Pacer Pumps Upgrades Series I Self-Priming Centrifugal Pump.



Now available in Ryton® Engineered Thermoplastic

LANCASTER, PA - August 24, 2006 - For over 30 years, Pacer Pumps has been a market leader in pump manufacturing, and the Series I self-priming centrifugal pump is just one reason for Pacer's long-standing, solid reputation in the industry.

Having a polished 316 stainless steel body and held together with a stainless steel band clamp, the Series I pump construction allows for a variety of applications from irrigation to agriculture, swimming pools and marine use. Its most popular use is for applications in the chemical industry. The unique combination of the pump's stainless steel body and thermoplastic internal parts enables the pump to withstand highly corrosive conditions. Models are available close coupled to electric, hydraulic, and pneumatic motors, as well as gasoline engines. Pumps are also available built onto cast iron pedestals with stainless steel shafts for flexible coupling to your own power source.

The latest upgrade to the Series I pump features the addition of Ryton® for the pumps' internal materials of construction. Ryton® is a high performance engineering resin known for its dimensional stability and resistance to corrosive and high-temperature environments. It is recognized as one of the best engineered thermoplastic materials for demanding industrial applications. The addition of Ryton® to the existing lineup of polyester and polypropylene extends the list of chemicals that can be pumped as well as increasing the upper temperature capabilities of the pump.

The chemical composition of the material to be pumped determines which plastic internal parts are required. Pacer works one-on-one with each of its customers to determine the best performing and most affordable materials to be used, so customers are sure to get a Pacer Pump with the most compatible features suited to their specific needs. And 100% of Pacer's parts are always in stock, allowing for fast turnaround on all customer orders.

Pacer serves as the primary pump supplier for many critical operations with companies worldwide. One such company is Integrated Marine Systems, Inc. of Port Townsend, WA which uses Pacer's Series I pump in their 7.5-ton Hydro Chiller, providing corrosion-free service to chill and freeze seafood aboard fishing vessels. "We've been working with Pacer for over 10 years and it's been a great relationship. We really like their products, they work well for us, and the company provides great service," says Mark Burn, owner of Integrated Marine Systems.

Pacer Pumps is a worldwide market leader in the manufacture and distribution of high quality thermoplastic pumps for industry, agriculture, marine, aquaculture and construction applications. Pacer manufactures a complete line of corrosion resistant pumps, and has been in business in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania since 1974.
