Drum Pumps

A drum pump is a vertical centrifugal pump in which an impeller rotates at 10,000 – 12,500 rpm at the lower end of a stainless steel or Hastelloy drive shaft. Many customers also refer to this type of pump as a rod pump or submersible pump. It always consist a drive (electric or compressed air driven) and a suitable immersion tube for the application. For different applications (depending on chemical resistance and temperature), the pump tubes are available in different materials. With the exception of applications in hazardous areas, all immersion tubes can be combined with all drum pump motors via the handwheel and without tools.
