Eliminate manual fluid transfers with these pumps

| By Chemical Engineering

The Finish Thompson EF drum pump (photo) includes a shorter 16-in. tube length option that is ideal for transferring liquids, such as oils, acids and detergents from small drums, buckets and carboys. The pump is capable of delivering flowrates up to 64 L/min at discharge pressures up to 6.1 m. As an alternative to manual transfer methods and more efficient than hand pumps, the EF pumps eliminate the problems associated with heavy containers while reducing the risk of spillage. The EF Series can also be supplied with longer tube lengths (27, 40 and 48 in.) for larger containers. — Michael Smith Engineers Ltd., Woking, U.K.
