The little powerhouse – the KP10 piston pump
The KP10 piston pump is designed for the toughest and most wear-intensive applications. It is used when hot slurries or highly abrasive materials such as sand, stones, glass and metal splinters need to be pumped. The pumping process takes place by alternately opening the valves. As the hydraulically driven delivery cylinder moves forwards and backwards, the substrate is sucked into the pump through the inlet valve and pushed out through the outlet valve. This small powerhouse is ideal for sludges produced during the recovery and recycling of organic materials after pre-treatment, e.g. separated organic materials as well as biosolids and various other substrates and sludges. In addition to the pump, the scope of delivery includes a hydraulic unit and a control cabinet. The piston pump KP10 is available in the version as:
Non-return valve pump
- Closed system
- Variable slurries
- Ball passage up to 40 mm
and as
Slide valve pump
- Diffuser up to 80 mm
- Hydraulically driven gate valves DN100 PN10/16
Web visualization
Like every other machine from Finsterwalder Umwelttechnik, the small KP10 gate valve pump has a touch panel on the control cabinet and web visualization. The machine can be easily controlled and settings can be made via the web HMI using any internet-enabled device. This interface can also be used to monitor the pumping process, ensuring process reliability.
