Bredel PetroProof Heavy Duty Hose Pumps For Hydrocarbons And Oils

PetroProof - the first heavy duty hose pump ever for hydrocarbons and oils.

The hose pump is only as good as its pump element with respect to the pump element’s mechanicaldynamical- and fatigue properties, as well as its resistance to chemicals. By carefully designing the pump element, an optimum can be achieved in these often-conflicting parameters. Up until now rubber based compounds have been used to manufacture the pump elements.

Hydrocarbons And Oil Products

‘Petrochemicals’ however, are difficult to handle using the various rubber based compounds. The NBR and CSM type of compounds might just be able to cope with small traces of these products, but in most cases the chemicals will attack the pump element. Commonly used oil resistant rubbers, such as ‘fluor elas tomers’, have poor dynamical properties resulting in very low lifetimes. The new PetroProof pump element is hydrocarbons and oil resistant and has the ideal properties for performing as a peristaltic pump element.

Up To 825 Litres/Hour

The PetroProof hose pump elements are available for the Bredel pump types SP/10, SP/15, SP/15 with 20 mm pump element and SP/25. Flow rates up to 825 L/h with pressures up to 750 kPa [7.5 bar] are currently possible.
