Our TXP Powder Pump is an economical and compact alternative to many complex and large powder systems, and is designed to handle a range of industrial and sanitary process powders with specific weights from 80 – 720 kg/m³. Based on our standard Air Operated Diaphragm Pump, our ATEX-rated TXP Pump uses compressed air to drive 2 diaphragms, a design that prevents powder blockages. To ensure our Powder Pump is right for your application, a general rule is that if the powder does not clump together when squeezed in your hand, it can be used successfully. Due to the nature of powders, we will always trial a Powder Pump with your application first to ensure everything runs smoothly.

Typical applications for our Powder Pump:

  • Mining
  • Catalytic Converter Manufacturing
  • Medical Powder
  • Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs)
  • Frozen Food
  • Food Production
  • Icing Sugar
  • Brewery
  • Plastic Manufacturing

The innovative design of our Powder Pump not only means it can be portable, but also reduces the space requirement for powder transfer applications. The complexity and cost of installation, commissioning, and maintenance requirements are all reduced. The non-stick PTFE coating enables an efficient transfer through the pump with the least possible resistance.

What powders can our Powder Pump handle?

Our Powder Pump will handle different process powders, with specific weights from 80 to 720 kg/m³ dry weight. Generally, if the powder does not clump together when you squeeze it in your hand, the Tapflo Powder Transfer Pump can be used successfully. Examples of standard powders are sintering powder, carbon black, resins and silicones.

How does a Powder Pump work?

The TXP Powder Pump is hermetically transferred by means of the two diaphragms, which alternately prime the powder from the container in the first cycle and discharge to the process in the second cycle.
