Sulfuric Acid: Characteristics and Challenges

Sulfuric acid is one of the key chemicals in the industry but also one of the most challenging substances to handle. Its strong corrosiveness makes it a constant threat to many materials, while its exothermic reactions upon contact with water or other substances require careful process control. The varying viscosity and density depending on concentration present additional challenges for pumping technology, as do its reactive properties, which can release dangerous byproducts like sulfur dioxide if mishandled.

Pumping sulfuric acid, therefore, requires highly specialized solutions that not only ensure maximum safety but also enable efficient and precise pumping. Corrosion-resistant materials, absolute tightness, and robust construction are essential to prevent long-term damage to equipment and ensure the protection of employees.

Our pumps for pumping sulfuric acid

With our specially developed pumps for sulfuric acid, we offer you the optimal solution to overcome these challenges and ensure reliable operation of your processes.

Centrifugal Pump with Mechanical Seal

Our centrifugal pump with mechanical seal is the ideal solution for pumping sulfuric acid and other challenging media. Its robust construction and high-quality materials like PP or PVDF offer outstanding resistance to aggressive acids and alkalis, even under demanding process conditions.

With its closed radial impeller and diffuser, the pump achieves high efficiency and ensures efficient and reliable pumping performance. The carbide/carbide seal minimizes wear and ensures a long service life, even in continuous operation. An integrated dirt trap on the shaft increases operational safety by trapping contaminants before they can reach the pump’s sensitive components.

Gleitringgedichtete Kreiselpumpen

✔ High resistance to aggressive media (PP/PVDF)
✔ Self-priming up to 2 mWC
✔ Energy-efficient electric motor (IE3)
✔ Flow rates from 4,800 to 57,000 l/h
✔ Delivery head up to 41 m

Magnetic Drive Centrifugal Pump

Our magnetic drive centrifugal pumps are the perfect solution for pumping aggressive media like sulfuric acid, alkalis, and other chemicals. Thanks to their completely closed pump casing and magnetic drive, they are entirely leak-proof – a crucial advantage for the safety and efficiency of your processes. The drive power is transferred from the motor’s drive shaft to the ceramic bearing impeller via an encapsulated magnet. This design eliminates the need for a mechanical seal and minimizes the risk of failures or leaks, even with highly aggressive media.
Magnetkreiselpumpe

✔ Leak-proof due to magnetic drive
✔ Highly resistant materials (PP/PVDF)
✔ Over 70 models for various applications
✔ Flow rates from 700 to 43,000 l/h
✔ Delivery head up to 22 m
