Product catalog summary
Company Overview
POMTAVA S.A., located in the Swiss Jura, specializes in manufacturing precision gear pumps and metering systems since 1986. The company is ISO 9001:2008 certified, offering fast repair services, customized testing, and maintenance courses. POMTAVA is recognized for its precision, reliability, and flexibility in addressing customer needs.
Product Specifications
POMTAVA gear pumps are highly configurable with various connecting blocks, bypass blocks, and sealing systems. They provide continuous, pulsation-free metering from 0.0005 to 20 l/min, handle viscosities from 0.1 to 1,000,000 mPas, and operate at pressures up to 250 bars. Constructed from materials like stainless steel, titanium, and PEEK, ATEX versions are also available.
Painting Applications
These gear pumps are ideal for painting applications due to their accuracy, flushability, and durability. They can manage pressures up to 15 bars and revolution speeds up to 200 rpm. An ADLC coating can enhance performance by hardening stainless steel and reducing friction.
Gear Pump Series
- **..11 Series**: Universal painting gear pumps with flow rates from 3 to 4400 cc/min, suitable for solvent or water-based paints.
- **..18 Series**: Robust gear pumps for abrasive paints, featuring double lip seals and a liquid barrier.
- **..22 Series**: Ultra-fast flush pumps with improved flushability, suitable for frequent paint changes.
Modularity and Accessories
POMTAVA pumps offer modularity with different connecting blocks and drive shaft heights. Accessories include bypass blocks, pressure sensors, and pneumatic valves. The rUVolution pump is designed for UV paints, eliminating friction issues and requiring no sealing maintenance.
Dispense Control Device (DCD)
The DCD integrates a metering gear pump with a gear flowmeter, ensuring reliable metering for automated production. It offers options like ATEX certification, pressure transducers, and digital displays.
Bypass Blocks and Paint Changers
Bypass blocks enhance flushability by guiding the flushing product along gear teeth. Paint changers allow for working with different paints using a single gear pump, minimizing dead zones and improving flushability.
Specifications
1. Standard version with 1 channel and 2 paints per block, supporting up to 38 different paints.
2. Emulsion block includes air and flushing product.
3. Paint selection is managed through pneumatic valves with a valve air control pressure of 6 bars (87 psi).
4. Maximum product pressure is 20 bars.
5. Threading inputs/outputs are G1/8’’ with FFKM seals between each block.
6. Recirculation options include straight or piloted, with straight or elbow connections for various hose sizes.
7. Multiple mounting bracket options are available.
Procedures
1. Paint changer type 4006 allows operation with one paint in channel 1 while channel 2 is flushed and prepared for the next paint, requiring two pumps.
2. The system supports productivity gains by performing flushing as a background task.
Norms and Recommendations
1. The paint changer type 4020 is designed for embedding on a robot arm, featuring easy maintenance with a new clip system.
2. PTFE guiding seals are used between each block, with options for recirculation and connections for ø6/8mm hoses.
3. The 2K Mixer - PTMIX is made of stainless steel, ensuring durability and efficient flushing. It features separate channels for each component input controlled by pneumatic valves to avoid contamination.
Key Data from Tables and Diagrams
1. PTMIX configurations include options with or without dump valves and with one or two separate solvent inputs.
2. Contact information for POMTAVA and its global branches is provided, including locations in Switzerland, Spain, Italy, North America, Poland, China, and Germany.
