Handling Aggressive Chemicals? Most Pumps Won’t Last.
When a customer needed to transfer mixed chemical solutions - including paint stripper & Alodine - from a 5,200L holding tank…

The challenge was clear:
❌ Standard pumps = seal failures
❌ Chemical attack = leaks & downtime
❌ Inground-tank install with negative pump suction = priming issues
❌ No automation = risk of dry run

We Delivered a Smarter, Safer Solution
Instead of forcing a conventional pump into a harsh application…
We engineered a system designed specifically for it:
🔹 Magnetic Drive Self-Priming Pump
– Seal-less design → ZERO leakage risk
– Polypropylene construction → excellent chemical resistance
– Self-priming → perfect for above-tank installations
🔹 Automatic Level Control
– Chemically compatible float switch
– Hands-free operation
– Protects against dry running
🔹 Optimised for the Application
– 2m vertical lift + 4m discharge handled with ease
– Built for mixed & unpredictable chemical compositions

The Result?
✔️ Safer chemical handling
✔️ Reduced maintenance
✔️ No seal failures
✔️ Reliable, automated operation

The Takeaway
If you're still using conventional sealed pumps for aggressive chemicals… you're taking a risk.
There’s a better way.

Effective oil–water separation is critical for protecting the environment and ensuring compliant discharge. The VGS Vertical Oil–Water Separator System is designed to efficiently separate oil from water in applications where environmental protection and compliance are critical.

System Overview
• VGS Vertical Oil–Water Separator
• Rated capacity: up to 3000 L/hour
• 240V ASM DS38-50 mechanical diaphragm pump
• 10 metre float switch (to be wired into the pump motor by installer)
• Galvanised steel hood pump cover for diaphragm pumps
This compact and dependable system is ideal for sites requiring effective oil separation and controlled discharge.

Why the Galvanised Steel Hood Matters
The galvanised steel hood provides an important layer of protection for the diaphragm pump. It helps:
• Shield the pump from weather exposure such as rain, sun, and debris
• Extend pump life by reducing corrosion and environmental wear
• Provide added safety by covering moving components
• Maintain reliable operation in outdoor or harsh industrial environments
By protecting critical equipment while maintaining accessibility for servicing, the hood ensures the system continues operating efficiently with minimal maintenance interruptions.

At General Pump Company, we focus on delivering practical, engineered solutions that combine performance, durability, and reliability to real-world applications.
