A drum plate pump, commonly referred to as a drum pump or transfer pump, is a specialized tool designed for transferring liquids from large containers such as drums or tanks. It typically features a motor at the top of an immersion tube, which drives a pumping mechanism located at the lower end of the tube inside the drum. This configuration allows efficient liquid transfer without tipping the container, reducing risks of spillage or injury.
The pump can handle a variety of liquids, from low-viscosity fluids to thicker, more viscous substances. It is available in different materials like stainless steel or polypropylene to ensure compatibility with specific liquids, including corrosive or hazardous chemicals. These pumps are widely used in industries such as chemicals, food processing, and oil for tasks requiring safe and efficient liquid handling.
These prevent leaks or vapor emissions, ensuring the integrity of the fluid and reducing exposure to hazardous chemicals.
To avoid over-pressurization, which could lead to accidents or equipment damage.
Available for handling flammable liquids, these unloaders are designed to operate safely in hazardous environments.
Use of corrosion-resistant materials for handling aggressive chemicals reduces risks of degradation and failure.
