The Argal ZM-ZMA range of thermoplastic self priming pumps from The Pump Company ensure that chemical spills can be pumped away with the minimum of fuss.

This range of pumps is available in a choice of polypropylene, PVDF and PVC body materials, and can be supplied with a range of single or double mechanical seals in various materials.

The pump sets have the added advantage of being available mounted to an optional two-wheeled stainless steel trolley which comes complete with a three-phase electric motor starter to enable the users to easily move the pump set around the site.

With suction lift up to 5m depending on fluid characteristics (specific gravity and vapour pressure), the pump has been specifically designed to handle chemicals and aggressive liquids without the need for a check valve.

Semi-open impellers are capable of handling slightly charged liquids and are robustly designed to handle frequent stop/start cycles.

Flanged or threaded connections make it easy to suit any installed system.
