We worked closely with a returning customer to supply them with an ATEX-certified Diaphragm Pump for their application, which included solid-laden fluids. We were able to offer them a high-quality pump again, strengthening our long-term relationship with the client.
Application

- Able to handle solids of up to 3mm
- A suction lift of 1m
- ATEX Zone 2 rating (the application may have hazardous materials or there may be a presence of hazardous environments/areas)
- Able to transfer 5m3 at 2 Bar

Pump Solution
Tapflo UK supplied a 1” Aluminium Diaphragm Pump with PTFE diaphragms and valve balls for longevity.
