Complete Drainage drum pumps Polypro, stainless RE88 Pump Tubes |
 RE88 pump
tubes are designed to allow for near complete drainage of the contents of a drum using a
drum pump with a manual check valve on the end of the pump tube. Traditional drum
pumps will pump liquids to near the bottom of the drum however when they are turned off,
the liquid that is in the pump will drain back into the drum. To prevent this liquid
from returning to the drum, a slide valve is used to trap the liquid within the pump tube
-- the liquid would later be drained in another location probably the next drum. For
near complete drainage of the drum, it could be tilted to get most of the last bit of
liquid left in the drum. These pump tube are similar to the MMS Series pump tube and
use the same motors. |
 |
During normal operation, the stop
port is open to allow the liquid to feed to the impeller. |
 |
When the drum is empty, the slide
lever is moved to close the bottom of the pump tube to trap solution. |
 |
When the drum is almost empty, it
can be tilted to pick up additional liquid. |
 |
Drum pump tubes normally are
designed to feed solution from the side and well as from the bottom. This leaves
additional solution in the drum. |
 |
RE 88 pump tubes are designed to
feed only from the bottom of the tube for the minimum amount of solution to be left within
the drum. |
