NONMETALLIC TANK/PUMP SYSTEMS
For Collection, Transfer or Treatment of Corrosive Process and Waste Liquids
 STANDARD OR CUSTOMIZED SYSTEMS
STATIONARY OR MOBILE MODELS
TANKS FROM 60 TO 5,000 GALLONS
Duplex pump/tank system with two Sump-Gard®
vertical pumps, rising rod float controls,
instrumentation, and control panel.
Mobile tank/pump system with self-priming
Flex-i-liner® rotary pump for collecting corrosive
wastes from multiple sites.
|
These user friendly tank/pump systems with single or
double wall tank construction, and with all fluid contact components
made of chemically inert nonmetallic materials, are recommended for
chemical processing, plating, metal finishing, waste treatment,
pollution control or other services which require the collection,
transfer, neutralization or treatment of corrosive, abrasive, hazardous
or ultrapure fluids. Vanton manually operated or completely automated systems are available in
square, rectangular or cylindrical configuration, in standard or customized
design and in your choice of thermoplastic, thermoset or plastic-lined metal
tanks. They can be equipped with horizontal centrifugal, vertical sump or
rotary peristaltic thermoplastic pumps made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC),
chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC), polypropylene (PP) polyvinylidene
fluoride (PVDF) or ethylene chloro-trifluoroethylene (ECTFE). The systems
can be furnished with associated piping and instrumentation made of these or
other engineered plastics inert to the fluids being handled. |
Self-contained, nonmetallic
automated pH neutralization systems
To help municipalities and industrial plants respond to government
regulations which require that acids, alkalis, salts and contaminated waste
fluids be neutralized before discharge into public waters, Vanton has
developed these self-contained nonmetallic neutralization systems that
automatically monitor the pH and control the chemical additions required for
neutralizing the effluents. All components, including the sump and metering
pumps, the tank, valves, piping and controls in contact with the fluids are
made of chemically inert plastics. The typical system shown here requires
only electrical and piping hook-up to be fully operable.
TYPICAL TANK/PUMP SYSTEMS
 |
|
 |
Pump and tank cover elevated to show mercury switch level control for use
with shallow tanks |
|
Pontoon supported air driven vertical centrifugal pump for draining
settling lagoons or for oil skimming. |
 |
|
 |
Portable double-wall tank provides extra protection when handling hazardous
fluids. |
|
Cylindrical tank/pump system. Vanton vertical pumps utilize Fume-Gard™ vapor
seals to eliminate toxic, noxious or corrosive emissions. |
SPECIFICATIONS
- Standard or customized thermoplastic, thermoset or plastic lined metal
tanks to be supplied with single or multiple thermoplastic pumps and
designated instrumentation and controls.
- Plastic tank joints to be hot gas welded to provide continuous
leak-proof, easy to clean seams. The design should avoid recesses or
blind areas where chemicals might lodge and be difficult to flush. Elastometric sealing between tank cover and tank provides further insurance
against leakage and emissions.
- Pump casings and impellers in contact with the fluids to be handled must
be furnished in solid (not lined), virgin, homogeneous thermoplastics
selected for the indicated service conditions. Designs must assure that no
metal components will be in fluid contact. The steel shaft is to be isolated
from the liquid by a heavy sectioned thermoplastic sleeve.
- When packaged tank/pump systems are specified, they are to be user-ready,
requiring only electrical and piping hook-up to be completely operable.
- Double wall tanks to have built-in leak detection devices and sensors
when required, linked to visual and audible alarms.
- Automated systems, where required, to include liquid level controls,
visual and audible signal devices, analog and digital display flow meters,
flow totalizers, pH controllers and other instrumentation selected for the
indicated service conditions.
Note: Capacities are based on a full tank. For larger sizes contact the
factory. Specifications and dimensions subject to change.
Nonmetallic Pumps
SUMP-GARD®. Heavy-duty engineered vertical thermoplastic centrifugal sump
pumps in capacities to 1,450 gpm, temperatures to 275°F, heads to 245' and
depths to 50'. Available in Polypropylene, PVC, CPVC and PVDF in standard as well as
"bearingless" cantilevered designs. Unique vapor seal protects external
bearing and motor from corrosive fumes. No metal components in contact with
fluid.

standard and ANSI pumps in capacities to 1,450 gpm, heads to 400' and
temperatures to 275°F. Self-priming PRIME-GARD® and close-coupled models to
250 gpm. Available in Polypropylene, PVC, CPVC, PVDF and ECTFE. Unique sliding bar
design with retractable front-bearing accommodates all popular mechanical seals
and simplifies servicing.
Chem-Gard® CGM. Magnetically driven thermoplastic sealless ANSI centrifugal pumps
for flows to 600 gpm, heads to 280 feet, ratings to 75 hp, at temperatures to 275°F.
Available in Polypropylene and PVDF.
Flex-i-liner®. Sealless self-priming plastic pumps in capacities to 40 gpm,
discharge pressures to 45 psig, and temperatures to 250°F. Only two
components, the pump body and the flexible liner, contact the fluids. Pump bodies
available in Polyethylene, Polypropylene, Teflon and other nonmetallics.
Flexible liners are available in natural rubber, Buna N, Neoprene*, Butyl rubber, Hypalon*, Viton* and Nordel*.
