Pumps

Centrifugal and air-operated diaphragm pumps for process duty.

What it is

Close-coupled centrifugal pumps in stainless steel for clean and lightly loaded process fluids, and air-operated double diaphragm pumps for aggressive chemical transfer where you would rather not put a motor near the liquid. Both ranges are built at Aston and tested on our own rig before they ship.

What it is not

Neither range is a slurry pump. Above about 3% solids by weight the centrifugal models wear quickly and the diaphragm valves clog — you want a progressive-cavity or peristaltic unit, and we will tell you so.

Materials

  • Stainless steel impeller and casing on both centrifugal models
  • Polypropylene body with PTFE diaphragms on the DP-50
  • Mechanical seal to suit the duty — specify the fluid and we will select it

Options

  • Close-coupled or bare-shaft
  • Flanged or threaded connections
  • ATEX-rated motor on the centrifugal range
  • Trolley or baseplate mounting for the DP-50

Where this range is used

Application notes rather than case studies — we do not name customers without asking, and most would rather we did not.

Clean-in-place circulation

The P-100 is the usual choice for CIP return duty in a small brewery or dairy: stainless wetted parts, enough head to push through a plate pack, and a footprint that fits under a skid.

Chemical dosing and transfer

Where the fluid would destroy a mechanical seal, the DP-50 runs dry indefinitely, self-primes, and stalls against a closed valve without complaint. Air in, no electricity near the liquid.

Borehole and transfer duty

The P-200 covers most general water transfer between 20 and 40 m³/h. Beyond that we would rather quote you a multistage set than oversell a single unit.

Sectors this range serves

  • Water & wastewater

    Our largest sector, and the one we have been in longest.

  • Food & beverage

    Stainless, cleanable, and documented.

  • Chemical & process

    Where the fluid is trying to destroy the equipment.
