The EcoTrans MULTISAFE Double Hose Diaphragm Pump is one of the latest innovations by Feluwa representing a hydraulically activated double hose-diaphragm pump. The functionality of the pump is to transport abrasive, aggressive, highly viscous or toxic fluids, making it highly suitable for feeding of filter presses, reactors and spray driers applications.
It is designed for a flow rate of 2 to 20 m³/h and achieves operating pressures of up to 16 bar, providing a genuine alternative to the pumps that are being used in low-pressure applications.
The EcoTrans series of diaphragm pumps are in compliance with the requirements of “Industry 4.0”. The EcoTrans Pump Series offers operators optimum integration in common process controls systems and early fault detection that is unique in this class.
Feluwa has been around since 1901, and with over 100 years of innovation and technological advancements, Feluwa has focused on ensuring the pump technology it presents are at the forefront of innovation, integrating technological advancements into its design and functionality showcasing its pump technology in its industrial applications.
The EcoTrans MULTISAFE Double Hose Diaphragm Pump pumps in its industrial applications highlights advantages such as;
- Tried-and-tested MULTISAFE Double Hose Diaphragm Pump technology; Only the valves, pipes and hose-diaphragms come into direct contact with the medium. This means that the pump casing does not require expensive special materials such as duplex stainless steel. In view of the fact that the piston seals only come into contact with they hydraulic liquids, they have an extended service life. This reduces maintenance costs and significantly increases the availability of the pump.
- Efficiency; FELUWA hose-diaphragm piston pumps achieve a hydraulic efficiency of up to 98%, the highest of all pump technologies. The EcoTrans MULTISAFE Double Hose Diaphragm Pump combines high efficiency with low energy consumption.
- Maximum availability and low maintenance costs; The high degree of high volumetric efficiency and low energy consumption as well as the long service life of the wear parts reduce the operating and maintenance costs to a minimum. With a service life of more than 20,000 operating hours, the hose-diaphragms are not a typical wear part. In consequence, the cost of spare parts only amounts to approx. 2% of the purchase cost (CAPEX) per year.
- Safe and reliable process; The hermetically sealed double hose-diaphragm system guarantees safe and reliable transport of critical and environmentally hazardous fluids. Two hose-diaphragms, which are arranged one inside the other, are fitted in the pump head and ensure that the medium is safely contained and efficiently conducted whilst the periphery remains hermetically separated. This means that any leakage to the outside or contamination of the medium is precluded.
- Frequency converter; The requirements for modern pump systems are continually charging. It is therefore recommended to equip the pump with a tailor-made frequency converter in order to be able to vary the volume flow within a large range while maintaining high efficiency.
- Hose-diaphragm condition monitoring; The FELUWA Hose-Diaphragm Guard (HDG) permanently monitors the inner and outer hose-diaphragm and detects leakages early. Even with leakages at one hose-diaphragms operation can be maintained until the next planned service and contamination of the conveyed medium or contact to the hydraulics can be safely prevented.
Options
The EcoTrans MULTISAFE Pump comes with options to better suit industrial applications;
- FELUWA DownFlow Technology (DFT); For the purpose of transporting fluids containing solids with a tendency to sedimentation, FELUWA literally turns the traditional pumping principle upside down. In this case, the fluid is transported from the top downwards, thus using gravity to aid transport. This is a reliable method for avoiding sedimentation and any associated failure of the entire pump.
- In-built piston compressor; In order to reduce fluctuations in terms of pressure and flow, the EcoTrans MULTISAFE pump has been designed as a modular system allowing the piston rod – which is guided on both sides – to be extended as a piston compressor. This reduces fluctuations in pressure to a minimum and ensures optimum damping, resulting in significantly more even and efficient transport with low-wear characteristics.
- Crankshaft coupling; Pulsation in the pipe system is efficiently prevented by coupling the crankshafts of several pumps. These pumps supplying the same pipe system can also be located apart from each other.
- Safety with all operating conditions; Feluwa prioritizes safety above all else, this ensures that the pump with not be damaged even in the circumstances of operating mistakes or in cases of extreme operating conditions. With the FELUWA Suction Guard (SG), it provides maximum protection of man and machine – not only in the case of excessive inlet pressure, but also in the case of a blocked suction pipe.
