APEX hose pumps datasheet

Product catalog summary

Overview: The APEX series hose pumps, including models APEX10, APEX15, and APEX20, are designed for reliable and low-maintenance chemical metering. They feature a seal-less and valveless pumping principle, ensuring minimal maintenance and high reliability.

Key Features:

Configurable to accept three hose element sizes, allowing for future-proofing of processes.
Compact direct-coupled design reduces loading on the gear motor.
Flow rates range from 2.8 to 1,200 liters per hour with a maximum pressure of 8 bar.
Long-life hose elements significantly reduce maintenance needs.
Lower cost of ownership due to single component changes and reduced inventory requirements.

Specifications:

Continuous flow range: APEX10 (2.8 - 280 L/hr), APEX15 (5.5 - 550 L/hr), APEX20 (8.7 - 870 L/hr).
Intermittent flow range: APEX10 (2.8 - 390 L/hr), APEX15 (5.5 - 770 L/hr), APEX20 (8.7 - 1200 L/hr).
Capacity per revolution: APEX10 (0.046 L/rev), APEX15 (0.091 L/rev), APEX20 (0.145 L/rev).
Maximum discharge pressure: 800 kPa (8 bar).
Operating speed: Continuous up to 100 rpm, Intermittent up to 140 rpm.
Temperature range: Product (-10°C to 80°C), Ambient (-20°C to 45°C).

Materials of Construction:

Pump housing: Die-cast aluminum.
Pump rotor: Cast iron.
Cover: Copolyester.
Brackets, fasteners, and hose clamps: AISI 316.
Dynamic seal: NBR.
Cover window: PMMA.
Cover seal and hose connection sealing bush: EPDM.

Options and Configurations:

Available hose materials include NR, NBR, EPDM, and CSM.
Available rotors for low (0-4 bar) and medium pressure (0-8 bar).
Port configurations: Left, right, up, and down, with standard configuration at position 2.
Various hose connection options such as hose tail, BSP, DIN, NPT, ASA, and Tri-Clamp.
