Abaque
ABAQUE is a brand by the world-trusted pump innovator PSG. The brand features Peristaltic Hose Pumps that are preferred for the toughest pumping needs. These pumps boast durability and efficiency amid abrasive and aggressive fluid handling.
They are also strong solutions for moving sheer-sensitive products, viscous materials, and solid-laden media. Flow in these pumps can be reversible, enabling full capacity and drainage, and utilisation in other transfer scenarios.
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Industrial Peristaltic Pump
The pumping action of a hose pump is achieved by compressing a circular loop of elastomeric hose with two diametrically opposed rotating shoes. With this rotational motion, fluid is pushed ahead inside a hose compressed and relaxed by shoes mounted on a rotor. When each shoe reaches the end of the loop, the reinforced tube immediately returns to its original shape, ensuring suction and priming, creating a strong vacuum pulling more fluid inside.
Features & Benefits
Abaque Peristaltic Hose Pumps
- Gentle pumping, reversible flow
- No piping, plugs or connections on the front cover
- Heavy-duty ductile iron and steel construction
- Self-priming up to 9 metres
- Sealless, leak-free, eliminates product contamination
- Ability to run dry continuously
Durable
Ductile iron and steel construction allow higher discharge pressures to 16 bar (232 psi). Its solid construction and advanced design also reduce maintenance and repairs.
Reliable
The Abaque Series pump is self-priming to 9.5 m (32.8 ft) manometric lift. This pump is able to run dry continuously without detrimental effects. The pump is capable of running in forward or reverse.
Seal-Free
Seal-free design eliminates leaks and contamination. Fluids are contained within the hose. The hose is the primary maintenance component.
