Description
The FLUX VISCOPOWER F580 TR industrial progressive cavity pump is a specialized solution designed for horizontal installation, making it ideal for transferring highly viscous products and fluids that are just capable of flowing. Engineered with a bearing flange for stability and efficiency, this positive displacement pump provides smooth, pulsation-free fluid transfer at constant pressure. It can be mounted on a cart for mobile use or secured onto a base plate for integration into industrial processes. The F580 TR version is also used with VISCOFLUX Mobile S drum unloading systems, further expanding its application range. With its modular design and minimal components, the pump is easy to dismantle, clean, and service.
Key Features and Benefits
Superior Pumping Performance
The FLUX VISCOPOWER F580 TR operates as a progressive cavity pump, ensuring a steady, controlled, and low-shear liquid transfer.
- Pulsation-Free Operation: Guarantees smooth and uniform fluid flow without sudden fluctuations.
- Handles Extremely High Viscosities: Suitable for substances up to 100,000 cPs.
- Adjustable Flow Rate: Can be controlled precisely when combined with a frequency-controlled three-phase motor.
- Constant Pressure Transfer: Ensures a stable and efficient pumping process.
Designed for Horizontal Installation
Unlike traditional vertical pumps, the FLUX VISCOPOWER F580 TR is installed dry, meaning it is not submerged in the liquid.
- Ideal for Tanks and Closed Containers: Designed for applications where top access is not possible.
- Stationary or Mobile Use: Can be mounted on a base plate for permanent installations or attached to a cart for portability.
- Compatible with VISCOFLUX Mobile S: Optimized for drum unloading systems in industrial workflows.
