Flameproof peristaltic pump EPP-50VFLP: Maximum safety for hazardous environments

The Electrolab Peristaltic Pump EPP-50VFLP is a specialized solution, engineered to provide the highest level of safety and reliability when operating in hazardous, flammable, and explosive environments. With its flameproof housing and stainless steel cladding, combined with the precision of a stepper motor, it is the indispensable choice for the chemical, pharmaceutical, and solvent industries.

Why is the EPP-50VFLP the top choice for safety?

This product is built with superior safety and performance features to meet the most stringent standards.

Flameproof housing and SS cladding

This is the most prominent feature of the EPP-50VFLP model. The Flame Proof Housing is designed to contain any explosion originating within the apparatus and to prevent the ignition of the surrounding explosive atmosphere. The Stainless Steel (SS) Cladding not only enhances durability and corrosion resistance but is also easy to clean, making it suitable for cleanroom standards.

Precise and stable dosing performance

Equipped with a stepper motor with a torque of 10 Kg/cm, the pump offers precise speed control from 1 to 200 rpm. This ensures a stable and highly repeatable flow rate, from 0.2 ml/min to 280 ml/min, ideal for dosing applications.

Contamination-free and maintenance-free pumping

The peristaltic principle ensures the fluid only contacts the inner wall of the tubing, completely eliminating the risk of contamination. The valveless, sealless design allows the pump to run dry safely, be self-priming, and be virtually maintenance-free, capable of 24/7 continuous operation.
