POSSIBLE APPLICATIONS FOR TAPFLO INDUSTRIAL PUMPS AND EQUIPMENT FOR CHEMICALS
The Tapflo range of equipment is designed for a variety of processes used in the production of household chemicals, including:
Pumping chemicals in industrial plants:
Tapflo pumps are designed to transfer a wide range of corrosive and hazardous chemicals used in the chemical industry, including: transferring acids in anodising plants, pumping heating oil or coolants, circulating aggressive chemicals in pickling lines, transferring chemicals and untreated wastewater in electronics manufacturing, pumping ceramic slurry, preparing and recirculating liquid enamels, and any other application where pumps are exposed to corrosive conditions.
Chemical dosage
The dosing pumps in the Tapflo range are distinguished by their high accuracy, repeatability, and superior build quality. They are suitable for various chemical processes, including the dosing and transfer of enamels or additives in tile production, dosing chemical reagents into mixers, chlorine dosing, and sampling liquids for analysis. They are ideal for dispensing air-sensitive chemicals such as those found in the ceramics industry or for paint recirculation. Our product range includes diaphragm dosing pumps, peristaltic dosing pumps, piston pumps and other chemical dosing pumps. The high capacity of the Tapflo dosing pump ensures proper operation under all conditions.
Emptying drums or tanks of chemicals
Emptying drums containing corrosive products or transferring sewage sludge. Suitable pumps include those for dosing acids and alkalis, liquid dosing, or transferring sensitive products. Many Tapflo chemical pumps, such as the diaphragm pump, drum pump or dosing pump, are ideal for such applications. Tapflo also offers specialised HVS discharge systems for applications such as lubricants, inks, paints, resins, coatings or sealants.
High-pressure homogenisation
This is a widely used process in the chemical industry, applied, for instance, to produce high-quality paints or varnishes by dispersing pigments or resins during homogenisation. Tapflo's process and laboratory homogenisers provide uniform particles of the desired size, which can be the substrate for both new and existing applications.
Homogenisation of chemicals
Agitators can be used in chemical processes to disperse reactants evenly to speed up chemical reactions. Tapflo chemical mixers are used, among other things, to mix the ingredients to form a homogeneous product, e.g. to create a colour or corrosion protection system, or to prepare an adhesive before use. The resulting chemicals will always be of the highest quality.
Flow control
The nature of the chemical industry requires constant control of industrial processes to make them as accurate and safe as possible. Tapflo ball valves, safety valves, flap valves, plug valves, diaphragm valves, mixproof valves, overflow valves, as well as check valves, test valves or valve islands are all made of stainless steel. We ensure the selection of the appropriate valve type and guarantee optimal process control.
Maximizing Pump Reliability with Original Spare Parts
Proper maintenance of pumps is critical to ensuring reliable and uninterrupted operation in any industry. Using only original Tapflo spare parts guarantees that every component meets strict quality standards, ensuring optimal performance and longevity of your equipment.
In demanding environments, including chemical processing and ATEX zones, genuine parts help prevent unexpected breakdowns, minimize costly downtime, and maintain the safety and efficiency of your operations.
Investing in original Tapflo components provides businesses with peace of mind, enabling continuous production and long-term reliability for all pumping systems.
