New Compact Chemical Dry Pump Range



WILMINGTON, USA (5th July 2007) - BOC Edwards, leading manufacturer of vacuum equipment, has launched a new range of compact chemical dry pumps - the CPH(TM) chemical dry pump series. Industry is under increased pressure to save space on the plant floor and these pumps are a cost competitive and simple solution, ideal for use in chemical and pharmaceutical applications. They are fully ATEX compliant and users can reliably pump a wide range of flammable vapors.

There are two new pumps in the range, the CPH250 chemical dry pump, with a 250m3/hr throughput, and the CPH400 chemical dry pump, with a 400m3/hr capacity. Both offer excellent pumping speeds from atmospheric pressure down to an ultimate pressure of less than 0.5mbar.

They are also available as pre-engineered pump and booster combinations with BOC Edwards' popular EH range of mechanical boosters to give a compact package with pumping speeds up to 2,700m3/hr and a low ultimate pressure which is well suited to applications such as solvent drying.

"Traditional pump systems can often be bulky," says John Skeates, business development manager, BOC Edwards. "Our new pump and system designs mean we can offer customers a neat, fit-and-forget solution that is easy to install."

The CPH chemical dry pump series is designed, manufactured and tested in accordance with international standards for pumping flammable materials, and is ATEX compliant.

The CPH chemical dry pump series builds on BOC Edwards' long history of developing innovative dry pumping solutions, and the experience gained from having over 100,000 pumps installed worldwide. The existing DP & EDP series pumps are available for advanced liquid handling and temperature management applications.
