Air Pressure Pump for Drum Can (for delivery of solvents stored in drum cans)

Model APD-20SUSEX is suitable for delivery of solvents. It is equipped with a suction pipe, a gun nozzle and a ball valve. Outstandingly easy to use. Coping with high viscosity fluids as well (up to 3000 cP - recommended max). Remember to always make sure the fluid you are going to transfer is compatible with pump's material. A compressor is required. A drum can is not included.

Delivery mechanism:

• Air (0.1~1 MPa) is let in
• Through the regulator, the compression is set to 0.05
• The compressed air is being let into the tank
• The pressure inside the tank rises, pushing the surface of the fluid
• The pushed fluid enters the suction pipe
• The fluid enters the delivery hose and leaves the system through a gun nozzle

What is an air pressure pump?

By letting compressed air into a container like a drum can, the inner pressure of the container is being changed. This way the fluid can be dispensed (APD pumps), collected (APDQ pumps), or both dispensed and collected (APDX pumps). Because the liquid does not have contact with any other objects during dispensation, basically no harm can be done, therefore these pumps are suitable for delivering contaminated fluids and high viscosity (up to 5000 cP, depending on the model) fluids. Also, the air operated pump guarantees safety during dispensation or collection in hazardous areas (models AS, G, SUS are equipped with a ground wire). It is impossible, however, to use to use a gun nozzle or a flow meter, when transferring contaminated fluids.
