Downtime in chemical and process industries translates to lost revenue, production delays, and potential safety risks. These industries operate with aggressive chemicals, abrasive slurries, and demanding schedules, making equipment reliability non-negotiable. Progressive cavity pumps from Viscid Flow offer a dependable solution to reduce these challenges. Known for their reliability, chemical compatibility, and consistent performance, these pumps are engineered to handle a wide range of industrial fluids.
Why They Work:
With their sealed design and ability to handle fluids containing solids or particulates, progressive cavity pumps excel in environments where consistency and minimal maintenance are vital. Their positive displacement mechanism ensures low-shear pumping, preserving the chemical properties of fluids and avoiding aeration.
Common Use-Cases:
- Acid & Base Transfer: Constructed with corrosion-resistant materials like stainless steel or Hastelloy to withstand aggressive pH levels.
- Slurry Handling: Capable of transferring fluids with suspended solids, ensuring no clogging or excessive wear.
- Resin & Polymer Pumps: Delivers precise, pulsation-free flow essential for polymer processing and resin mixing.
- Chemical Dosing: Provides metered and accurate flow in both batch and continuous processes.
Viscid Flow’s Innovation:
Our chemical series pumps are built with chemically resistant linings, dual mechanical seals for added safety, and customizable drive options such as variable frequency drives (VFDs). Designed for continuous operation, they minimize unexpected downtime and reduce the need for frequent maintenance.
Customer Testimonial:
An industrial adhesive manufacturer in Gujarat reduced unscheduled shutdowns by 40% after upgrading to our progressive cavity pump system. The maintenance head reported that cleaning and inspection times were cut in half, and spare part replacement intervals extended to over 12 months. By investing in quality progressive cavity pumps, companies not only protect their product integrity but also gain long-term cost savings through reduced wear, increased uptime, and energy-efficient operation.
