Model AIRSAUTRN

The World First AODD pumps made of fiberglass and available in big sizes 3" and 4". They are realised throughout a specific moulding process with RTM (Resin Transfer Molding) technique. So far the market lacked a solid and effective proposal for pneumatic pumps of large sizes made of non-metallic materials.
Some competitor offers 3" pumps made of thermoplastics with the physical and mechanical limits intrinsic to the nature of the thermoplastic resins and to overcome these limitations resort to the metal alloys.

Applications

AIRSATURN were recently asked for operating in mobile applications during civil emergencies and natural disasters. Their resistance to chemicals, mechanical and corrosion. Their operative performance is an unbeatable advantage especially for this type of dangerous application with the risk of explosion.

Main Advantages

The very first features to know about AIRSATURN AODD pumps are concerning their resistance (high-resistance to chemicals, mechanical strength, corrosion, abrasion and wear resistance, low and high temperatures resistance, fire resistance). To be considered is also the dimensional stability of the thermosetting resins that turn insoluble and infusible during catalysis.

SATURNevo (ZGS | ZMS | ZCS)

Integrally produced by ARGAL in its plant located in Italy, they are created by RTM injection moulding technology: parts are manufactured laying long-strand fiberglass mat in moulds before injecting the resin.
The use of fiberglass mat of different weight, texture orientation and numbers, reinforces the structure of the pump in the most mechanically solicited areas and at the same time offers high-quality surface finish and excellent chemical resistance of the wetted surfaces.

FRP SATURNevo pumps are available in three versions: ZGS (long-coupled), ZMS (close-coupled) and ZCS (compact close-coupled).

• Capacity: up to 1350 m3/h
• Construction: close or long coupled
• Motor powers: kW 3 ÷ 160
• Wetted parts: Fiberglass FRP
