Nonmetallic Pump/Tank Carts Caustics, Acids

A new nonmetallic Mobile Pump/Tank Cart from Vanton Pump and Equipment Corp. transfers wastewater and caustic/acidic chemicals with no corrosion and ultrapure fluids with no contamination. All fluid contact surfaces of the tank, base plate, and secondary containment chamber are of solid polypropylene, polyethylene, PVC, or other inert thermoplastic, precluding corrosion across the entire pH range. The pump, a Flex-I-Liner model CC-PY12B, utilizes a rotor mounted on an eccentric shaft to push fluid trapped between a flexible elastomer liner and a solid thermoplastic body block at flows up to 2 gpm (7.6 lpm), pressures to 25 psig (1.72 bar), and temperatures to 185F (85C). The company also offers other mobile and stationary tank/pump systems equipped with larger Flex-I-Liner pumps to handle higher flows. (http://www.vanton.com)
