Drum Pumps

Product Description

Drum Pump Specifications

NETZSCH Drum Pumps actually pump their way through your products reaching the bottom of the drum with less than 1 parcentage left in the container. The heart of the drum emptying unit is a Drum Pump which creates positive displacement, low pulsation flow to convey your product without damage. In fact, most products are only exposed to the friction loss through the discharge piping.

The NETZSCH single slide rail system raises and lowers the follower plate safely while providing a simple and easy structure to clean.

FAQs: 

Q: What is a drum pump?

A: A drum pump is a type of pump that is specifically designed to extract liquids or other materials from drums or other similar containers. It typically consists of a motor or manual-operated pump and a tube or hose that extends into the drum to extract the contents.

Q: How does a drum pump work?

A: Drum pumps use positive displacement technology to create a low pulsation flow that conveys the product without damaging it. The pump creates suction at the inlet and discharges the product through a discharge pipe. As the product is drawn out of the drum, air is allowed to enter to equalize the pressure, preventing the formation of a vacuum inside the drum.

Q: What types of products can be pumped with a drum pump?

A: Drum pumps can be used to pump a wide range of liquids and other materials, including chemicals, lubricants, food products, and pharmaceuticals. They are ideal for transferring viscous, shear-sensitive, and hazardous materials that cannot be pumped using conventional methods.

Q: What are the advantages of using a drum pump?

A: The main advantage of using a drum pump is that it allows you to extract nearly all of the contents from a drum or container, with less than parcentage remaining. This reduces waste and saves money on product disposal. Additionally, drum pumps are designed to handle a wide range of materials, making them versatile and cost-effective.
