Product Introduction

The ZX Chemical Process Centrifugal Self-Priming Pump is a high-performance, corrosion-resistant pump engineered for industrial and chemical fluid transfer applications. Combining centrifugal pumping technology with self-priming capability, this pump provides reliable, leak-free, and continuous fluid transfer, even under challenging suction conditions or intermittent operation.

Designed with chemical-resistant materials, such as stainless steel, fluoropolymer linings, and high-alloy metals, the ZX pump ensures durability and safety in handling aggressive acids, alkalis, solvents, and industrial chemicals. Its robust centrifugal design enables high flow rates and efficient energy use, making it suitable for chemical processing plants, wastewater treatment, pharmaceutical facilities, and food and beverage industries.

The pump’s self-priming mechanism eliminates the need for auxiliary priming devices, reducing installation complexity and operational downtime. Optional magnetic drive configurations, VFD compatibility, and automation-ready features enable precise control, energy efficiency, and integration into modern PLC or SCADA systems.

The ZX Chemical Process Centrifugal Self-Priming Pump guarantees quality, reliability, and compliance with international safety regulations.
