Maintenance-free pumps for powder coating spray tunnels
When designing a powder coating plant, one of the most critical decisions is selecting the right pump for your spray tunnel. Generally, you have two options: horizontal or vertical pumps. While both types can get the job done, making the optimal choice can significantly improve your plant’s efficiency and reduce downtime. Based on our extensive experience, we strongly recommend vertical immersion pumps for powder coating spray tunnels. Here’s why.
Why vertical pumps are the better choice for powder coating spray tunnels
Although horizontal pumps are often used, they come with certain disadvantages, such as wear and leakage, which can lead to unplanned downtime. These issues can interrupt production, requiring emergency pump repairs before resuming the coating process.
Vertical pumps, however, offer a more reliable, robust, and maintenance-free solution that helps prevent unexpected stoppages. Vertical pumps don’t have wear parts, seals, or bearings, eliminating common points of failure that often plague horizontal pumps. The cantilever design, featuring a fully balanced one-piece motor shaft, ensures maximum motor bearing life. The oversized bearings are built for long-term durability, allowing the pump to run for years with minimal maintenance.
Additionally, vertical pumps are installed directly from the top of the tank, preventing floor spills and eliminating the need for additional suction pipework and valves. This not only makes installation more cost-effective but also saves space compared to horizontal pumps, which are usually placed externally beside the tank.
