Wide Range of Materials of Construction
As an air-operated diaphragm pump, the new Quantm is offered in a wide range of materials of construction to cover industrial and hygienic applications, including sanitary, chemical processing, water treatment, paint manufacture, food and beverage and pharmaceuticals. The pump is self-priming, dry running, capable of handling solids and abrasives and can be safely shut down under pressure. In addition, the Quantm only requires a standard 110V-240V power supply (no compressed air required).
Integrated Controls and No Gearbox
The pump is designed to be a reliable drop-in replacement for existing pneumatic pumps or for greenfield construction. With no gearbox and built-in controls to regulate flow and pressure, this pump is designed for harsh industrial or hygienic environments. The new FluxCore motors and drives deliver up to eight times more continuous torque at low speeds than conventional motors, according to the company.
Graco currently offers the Quantm design in 1″ (Quantm i30), 1-1/2″ (Quantm i80) and 2″ (Quantm i120) sizes. Many material options are available for pump bodies, diaphragms, seats, balls and seals.
