Explosion-proof pump
 Explosion-proof
pump is a pump that prevents internal or external explosions by
enclosing parts that could ignite either the surrounding atmosphere or
the transfer media.
Types of Explosion proof pump:
- Bladder Pump
- Canned Motor Pump
- Centrifugal Pump
- Diaphragm Pump
- Piston Pump
- Peristaltic Pump
- Gear Pump
- Drum Pump
- Axial Pump
- Condensate Pump
- Dosing Pump
- Fire Service Pump
- Jet Pumps
- Screw Pump
- Sump Pump
- Refueling Pump
- Rotary Lobe Pump
Uses and Features of Explosion Proof Pump:
- Important specifications for explosion-proof pumps are inlet
size, discharge size, maximum discharge flow, maximum discharge
pressure, and media temperature.
- Power sources for explosion-proof pumps include alternating
current (AC), direct current (DC), compressed air, gasoline, diesel
fuel, natural gas, water, steam, hydraulic systems, and solar
energy.
- Manually powered explosion-proof pumps rely upon hand or foot
power.
- Explosion-proof pumps are used to move abrasive materials, acids,
adhesives, chemicals, concrete and grout, coolants, hazardous
materials, liquid metal or lubricants.
- Other devices are rated for combustible, corrosive, high
viscosity, or high temperature media.
- These pumps are also used to move potable water, salt water,
wastewater, sewage, sludge, gasoline, diesel fuel, and oil, ground
water, ash slurry, gas and air, powders, solids, and a variety of
liquids and liquids with solids.
