Whether your product is low viscosity (a product that will flow) or high viscosity (a product which will not flow), Mahr has a drum metering pump to suit your needs. Each system utilizes a gear metering pump which is force-fed by a special patented-design impeller. The impeller eliminates any possibility of cavitation in the metering pump. With a Mahr drum pump, no feeder pump is necessary, eliminating costly equipment. The drum metering pump is highly accurate with or without additional controls. Complete metering systems with recirculation loop, flow meter readout, PLC controls and mixing systems are available.

• Metering accuracy of ±1%
• Normal operating pressure >1000 psi
• Rated for pressure up to 5000 psi
• Flow rates from 1 ml/min to 15 liters/min
• Eliminates leakage
• Prevents contamination of product by air, gas, and moisture
• TEFC/TENV and Class I, Div II units available
• AC or DC driven

HV (platen-based) drum pump

• Platen sits on surface of product, rides down to bottom of barrel
• Rubber gasket on outside of platen completely cleans sides of barrel
• Meters product to bottom of container – very little waste product remains
• Viscosities from 100,000 to 2,500,000 cp
• 5 gallon, 55 gallon, and custom drum sizes available (straight-sided drum required)
