CYB-ZKJ Series Corrosive Chemical Transfer Pump

FAQ

1. What type of pump is used for chemical transfer?

Pumps used for chemical transfer are typically corrosion-resistant, such as magnetic drive pumps, centrifugal pumps, or self-priming pumps. These pumps are capable of handling corrosive liquids and are commonly used in industries like petrochemicals and pharmaceuticals. When selecting a pump, it's important to consider the characteristics of the medium, temperature, and flow rate to ensure optimal performance and longevity.

2.What is the purpose of a transfer pump?

The purpose of a transfer pump is to move fluids from one location to another. These pumps are commonly used to transfer liquids such as water, fuel, chemicals, or other fluids between containers, tanks, or systems. Transfer pumps are essential in various industries, including agriculture, manufacturing, and chemical processing, for efficient fluid handling and transport.

3.When to use a transfer pump?

A transfer pump should be used when you need to move liquids from one location to another quickly and efficiently. Common scenarios include:

• Emptying or filling tanks and containers: When you need to transfer large volumes of liquid, such as in fuel storage or water tanks.
• Transferring chemicals or corrosive liquids: In industrial settings, when moving chemicals between storage areas or process equipment.
• Emergency situations: For draining flooded areas or removing unwanted water or liquids quickly.
• Agricultural applications: To distribute water, pesticides, or fertilizers across fields.

Transfer pumps are ideal when precise control and speed in liquid movement are required.

4.What pumps do you mainly produce?

 The duration for which you can run a transfer pump depends on several factors, including the pump type, its design, and the operating conditions. Generally:

• Continuous Duty Pumps: Some transfer pumps are designed for continuous operation and can run for extended periods, even 24/7, as long as they are within their rated capacity and properly maintained.
• Intermittent Duty Pumps: Other pumps are designed for short, intermittent use and should only be run for limited periods (e.g., 15-30 minutes at a time) to avoid overheating or damage.

Always consult the manufacturer’s specifications and guidelines to determine the safe operating time for your specific transfer pump model. Proper cooling and maintenance can extend the pump's runtime and lifespan.

5.What type of pump is used for most chemical pumps?

Most chemical pumps typically use centrifugal pumps or diaphragm pumps.

• Centrifugal Pumps: Efficiently handle large volumes of non-viscous and non-abrasive chemicals.
• Diaphragm Pumps: Durable and capable of handling highly viscous, abrasive, or corrosive liquids, making them suitable for dosing and metering applications.

Both types are widely used in industries like petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, and water treatment.
