublesome fluids such as chlorinated water and
seawater are handled with ease and with useful economy.
 MATERIAL
FEATURES |
- Broadest range of chemical
resistance for full operational
coverage
- Suitable for process
temperatures from -20°C to +140°C
- Excellent strength and hardness
- Resists erosion in chemical
slurries
- Non-Sparking and non-galling
- Beneficial in solvent
applications
- Does not support bacterial
growth
- and can be steam sterilised
- Relatively low mass reduces
component weight
- Low vibration and noise due to
inherent attenuating properties of
resin
- Low cost when compared with
exotic metals and advanced
thermoplastics
