We are in the planning stage for a new plant that will produce surfactants.
We require a pump that will inject 1 L of hydrogen peroxide water per minute into a reaction tank, but we are having difficulty selecting this pump due to the harsh conditions.

• As a design policy for the plant, we are unifying the material of liquid end parts to PTFE.
• We require a piping distance to the injection point of the reaction tank of 180 m, a height difference of 15 m, and (when we calculated it) a pump discharge pressure of 0.7 MPa.
• We cannot find a rotary pump model that meets both the conditions of material and pressure.
• We found diaphragm pump models that meet the conditions, but they have pulsation and therefore require the installation of an air chamber. This is a dangerous liquid, so we do not want to use an air chamber, which has the risk of being damaged.

The customer contacted us to see if they could use a Smoothflow Pump, so we selected a model.

• We have delivered a large number of pumps made of PTFE in the past, so we had no trouble in meeting this condition.
• The max. discharge pressure for a pump made of PTFE is 0.5 MPa with the standard specifications, but we cleared the customer’s condition of a pressure of 0.7 MPa by revising the valve design and customizing the pump.
• Smoothflow Pumps have no pulsation, so we were able to construct a safe liquid transfer system that does not require the installation of an air chamber.
