Re-designed pumps well suited to ceramic applications


Blagdon Pump Ltd, the leading UK manufacturer of air-operated double diaphragm pumps, has launched revised versions of its 2in and 3in aluminium pumps.

These are completely re-designed units which carry on the reputation for high quality pumps for which Blagdon is noted, whilst showing a considerable price reduction over the models they replace. Flow rates are improved and the air valves, which are fully externally serviceable, require no lubrication and are guaranteed stall-free.

Weighted balls are fitted as standard, a feature particularly suited to the ceramic industry, where the products handled have relatively high specific gravities.

The Blagdon range also includes a "full flow" high pressure pump capable of flow rates in excess of 100 gallons/min (30 cu.m/hr) and pressures up to 17 bar. This pump offers a cost effective alternative to the pumps traditionally used to feed filter presses and slip ring mains.

Further information on these pumps or any other Blagdon products can be obtained by visiting their website at www.blagdonpump.com.
