Jessberger Drum Pump Set ATEX JP-480 for flammable media

Drum Pump Set with an electric motor for flammable liquids and for use in potentially explosive environments. 

The JP-480 ATEX Drum pump set is a preassembled drum pump set for 200L drums (immersion length 1000 mm) or IBCs (immersion length 1200 mm). The JP-480 drum and IBC pump is suitable for flammable liquids and for use in potentially explosive environments. 

This pre-assembled drum pump set is a complete plug-and-play kit where everything you need to get started is included in the package. Simply unpack, install and turn the power on and you are ready to use your new electrical drum pump.

The drive JP-480 is a compactly built, robust explosion-proof universal motor that is built and approved in accordance with the latest explosion protection guidelines (ATEX 2014/34/EC) and IECEx. The collector motor is explosion-proof according to II 2G Ex db IIC T6 Gb and has an EC-type examination certificate Bureau Veritas 17 ATEX 1 088 X and IECEx EPS 17.0045 X. 

The electric motor Ex-JP-480 offers in addition to the air operated motors maximum protection when pumping flammable media or for use in hazardous environments. At such applications separate authorizations for the drive motor and the pump tube acc. directives ATEX 2014/34/EC are required.

With a low weight of only 6,5 kg., this handy motor can be used as a drive for the ATEX certified sealless pump tubes made of stainless steel (Ø 41 mm), the mixing pump tubes in stainless steel, the pump tubes in stainless steel with mechanical seal or complete drum emptying function and the eccentric screw pump tubes series JP-700 SR PTFE ATEX. In this combination the drive is suitable for many thin liquid to viscous, neutral, slightly aggressive and easily flammable media with a flash point below 55°C. Its sophisticated, technically clear structure ensures an efficient and safe use when transferring the wide range of media.

The drum pump motor is characterized in addition to its robustness by its elegant design and ease of use. The non-stationary and stationary usable drive is particularly suitable for intermittent operation. As externally ventilated motor it has an optimal air cooling, low noise and ensures high operational safety and long lifetime.

The standard in the on/off switch integrated low voltage release is intended to prevent an uncontrolled start of the drum pump motor after a power failure or voltage drop. Thus guarantees maximum safety.

The maximum density of the media is for the JP-480 universal motor 1,9, the maximum viscosity 1000 mPas.

The pump tube is made of stainless steel 316Ti. These tubes are used for all neutral, slightly aggressive liquids such as diluted acids, alkalies or detergents and thin fluid food. In addition the pump tubes provide a special safety for conveying or transferring flammable liquids of different hazard classes (up to temperature class 4) in the Ex-zone 0 and when pumping low-viscous neutral or slightly aggressive media in Ex-zones 1 and 2.

Drive shaft: Stainless steel 316Ti

Media temperature: max. 90°C 

Media: Acetone, alcohol, ammonia, gasoline, flammable solvents, caustic lye, nitrocellulose lacquers, perchlorethylene, phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid (up to 7.5% and over 90%), trichlorethylene, toluene.

In addition the stainless steel pump tubes are suitable for pumping thin fluid food such as fruit juices, milk, edible oils and for all media that are mentioned at aluminium tubes.

On the drum pump housing, an integrated low voltage release on/off switch is installed. This switch is intended to prevent an uncontrolled start of the drum pump motor after a power failure or voltage drop, which guarantees maximum safety. 

The Jessberger drum pumps operate on the principle of the axial-impeller pumps. The pump unit consists of a drive motor and pump. The motor drives the drive shaft via a coupling. At the end of the drive shaft, there is a propeller-like pump impeller (rotor). The rotor must be completely covered with the medium so that the pump can work. With the rotation, the medium is axially transferred to the outlet, i.e. parallel to the pump shaft.

Each of our drum pump sets consists of an electric drum pump motor, a pump tube suitable for the application, a two-meter media-proof dispensing hose, and a nozzle, which facilitates filling and transferring.
