Abrasive fluid pump
24 September 2014
AxFlow has added Blackmer’s new XLW4A wear-resistant sliding vane pump to the Blackmer range of pumps for which it has exclusive distribution throughout the UK. The 4in ported pump has been field tested for almost two years handling an abrasive detergent/soap and is reported to have performed flawlessly.
The Blackmer XLW range of ductile iron sliding vane pumps have a proven record in handling abrasive fluids including oxide primers, inks, paints and adhesives. The range has also been used successfully on vertical and horizontal bead mills, solvent recovery, tank bottom recirculation, heat transfer supply, enhanced oil recovery as well as crude and hot oil transfer.
The hardened internal parts deliver long life and excellent wear resistance, allowing the pump to be used on applications with suspended abrasive particles up to 250 microns with a 25% concentration.
