Typical Applications
Standards & Design Philosophy
Magnetic drive technology:
Klaus Union magnetic drive/magnetic coupling technology offers distinct long- and short-term advantages over conventional sealing system.
This technology does a way with a need for shaft to pass from liquid to non-liquid environments which means that glands and face seal can be dispensed with. The liquid is hermetically sealed in a leakproof, static isolation shell.
SEALLESS TECHNOLOGY
If pumps are used to handle dangerous products, it is essential to avoid even the smallest leakages into the environment in order to ensure the protection of both people and the atmosphere. The ideal solution for such a case is pumps with magnet drive. The first of its kind was introduced by Klaus Union in 1955.
Klaus Union Extensive Product Portfolio:
Klaus Union product portfolio comprises pumps and valves for virtually all industrial applications. In addition to steel and stainless steel, Klaus Union products integrate numerous corrosion-proof alloys based on Ni-Cr-Fe, Ni-Cr-Fe-Mo, nickel and titanium.
Klaus Union pumps and valves offer optimal safety and reliability, as well as a long service life, and reduce costs thanks to their maintenance friendliness for the following application scenarios: chemical and petrochemical industry; refrigeration and heat engineering; liquid gas plants; electroplating; power plants; and plant construction.
