More than just pumps VISCOPOWER Progressive cavity pumps of the 500 series

VISCOPOWER The FLUX VISCOPOWER progressive cavity pump pumps low-viscosity to high-viscosity media at up to 100 000 mPas. Examples of media Virtually all media, from low-viscosity to high-viscosity and pasty, media that is sensitive to shearing and even media containing solids can be pumped with the VISCOPOWER. And the pump can be used in all sectors such as industry, chemicals, hygienic, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics.
