Solution

Drum pump F 430 Ex S with commutator motor F 460 Ex

The Challenge

Highly flammable flavorings are transferred from drums to mixing tanks. The application takes place in a hazardous area and requires ATEX-compliant, hygienic, and precise dosing systems.

Risk of explosion

Flammable flavorings require components that are fully ATEX-compliant and grounded throughout the entire conveying system.

Precise dosing

The volume of material being conveyed must be accurately measured in order to reliably control mixing processes.

Ease of cleaning

Changing flavors require hygienic connections and quick, tool-free cleaning.

The solution:

F 430 Ex S drum pump with FMO

The F 430 Ex S drum pump with a mechanical seal safely transfers flammable flavorings from 200-liter drums. When combined with the explosion-proof F 460 commutator motor, operation is ATEX-compliant. The FMO flow meter accurately measures the flow rate. Clamp connections allow for hygienic, tool-free disassembly. A ground cable ensures reliable equipotential bonding in the Ex zone.

Process Flow

Reliable Conveyance and Precise Dosing in Four Steps.

1. Connect the system

The drum pump is positioned inside the 200-liter drum, and all components are connected in accordance with ATEX standards and grounded.

2. Start the grant

The collector motor drives the pump and safely delivers the orange oil to the mixing tank.

3. Enter the quantity

The FMO flow meter continuously measures the volume of fluid being pumped to ensure precise dosing.

4. Clean the system

Clamp connections allow for tool-free disassembly and quick, hygienic cleaning.

Hygienic and secure connections

Clamp connections allow for quick, tool-free disassembly of all parts that come into contact with the product. The mechanical seal prevents product carryover when switching between different flavors.

Result

ATEX-compliant handling of flammable flavorings

Precise volume measurement through integrated flow measurement

Hygienic design that allows for quick cleaning
