3M's MS series of magnetically driven, seal-less pumps has been extended. The range now includes the CT MAG-MS, a peripheral multistage metallic mag-drive pump. CT MAG-MS pumps are suited to applications where liquids have a maximum viscosity up to 200cSt, maximum system pressure of 50bar (standard) and 150bar (for the high-pressure version), although higher pressure options are available on request. They can operate within a temperature range of -120 to 350C. Electric motors are available from 0.55 to 75kW. Available from Pump Engineering, the MS series will include six options - providing flows up to 24mc/h at heads up to 1000m. These pumps are suitable for applications involving aggressive, hard-to-handle fluids and offer the benefits of mag-drive pumping. 3M mag-drive pumps have applications including: transferring acids, alkalis, hydrocarbons, heat transfer oils, liquid gases, and toxic and explosive chemicals in industrial and chemical industries.
