The robust way to pump
Finsterwalder hydraulically operated KV20 ball valve pumps, suitable for all types of free-flowing and largely homogeneous slurries, are extremely low-wear and insensitive to abrasion. Various drive modules are available, which are selected according to customer specifications.
The low-wear alternative
Ball valve pumps are characterized by a very simple design and are therefore less susceptible to faults. This applies in particular to media containing sand, as ball valve pumps do not contain any rotating parts. The KV20 is hydraulically driven and available with one or two ball valves, depending on the required flow rate.
Web visualization
Like every other machine from Finsterwalder Umwelttechnik, the KV20 ball valve pump has a touch panel on the control cabinet and a web visualization. The machine can be easily controlled and settings can be made via the web HMI using any internet-enabled device. The process can also be monitored via this interface, which ensures process reliability.
