Petrochemicals

Petrochemical media place high demands on safety, dosing accuracy, and material resistance. Volatile, flammable, or lubricating substances require pumping technology that enables controlled filling, transfer, and dosing. FLUX addresses these challenges with drum pumps, eccentric screw pumps, compressed-air diaphragm pumps, and flow meters. For potentially explosive atmospheres, explosion-protected versions compliant with ATEX 2014/34/EU are available.

  • Explosion-proof pumps for ATEX Zones 1/2
  • Precise dosing with FLUXTRONIC®
  • Drum pumps for fuels, oils, and solvents
  • Air-operated diaphragm pumps for flammable media
  • Material options for chemical resistance
