Safe emptying tanks in chemical industry

Chemical industry tanks safely emptied

Every one active in the chemical industry is familliar with the transport and storage of chemicals. Also in the process industry many fluids tanks are emptied. Mostly the chemicals are either toxic, aggressive or dangerous. In all parts of chemical and process industry emptying tanks is daily business. Safety is one of the most important issues.

Are you looking for a safe way to empty tanks? No matter if the fluid is toxic, dangerous or very aggressive? The corrosion resistance of the Verdermag mag drive pumps is excellent. And of course, when unloading tanks safety is most importance.

Top unloading tanks

If you have a chemicals tank with a top unloading inlet, a self priming pump system is needed. The Verdermag magnetic driven centrifugal pumps are hermetically closed and have excellent priming capabilities. Without dangerous pressure at the mag drive pump Verdermag takes care of safe and reliable fluid transport when emptying tanks.

Corrosion resistance through E-TFE and Ceramic

The mag drive pump is made of E-TFE and has a Ceramic shaft for extra corrosion resistance. The shaft is connected in front and rear casing. At start up, the Verdermag pump is being filled with the fluid to be pumped. After operation when the pump is stopped, the fluid and the chemicals remain in the pump housing. A non-return valve prevents back flow. These pumps take care of a safe and secure emptying of chemicals tank, without leakage, without danger.

The max. flow of the mag drive pump is 30 m3/h. The pump has a maximum discharge head of 26 m. Self priming capabilities is 6 m.

With the Verdermag self priming mag drives, tanks can be emptied completely; safe and reliable.

If you have a self priming pump problem in chemical or process industry please do not hesitate to contact us.
