Caustic pumps
Caustic soda (or sodium hydroxide, caustic soda) is a natural byproduct of chlorine production. According to the laws of chemistry, for every ton of chlorine obtained, about 1100 kg of caustic and 28 kg of hydrogen are obtained. Caustic soda is widely used in industrial processes. Membrane and gear pumps are considered the best pumps for caustic:
Diaphragm pumps for caustic are self-priming even at a significant suction height (up to 9 m), when the pump is not overloaded, it is also possible to fine-tune the speed without pressure loss, adjust flow and pressure, the possibility of long-term operation without overload and damage. There are models available that have high chemical resistance to alkalis and acids of high concentration.
- Capacity: up to 980 m3/h
- Pressure: up to 8 bar
- Temperature: +110°C
Gear pumps for caustic soda are designed to work in conditions of light, medium and periodic production load. Simple design and inexpensive maintenance make these units ideal for a variety of industries. Capable of sucking the product to a height of up to 5 m. Suitable for dosing and filling applications.
- Capacity: up to 250 m3/hour
- Pressure: up to 16 bar
- Temperature: +320°C
