  • .

The horizontally installed, compact container pump MINIFLUX is designed for emptying IBCs via their floor-level outlet. Designed as an alternative to a vertical pump, the MINIFLUX can be used when an IBC is not accessible from the top. It is suitable for applications when gravity draining via the outlet tap is insufficient e.g. rapid dispensing or transfer to another container in a higher location. Power can ideally be provided by a commutator or compressed air motor.

  • 1 The maximum delivery rate is a test bench value, measured with water at 20 ° C at the pressure port of the pump, without accessories (hose, nozzle, flow meter). The practically achievable delivery rate is lower. It depends on the individual application, the fluid properties and the pump configuration. Please refer to technical data sheets / performance diagrams.

Product attributes

  • For pumping out of IBCs directly from the outlet (with standard S60 x 6 thread)
  • Simple connection of the pump to the outlet by union nut
  • Compact design
  • Can be dismantled into two parts via clamp
  • Low overall weight of 1.2 kg
  • No need to mount pump to top of container
  • Does not require access to the container from above
  • Ideally combined with commutator motor or compressed-air motor

Benefits

  • Can be used where ceilings are low
  • Allows pumping directly from floor-level outlets, even when containers are stacked
  • Significantly higher flow rate and pressure compared to draining by gravity
  • Minimal space requirement
  • Simple disconnection from IBC with union nut
  • Delivery against closed valve (e.g. hand nozzle, flap valve etc.) possible
  • Suitable for use in hazardous areas zone 1
