01 / Describe the product
Liquid name and composition; viscosity with measurement temperature; density; Brix; solids or crystals; foaming, oxidation and air-contact limits.
Pneumatic pump systems
System selection guide
A precise brief leads to a better proposal. Use these six groups of information to start the engineering conversation.
Your technical inquiry checklist.
02 / Define the production duty
Average and peak flow; batch volume; operating hours; upstream feed pattern; permitted discharge interruptions and standby expectations.
03 / Map the transfer route
Source and receiver levels; total pipe length; internal diameter; elevation; bends, valves and restrictions; receiver pressure and venting.
04 / Confirm utilities
Sustained compressed-air capacity and pressure at the point of use; air quality; electrical supply; available heating and cleaning utilities.
05 / Agree construction & controls
Wetted materials; surface finish; cleaning method; insulation; vessel arrangement; DCS interface; hazardous-area requirements if any.
06 / Set the delivery scope
Site country, documentation requirements, factory testing, installation responsibilities, acceptance plan and target project schedule.
Take the checklist to your engineering team.
