WITTE CHEM HIGH PRECISION GEAR PUMP

CHEM – high precision gear pump for conveying low to medium viscosity fluids

CHEM gear pump for conveying and metering of fluids with low to medium viscosity. The application range goes from classic transfer and metering tasks in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries up to the conveyance of monomers, oligomers and prepolymers during the production of polymers. Decades of experience in construction and an optimum selection of materials, make this type of pump suitable for even the most demanding tasks and are outstanding in their reliability and metering precision in both vacuum and high pressure applications. Typical areas of application for this type of pump are to be found in the chemical, cosmetic, food, petrochemical and polymer industries.

The CHEM series is also suitable for the food industry, e.g. for conveying butter, margarine or vegetable oils. Pumps of this type can be supplied with or without heating. The WITTE modular construction system for bearings, gears and shaft seals offers a maximum of flexibility for the end customer.
