Bungartz will be showing its hermetically sealed all-ceramic chemical pump K-MPCV-AN at ACHEMA 2018, Hall 8, Stand C 1.

The centrifugal pump of type MPCV is a dry-running, self-regulating and hermetically sealed design. The vertical pump does not require a minimum volume flow or a large static head. The 3-phase is now available as an all-ceramic version K-MPCV-AN.

The chemical pump MPCV was designed for pumping extreme media which hot, corrosiveand abrasive, such as ammonium nitrate with dolomite, iron oxide, gypsum and dust slurries.

Dry running

Equipped with a magnetic coupling and roller bearings, which are permanently dry-running, the K-MPCV-AN operates without bearings in the pumping liquid. The shaft gap seal concept is based on the hydrodynamic relief of the bearing and seal unit. Back vanes and a gas barrier prevent product vapors from penetrating the bearing unit.

The grease-lubricated roller bearings can give service lives of more than five years in continuous operation. The eddy current-free magnetic coupling means that the pump hermetically seals itself against its surrounding environment.
