Finish Thompson will introduce its new UCP Series ANSI-dimensional magnetic drive centrifugal pump at the National Association for Surface Finishing (NASF) Sur/Fin Expo.
The event will be held June 3-5 at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, IL. The UCP serves as a drop-in replacement for any manufacturer’s ANSI-dimensional pump, significantly reducing users’ cost of ownership.
The new UCP Series is ideal for a variety of surface finishing applications, including plating, anodizing, etching, and pickling. It features a ductile iron exterior with corrosion-resistant, non-metallic interior components to handle a wide variety of surface finishing chemicals. Powerful neodymium magnets drive the impeller through a glass-filled polypropylene barrier for dependable, leak-free operation with no environmental emissions, no power-robbing double mechanical seals, and no seal support systems.
Product experts will be available to discuss the new UCP Series, as well as a one-inch air-operated, double-diaphragm (AODD) pump from Finish Thompson’s FTI Air line, which delivers reliable performance with its stall-free, low-maintenance air valve and robust bolted construction for leak-free operation.
Filter Pump, a division of Finish Thompson, will also be heavily represented at the show, featuring:
- MF-7200 magnetic drive pump and chamber filter system
- Pumps from their Penguin Series P, featuring a 3C cartridge chamber with a transparent chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC) base
- C series filter chambers with CPVC construction
- Filter Pump’s Penductor, specifically for fluid sparging applications in the process and metal finishing industries
The MF-7200 magnetic drive pump and chamber filter system is recommended for plating solutions, pharmaceuticals, and acid and alkaline solutions up to 180ºF. With an all-plastic construction, the MF-7200 features the Penguin Series M or Series MTD Series magnetic drive pump and a CPVC, PVDF, or polypropylene filter chamber. Offering high volume and high-pressure operation, the pump is corrosion-resistant, with a maximum flow rate of up to 220 gallons per minute.
Filter Pump’s Penguin Series P vertical pumps are designed for reliable handling of corrosive, slurry, and abrasive solutions. Available in CPVC, polypropylene, or PVDF, the Series P pumps offer excellent chemical resistance and withstand temperatures up to 180°F, 150°F, and 280°F, respectively. The sealless, bearing-free design ensures low maintenance and long-lasting performance, making them a dependable choice for demanding chemical processing applications.
The C series filter chambers are designed for the efficient removal of inorganic particulates from both acidic and alkaline solutions, making them ideal for surface finishing and metal plating applications. Made from corrosion-resistant CPVC, it offers durability and compatibility with harsh chemicals.
Filter Pump's Penductor is a compact, efficient eductor designed for fluid sparging in process and metal finishing industries. Designed to be efficient and space-saving, the Penductor features a low profile and larger connection sizes to make it easier to install and retrofit.
