The
Pitbull pump is an innovative, simple solution to many of industry's
difficult pumping applications. Using only two check valves
and a hollow
chamber, the Pitbull will fill and then discharge almost any
combination
of liquid and solids that can flow through its wide open inlet.
The operation of the Pitbull is inherently automatic unlike
conventional
pumps, so it will match the cycle rate to the inflow rate, and
shut itself off
when flow stops without needing level controls. Pitbulls use
compressed
air as the motive force, acting directly on the liquid without
the need for
diaphragms or seals. The all-pneumatic operation simplifies
installation,
eliminates shock hazards and is suitable for explosion-proof
areas.
Submersible pumps:
Pitbulls are available in the following standard pipe sizes;
2", 3", 4", 6" and 8x6" in both steel
and 316SS construction. Flow ranges are from 0-350 gpm, with
a maximum head of 250'. Higher flow rates can be achieved with
custom pumps on request. Solids capacities are equal to the
pipe size in 2"-4" units and 5.5" diameter in
the larger pumps.
Typical applications are trash sumps, mill scale, bottom ash,
raw sewage, machining chips, coal, paper stock and general solids
or slurry handling services. Hot liquids, hazardous locations,
remote sites, oil/water separators are among the many other
niche applications that are popular.
Filter-press feed/dewatering pumps:
Pitbull are also used for sludge/slurry transfer and dewatering
applications. With their outstanding ability to handle abrasives,
multiple viscosities and variable heads the Pitbulls are a natural
maintenance reducer for these applications. Sizes available
are 3", 4" and 6" in both steel and 316SS.
