A new range of magnetic drive pumps, available in three types of hydraulic configuration: centrifugal, regenerative turbine and sliding vane, is now available from Pump Engineering. 3M Mag-drive pumps offer long-life, reliable performance and low maintenance. In particular, the absence of seals eliminates the potential for leaks and emissions and so guarantees a higher level of safety and reliability compared to other pump types.
The centrifugal version, with closed impeller for liquids transfer and circulation, provides flows up to 1,000 m3/hr and heads to 1,300m, whereas the peripheral regenerative turbine gives smooth, pulsation-free, low and medium flows up to 10m3 /h and heads up to 1,000m. Finally, sliding vane pumps also ensure pulsation-free dosing and injection, and provide flows up to 3000 litre/h and pressures up to 13bar.
Depending on the model, 3M pumps can handle liquids at temperatures from 150°C to +450°C, and are available in a wide choice of materials including stainless steel, Hastelloy C, Incoloy, Titanium, PP and PVDF.
