Powerful new Motors for portable drum emtying pumps from Michael Smith Engineers
21 May 2009
A powerful 650 watt motor which produces a maximum10,000 rpm speed for outstanding flow and head capabilities is one of the new motor options recently introduced for the Finish Thompson range of portable drum and barrel emptying pumps.
Available from pump specialists Michael Smith Engineers are the new M3V and M5V motors are designed for use with the popular PF and TBF series drum pumps.
Features include an innovative tool-free motor attachment method whereby the lower section of the motor has a collet style connection. Operators simply slide the motor onto the pump tube and then rotate a nut to tighten and the pump is ready to use.
Other features include infinitely variable electronic speed control which means fluid flow can be precisely controlled, double wall motor housing which minimises noise and vibration and a downdraft cooling system which contributes toward extended motor life.
These new motor options further extend the capabilities of the established range of Finnish Thompson drum pumps which are ideal for transferring many liquids, including corrosives, solvents and viscous fluids. Models are available to handle capacities up to 150 lit/min and viscosities up to100,000 centipoise.
