Flux F 424 Ex Solvent Barrel Pump Kit – For Highly Flammable Solvents

Firstly, the Flux F 424 Ex solvent barrel pump kit is a high quality, ATEX-certified solution for safely transferring highly flammable and volatile solvents. It is ideal for tough industrial, petrochemical and laboratory environments. This pump is constructed from stainless steel, PTFE and ETFE. It uses our highly robust, seal-less design, which virtually eliminates the risk of leakage or vapour release. Furthermore, the FP 424 Ex features the unique Flux PTFE spiral shaft bearing system and a removable foot piece. Consequently, it delivers class-leading long-term durability and superior vibration resistance.  Additionally, we offer the pumps in two lengths and with a choice of electric or pneumatic motors for maximum flexibility. The kits also come with a conductive 2 m hose featuring swaged and bolted hose connections. The kit also includes an ATEX-safe stainless steel hand nozzle and an earth bonding cable. Therefore, the FP 424 is ideal for handling liquids such acetone, methanol and petroleum derivatives. Ideal for chemical manufacturing, coating production, the petrochemical industry or for solvent dispensing. This kit reliably empties containers in hazardous Zoned areas and maintains full safety compliance.
