Why You Need to Invest in Our Epoxy Resin Pumps

Most people in the pumping industry know about the incredible benefits of epoxy resin pumps. They are known for their durability and robustness, and are a popular pick in many industries and for applications that use harsh or corrosive liquids or chemicals. Many chemicals will erode pumping equipment over time, and you need sturdy models that can handle all materials with ease.

Our principal Prochem range is created with thermosetting epoxy resin. Epoxy resin is well known for its durability and water-resistance, and is often referred to as a polyoxide. The material is used in adhesives and coatings thanks to its strength. It was first used and patented in Germany in 1934 and today it is utilised in a wide range of industries and applications.

Some key industries that might utilise epoxy resin pumps include:

• Petrochemical industries
• Mining industries
• Pharmaceutical industries
• Food processing plants
• Water waste plants
• Oil and gas industries

Within the chemical industry, centrifugal pumps are most commonly used. These pumps are considered beneficial for a number of reasons.

Firstly, they are energy efficient and can save users a great deal of money when it comes to running costs and their longevity. This also means that they do not put too much pressure on energy systems, and many devices can run at one time. The longer your pump lasts, the later you can replace it and you do not have to keep forking out on new products.

These models are also known for their durability, and they will get the job done effectively, and with ease, every single time. Our centrifugal models are able to draw chemicals or liquid by way of their impeller, and this acts much like a vacuum when the suction is activated.

Other pumps used in chemical industries include displacement models, diaphragm devices, and turbine pumps. When the epoxy resin is added to the mix in the manufacture of pump devices, these pumps are enhanced and their ability to withstand even the harshest of chemicals and liquids is ensured. Thus, epoxy resin makes pumping a safer endeavour, and it means that no industry has to be without an effective pumping solution for their various applications and requirements.

If you are not looking for an epoxy resin pump, we also manufacture models with other materials, such as:

• Stainless Steel
• Hastelloy-c
• Cast Iron
