Pumps Tolerate Flammable Liquids

Nov. 11, 2009

The latest pumping solution for spill-free, environmentally safe transfer of flammable liquids is in production now. The SCP-6500 Pumps will be available March 1, 2010. Featuring a lug with a grounding wire on the front of the pumps, and made with conductive plastic, the SCP-6500 Pumps allow users of flammable liquids to ground the pumps, making them safe for use with class 1 and class 2 flammables. All components of this new pump which come in contact with the fluid are created with conductive plastic, so there is grounding of the liquid, the pump, and, with correct bonding, to the container. A worldwide leader in environmentally preferable liquid transfer solutions, GoatThroat Pumps are designed to fit containers and drums from 5 to 55-gallons and are available in four models, have a cost-effective life expectancy of 10 to 15 years, and provide for spill-proof, safe transfer of over 850 fluids and solvents. They are RoHS compliant. Designed to drain containers dry, making them Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) empty, these food grade pumps also meet UN safety standards, helping customers meet compliance and environmental requirements.
