Tsurumi offers
ATEX-certified sewage pumps
Düsseldorf,
16.01.2008
Tsurumi has released a range of sewage pumps that meet full
requirements for the ATEX European Directive for protection of workers
in explosive atmospheres. There are presently 11 models available from
three ranges: the BX-Series, CX-Series and UX-Series.
The first models were
delivered in early January and the new line will be among the products
showcased by Tsurumi at the upcoming IFAT environmental solutions
exhibition taking place in Munich, Germany between May 5 and 9.
Stefan Hörnschemeyer, marketing manager of Tsurumi Europe, says the new
range is already proving popular.
“These 11 models are a great start to our range of ATEX-certified sewage
pumps and the positive feedback from our customers means we are already
planning to extend this line further,” he says. “The pumps offer
customers a range of options depending on the type of fluid being pumped
and the throughput required. And of course they feature Tsurumi’s
trademark durability and ease of maintenance.”
Applications for the ATEX pumps will be in sewage plants, pumping
stations for untreated wastewater and manure tanks (used in the farming
industry). The BX-Series, CX-Series and UX-Series each feature
individual characteristics for different uses.
The CX-Series
Perhaps the most significant is the CX-Series which is equipped with a
cutter mechanism which chops solid matter in the fluid allowing it to be
pumped more easily. This cutter mechanism combines a carbide blade
integrated into a non-clog impeller and a saw-shaped inner surface of
the suction cover. This makes the CX-Series suitable for pumping
wastewater or liquids carrying waste and solid matter.
Like all of Tsurumi’s ATEX-certified pumps, the CX-Series comes with a
cable and flange for on-site positioning. A Guide Rail Fitting and
Discharge Bend are available as options.
There are three models in the CX-Series: the 80CX21.6, the 100CX42.3 and
the 100CX43.8. Motor sizes range from 1.6 kW to 3.8 kW and discharge
bores range from 80 mm to 100 mm.
The UX-Series
The UX-Series comprises four models and features a vortex impeller which
is used mainly to avoid clogging or wear caused by large or stringy
solids in the fluid. It does this by accelerating the fluid to great
speed to smoothly move it from the inlet to the outlet.
In addition to the standard accessories, the UX-Series comes with a
special screwed-in mating flange. It also has the Guide Rail Fitting and
Discharge Bend available as options. There are four models available in
the UX-Series: the 50UX21.6, the 80UX21.6, the 80UX22.4 and the
80UX24.0. Motor outputs range from 1.6 kW to 4.0 kW and discharge bores
are available at either 50 mm or 80 mm.
The BX-Series
The BX-Series features an impeller with a wide channel from inlet to
exit to prevent internal clogging by solids sucked in via the inlet.
They come with the cable and flange and are available with the optional
Guide Rail Fitting and Discharge Bend.
There are four models in the BX-Series: the 80BX21.6, the 100BX42.3, the
100BX43.8 and the 100BX43.8H. Motor outputs range from 1.6 kW to 3.8 kW
and there are discharge bores of either 80 mm or 100 mm available.
