Description
Applications:
The Lutz mixing pump tube is designed to be used in any situation where it is necessary to mix and pump in a single operation. The relatively small pump tube diameter of 1.97" (Polypropylene) and 1.61" (Stainless Steel) also makes the unit ideal for use in narrow containers or in drums with a 2" bunghole. The flowrate, viscosity and density of the medium determine the mixing intensity and the delivery rate of the mixing pump tube. Experience has shown that the volume to be mixed should preferably not exceed 55 gallons if the medium is thin-bodied.
Structure and Function:
The drive shaft of this pump tube is sealed by a single-acting mechanical seal (MS) above the impeller, making a robust sealing system. The pump tube must not be allowed to run dry. The pump tube is non-lubricated, thus preventing contamination of the liquids pumped.
Length:
39", 47"
