When would you use a magnetic drive pump?

Magnetic drive pumps are typically used where leakage of the pumped liquid poses a great risk such as with aggressive or risky liquids, exotic materials, acids, alkalis, corrosives, pollutants and toxics. They are also used for ultra-pure liquids and hard-to-seal liquids.

Can mag drive pumps handle solids?

However, in saying that a lot of mag drive pumps can not pump solids, there is one mag drive pump which is designed to be able to handle solids up to 6mm – The Techniflo TB series pump. This pump uses an advance design with tighter tolerances, which allows it to handle solids.

Are mag drive pumps sealless?

A magnetic drive pump is a sealless pump that uses a magnet drive system which eliminates a conventional shaft seal.

What is a mag drive pump?

What is a Mag-drive pump? Mag-drive pumps are a design of magnetically-driven chemical-process pump which eliminate the need for shaft sealing. This greatly reduces the initial cost of the pump as well as day-to-day operational costs as there aren’t any mechanical seals, seal-fluid pots, or cooling lines fitted.

Are mag drive pumps self priming?

SMX Series of magnetically driven non-metallic pumps offer an innovative true self-priming design with no mechanical seals for years of trouble-free service.

What is sealless pump?

A sealless mag drive pump is a conventional centrifugal pump without the dynamic seal that would normally be used to seal the pump shaft. This dynamic seal is replaced by a static containment shell to form a completely sealed liquid end or pressure boundary.

How does a sealless pump work?

What is a sealless pump?

How does a magnetic sealless pump work?

The principle of operation is very simple. The magnets in the outer and inner magnet rings are attracted to each other, so as the electric motor rotates, the outer ring and the inner ring rotate at the same speed, thus rotating the impeller and causing liquid to be pumped.

How do you prime a magnetic pump?

To prime, pour liquid into the outlet tubing or piping and allow it to fill the pumping chamber. The pump will normally prime with less effort when a foot valve is installed at the end of the suction line; this will also eliminate the need to reprime each time the pump is turned off.

What is a canned pump?

What is a canned motor pump? A type of pump designed to move fluids with absolutely no chance of leakage. They are considered an alternative to a magnetic drive pump that insures zero leakage, while at the same time eliminating the mechanical seal, which is often the most expensive component to maintain in a pump.

How does a can pump work?

The stator is canned in the air gap, confining the liquid in the rotor chamber. The pump liquid circulates through the rotor chamber, cooling the motor, and lubricating the slide bearings that support the rotor. The casing of the chamber forms a sealless enclosure that confines the liquid without any dynamic sealing.

What is a sealless magnetic drive pump?

What is a sealless magnetic drive pump? A sealless mag drive pump is a conventional centrifugal pump without the dynamic seal that would normally be used to seal the pump shaft. This dynamic seal is replaced by a static containment shell to form a completely sealed liquid end or pressure boundary.

Why choose Ansimag sealless drive pumps?

ANSIMAG sealless magnetic drive pumps are more energy-efficient than mechanically sealed pumps. An innovative rear casing generates no eddy currents thus eliminating heat generation and reducing energy costs. Because ANSIMAG pumps do not have seals – there are no leaks, no emissions and no costs related to seal maintenance.

Why choose sealless centrifugal pumps?

Sealless centrifugal pumps with magnetic drive have been around the industry for 70 years now. They offer plant engineering contractors and operators a 100% leakage free pump associated with the highest operational safety, low maintenance and adherence to strict environmental standards.

Why choose magnetic drive pumps?

By eliminating the use of dynamic seals, magnetic drive pumps are the safest and most robust equipment for chemical transfer. Traditional seals are designed to lubricate and cool themselves by leaking small amounts of the pumped fluid as they operate, representing unavoidable fugitive emissions and jeopardizing working conditions.
