MaxiPrime Stainless Steel Drum Emptying Systems

20 Sep 2023  |
MaxiPrime stainless steel pumping systems are specifically designed for transferring pastes & high viscosity products that do not flow from drums or process vessels.

The main difficulty with pastes and high-viscosity products that do not flow is that the pump cannot be primed and simply cavitates, pumping air instead of product!

The solution is to use a Kecol Maxiprime twin-cylinder pressure priming system in conjunction with a Kecol stubby-type stainless steel piston pump, maintaining a positive prime on the pump and thus ensuring that it does not cavitate. As the product level falls, the sides of the drum are wiped clean by the follower plate on the priming system.

The mobile version of the Maxiprime stainless steel pump enables the unit to be moved quickly and easily to wherever it is needed and is available in painted or stainless-steel construction.

Features & Benefits of the MaxiPrime Stainless Steel System:

  • Handles paste up to 10,000 poise viscosity ‘COLD’
  • Transfer products cleanly, quietly, and efficiently
  • Eliminates Product Waste
  • Simple and Safe Operation
  • Polished Stainless-Steel pumps or Painted Steel Construction pumps
  • Optional ‘Quick Strip’ Follower Plate Assembly

Kecol Pumping Systems manufactures Power Lift, Power Prime, Maxi Prime, and Mega Prime Stainless Steel systems to be used as transfer pumps for pastes and other high-viscosity materials that do not flow
