Hand Siphon Pumps

Hand pumps are essential tools for safely transferring chemicals from drums, pails, or process tanks, especially in metal finishing and other industrial applications. These pumps provide a reliable and cost-effective way to move liquids without the need for powered equipment, making them ideal for small-scale operations or situations where electricity or compressed air is not available. Choosing the right hand pump requires careful consideration of chemical compatibility, solution temperature, and the distance the chemicals need to be pumped.

When selecting a hand pump, consider the following factors to ensure compatibility with your process:

  • Chemical Compatibility: Ensure the pump materials are compatible with the chemicals being transferred.
  • Viscosity and Temperature: Select a pump that can handle the viscosity and temperature of the chemicals you are working with.
  • Pumping Distance: Determine how far the solution needs to travel and choose a pump with the appropriate flow rate.
  • Container Size: Specify the size of the container from which the chemicals are being pumped.
  • Pump Style: Choose between heavy-duty, standard-duty, and squeeze bulb pumps based on your specific needs and environment.
