Motor-driven Metering Pump Sigma/ 1 (Basic type)
Capacity range 5.3 – 38 gph (20.4 – 144 l/h), 174 – 58 psi (12 – 4 bar)
The Sigma/ 1 Basic is an extremely robust motor-driven metering pump with patented multi-layer safety diaphragm for excellent process reliability. It offers a wide range of power end designs, such as three-phase or 1-phase AC motors, also for use in areas at risk from explosion.
Product description
Overview
Overview
The robust pump for safe and reliable use
The Sigma/ 1 diaphragm metering pump, together with pumps of type Sigma/ 2 and Sigma/ 3, represents an integrated product range. They cover the capacity range from 4.49 – 272.1 gph (17 to 1,030 l/h, with a consistent operating concept, control concept and spare parts management. A wide range of power end versions is available, including some for use in areas at risk from explosion.
Your benefits
Excellent process reliability:
- In the event of an accident, the feed chemical does not escape to the outside nor into the pump’s power end, thanks to the patented multi-layer safety diaphragm with optical (optionally electric) signalling.
- Integrated relief valve protects the pump against overload and bleed option during the suction process ensures reliable operation.
Flexible adaptation to the process:
- The entire Sigma product range is available as standard in a “Physiologically safe in respect of wetted materials” design.
- Metering pumps with electro-polished stainless steel metering head enable them to be used in hygienically challenging applications.
- Adaptation to specific installation situations, as the “Liquid end on left” option can be selected as standard.
- Wide range of power end versions, also for use in ATEX areas and different flange designs for the use of customised motors.
- Customised designs are available on request.
