Selection of low-flow pumps
Thread Content
A toluene stream with a flow rate of 0.5 m3/h needs to be continuously pumped out, at a head of around 15 meters. Could someone recommend a suitable explosion-proof pump for this purpose?
The head is insufficient for low flow rates; I’m not sure which model would be suitable
CQ-type and CQB-type magnetic pumps can be equipped with explosion-proof motors

For a long time, ITT has offered such low-flow pumps for selection. We once chose a small-flow pump with a capacity of 0.5 cubic meters and a length of 30 meters; centrifugal pumps have very low efficiency. Later, we considered electric diaphragm pumps, but in the end we opted for peristaltic pumps (such small-flow pumps generally require metering capabilities).
I guess a magnetic vortex pump will be needed. 15-30. Magnetic drive has no leaks, making it suitable for your explosion-proof operating conditions.
