All-plastic AODD pump for hydrochloric acid
Case 2022-06-14
Client: A steel manufacturing enterprise in the Philippines
Application: Hydrochloric acid water cleaning and soaking of medium-frequency furnace induction coils; delivery distance: 70 m.
Existing Equipment: Hydrochloric acid self-priming pump, 1.5 KW, Head: 28 m.
Proposed Solution: QBY3-40 Polypropylene (PP) / PTFE (Teflon) Diaphragm Pump (Explosion-proof Model)
*************************************** Problems Solved ****************************************
| Pain Points with Existing Pumps | Post-Implementation Results |
| Corrosion & Leakage: Seals require weekly replacement. Acid leakage occurs 2–3 times per month, leading to severe corrosion of the factory floor and damage to surrounding electrical control equipment. | Drastically Reduced Failures: Since switching to our diaphragm pump 8 months ago, the system has required only one routine maintenance check. It has operated leak-free with zero clogging-related shutdowns. |
| Costly Downtime: Each repair results in a production halt of 2–4 hours, causing significant daily output loss on the affected production line. | Superior Head Performance: Even with a delivery distance of 70 m, the pump maintains robust flow rates, fully satisfying production demands. |
| Safety & Environmental Risks: Volatile fumes pose health hazards (risk of chemical burns to operators) and fail environmental compliance standards. Monthly expenses are incurred for hazardous waste cleanup and disposal. | Enhanced Productivity & Revenue: Annual unplanned downtime has been reduced by approximately 140 hours, resulting in several extra tons of steel output and a direct increase in revenue. |
| Insufficient Head: Head of 28 m fails to meet process requirements. | Safety & Compliance: With zero leakage, acidic fume emissions in the workshop have dropped significantly, ensuring a safer working environment for operators. |
