FPC- 1" Solid PTFE Block AODD Pump - Solid Handling Apllication

The Boxer FPC is a 1" AODD pump machined from solid block PTFE. Traditional designs of AODD Pumps have suction and discharge manifolds which connect to diaphragm chambers and contain seals. As this unit is machined from a solid block, such seals are eliminated ensuring leak paths for fluid or vapour are not present. Solid block PTFE construction ensures a heavy-duty structure, in one of the most chemically resistant materials available for corrosive liquids, ensuring process safety and longevity in hazardous environments. The design of this type of pump mean it has a very gentle pumping action making it excellent for handling shear sensitive fluids. The patented air motor ensures that the pump will not stall if there is a significant drop in air pressure entering the motor. This diaphragm pump is rated for Atex zone 2 as standard meaning it is suitable for operation in flammable environments, as well as zone 1. This AODD pump is also able to run in high humidity environments which may cause issues for other pumps fitted with electric motors. This unit is able to run dry for long periods and is capable of self-priming up to 9m vertically. The flow rates from this diaphragm pump can be varied very easily by altering the air pressure entering the motor; this versatility allows the operator the ability to dispense very precise flow rates if required achieving varying flow rates up to 130L/min. The Boxer FPC diaphragm pump can be utilised for many acids, alkalis and corrosive liquids within the pharmaceutical and chemical industries. As its construction is machined from PTFE, it means this is the only material the pumps come into contact with. Product Summary •Heavy duty construction as unit is machined from solid block PTFE eliminating manifolds and associated seals ensuring greater safety and prolonged design life.• Self Priming up to 9M•Anti stall air motor meaning should the pump encounter a dead head, once the pressure is released the motor will continue to operate as normal. If low air pressure is encountered the pump will continue to function as normal, when operating pressures increase back to normal•Our AOD Pump design means that it contains up to 60% less parts than conventional designs meaning maintenance is much quicker. • ATEX Rated to STANDARD: II 3G Ex h IIB T4 Gc, II 3D Ex h IIIB T135°C Dc (zone 2) CONDUCT: II 2G Ex h Iib T4 Gb, II 2D Ex h IIIB T135°C Db (zone 1)•Suitable for continuous use•Dry running capability ensuring tanks can be completely emptied and is a low maintenance pump•Long life profile diaphragms with a design cycle life of over 50 million cycles.•Our AOD Pump design means that it contains up to 60% less parts than conventional designs meaning maintenance is much quicker.•Operates on non lubricated air ensuring atmosphere is not contaminated via the pumps exhaust.•High viscosity handling up to 50,000cp•Accessories available including; pulsation dampener, air regulator, stroke counter, batching controller, flange kits and anti vibration feet.
