How to choose the right pump? Diaphragm pumps with electric drive or another solution?

As bombas de diafragma com acionamento elétrico da Husky são uma alternativa inteligente e eficiente para diversas operações dentro da indústria. Por conta da sua versatilidade, elas podem ser aplicadas em operações de diversos setores, como:

  • Pharmaceutical industry;
  • Indústria Química;
  • Industria Alimenticia;
  • Oil and gas industry;
  • Entre outras.

Because it is an equipment that meets a wide range of applications and temperatures and presents high flexibility, the Husky diaphragm pump with electric drive can handle most of the problems encountered in operations that apply other solutions available on the market. It also features a customizable design, meaning it can be adjusted according to the company's needs.

What are the main problems presented by conventional pumps?

Operations that apply conventional bombs end up facing some obstacles, such as the ones we will see below:

Centrifugal pumps

Despite having a reasonable initial purchase cost, these pumps cannot handle many types of fluids. Due to their complex structure and delicate components, these pumps cannot pump very abrasive fluids or those with solids. This type of fluid ends up damaging its structure and making the operation of its industry more expensive.

This pump is also not indicated to operate at high speed, due to the shear caused, being contraindicated for more delicate fluids.

Magnetic Drive Pumps

magnetic bombs:

Although this pump model can meet the demands of centrifugal pumps, they cannot meet the operations that deal with fluids that contain solids, being only efficient in pumping clean liquids. Another major problem caused by this type of pump is the overheating that the magnetic mechanisms present during operation. This high temperature can cause changes in the fluid and interfere with the final product.

Rotary lobe pumps:

These rotary lobe pumps need specific timing components, which are responsible for preventing contact between the lobes, which is one of their main benefits. However, these components and gears need constant maintenance and replacement, making the operation more expensive for the company. These pumps also do not deliver efficiency in pumping thin fluids with low viscosity.

Gear pumps:

This type of pump can handle viscous fluids over a wide range of temperatures. However, due to its delicate construction, it also has a very high maintenance cost and demand for expensive and complex parts. They also have a larger size than other pumps found on the market, not being compatible with several operations.

Progressive cavity pumps:

Progressive cavity pumps cannot run dry as they depend on the lubrication of the pumped fluid to remain intact. In addition to this problem, this pump also has a mechanical sealing system that wears out easily and is expensive. Pumping fluids at high temperatures or abrasives favors the incidence of leaks, not being the best solution for sanitary and hazardous applications.

Peristaltic pumps:

This type of pump is highly used in the market, but it also has some negative characteristics depending on its application. It has a high maintenance cost and contains components that are very sensitive and degrade easily. Because you need additional leak measures, this may not be the best solution for your operation.
