Sealless Magnetic Drive Pumps for Mining Applications
Not all pumps are suitable for mining operations. First, technicians need quality, reliable pumps to support the extraction process. Second, mining applications can generate hazardous byproducts, which must be handled with extreme caution. For safe, effective mining, sealless magnetic drive pumps are key. Built for heavy-duty chemical applications, Finish Thompson’s mag-drive pumps are the premier solution for a full range of mining applications.
Typical Applications
- Unloading of tank trucks and rail cars
- Transfer chemicals from bulk storage to process
- Transfer chemicals from bulk storage to day tanks used in water treatment
Which Series are Applicable?
Pump Details
DB Series, SP Series
Magnetically coupled, sealless centrifugal pumps. While NOT manufactured from FDA compliant materials, Finish Thompson DB Series and SP Series pumps are designed from the ground up to pump corrosive chemicals.
Features
- No mechanical seal – Powerful rare earth magnetic drive system eliminates the troublesome mechanical seal.
- Corrosion resistant – Engineered for the most aggressive liquids, manufactured from polypropylene or PVDF.
- Run dry ability – Makes them less prone to operator error or system upset.
- Self-priming option – SP Series pumps can lift fluid from as deep as 25 feet (7.6 meters) below the pump or can pull liquid out of the top of a tank eliminating through-the-sidewall bulkhead fittings.
MSDB Series
Features
- Multi-stage design – to produce much higher heads at lower flow rates than similarly sized single-stage pumps.
- Performance – Heads up to 300 feet (91.5 meters) are possible, with a minimum flow rate of one gpm (0.23 m3/hr) and a maximum flow rate of 69 gpm (15.7 m3/hr).
- No mechanical seal – Powerful rare earth magnetic drive system eliminates the troublesome mechanical seal.
Drum Pumps
Finish Thompson drum pumps are extremely versatile and are not just for use in in drums. A wide range of tube lengths allow them to be used in drums, barrels, totes, IBCs (intermediate bulk containers) and other container sizes.
Features
- PP, PVDF or 316SS tubes – Select based on your application
- Built-in hose and cord clips – Specific models
