Process Pumps
Solutions for transferring and managing process fluids
Industrial pumps for chemical and process applications
Fluid System supplies process pump solutions for industrial applications in collaboration with Argal, a manufacturer specialised in pumps for transferring, recirculating and dosing chemical and industrial fluids used across many process industry sectors, including water treatment, chemical, galvanic and marine applications, and more generally wherever complex fluids need to be handled safely and reliably. Through this partnership, Fluid System can offer a structured range of process pumps, selected and configured with the support of its Specialists, who assist customers with technical selection and after-sales service.
Process pumps are critical components in industrial systems where corrosive, abrasive or viscous fluids are handled. Selecting the most suitable technology — air-operated diaphragm pumps or centrifugal process pumps — directly affects reliability, operational safety and continuity of service, depending on the fluid handled, the operating conditions and the construction materials — engineering polymers, composite materials and corrosion-resistant steels — selected to ensure chemical compatibility, mechanical strength and reduced maintenance costs over the system life cycle.
Types of Process Pumps
Within a process system, application requirements vary according to the type of fluid, the presence of solids, continuity of operation and system configuration. For this reason, the Fluid System offering is based on two main pumping technologies, each with a clearly defined role.
A solution for transferring and dosing difficult, abrasive or shear-sensitive fluids (main applications: viscous fluids, fluids containing solids, aggressive chemicals, discontinuous dosing). Compressed-air operation ensures safe, self-priming performance, also suitable for discontinuous applications or harsh environments.
Brand: ARGAL
A solution for continuous transfer and recirculation applications, with high flow rates and structural integration into the system (examples of applications: water treatment, chemical plants). This technology includes different construction configurations, including horizontal and vertical versions, to meet specific process requirements.
