Industrial pumps are designed to move fluids through process lines, transfer raw materials into reactors, circulate cooling fluids, or discharge wastewater from production areas. With numerous pump types available—centrifugal, diaphragm, gear, screw, peristaltic, and more—there’s a pump suitable for nearly every liquid-handling application.

Primary uses across industries

• In chemical manufacturing, pumps transfer raw materials, intermediates, and finished products throughout processing stages.
• In pharmaceutical production, sanitary pumps handle sterile liquids and ensure contamination-free processing.
• In food and beverage processing, pumps transfer liquids, slurries, and viscous products such as sauces or syrups.
• In water treatment, pumps move influent, effluent, and treatment chemicals through the system.
• In oil and gas processing, pumps handle crude oil, refined products, and process chemicals in upstream and downstream operations.

Types of materials processed

• Water, solvents, and process liquids
• Viscous slurries and pastes
• Corrosive chemicals and acids
• Heat-sensitive fluids requiring gentle handling

Common materials of construction

Pump construction materials are chosen to match fluid characteristics and process demands:

• Stainless steel for sanitary and corrosion-resistant applications
• Cast iron for general industrial fluid handling
• Hastelloy or specialty alloys for aggressive chemicals
• Plastic-lined pumps for corrosive or abrasive slurries

Key features of industrial pumps

• Wide range of pump types for diverse processes
• Available with sanitary, explosion-proof, or high-pressure designs
• Options for variable speed, pulsation control, and inline monitoring
• Suitable for batch, continuous, or metered flow applications
• Easy disassembly for cleaning and maintenance
