Tapflo powder transfer pump...
 |
Economical compared with other complex powder systems | |
|
Convenient and safer than manual powder handling |
The powder is transferred in a hermetic system from the powder container to your process.
Economical and compact solution
The Tapflo powder transfer pump can do the same job as many complex and large powder systems. The compact design also makes the unit portable.
What kind of powders?
The powder transfer pump will handle different types of process powders, with specific weight from 80 up 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. A few examples of common powders are sintering powder, carbon black, resins and silicones.
1) Process powder
2) Valve ball
3) Diaphragm
4) Non return valve
5) Needle valve
6) Air induction line
The air induction system eliminates powder pack up problems when starting the pump. Air is induced to the powder side of the pump for diffusion of the powder. The induction flow can manually be adjusted by means of a needle valve to obtain a optimum performance.
How it works
The powder transfer pump is based on a standard Tapflo air operated diaphragm pump. The powder is transferred by means of two diaphragms, which alternately prime the powder from the container in the first cycle and discharge to the process in the second cycle.
Capacity
The capacity of the powder transfer is extremely different from one powder to another, depending on the consistency and weight etc. Fore more specific information about the capacity in your application, please contact your local Tapflo distributor, or click here to fill out the inquiry form on our website www.tapflo.com.
Safe in EX-zones
The powder transfer pumps are ATEX marked, allowing use in explosion hazardous zones (group IIG/IID, category 2).
