The
Young Industries' Product Pump
Perhaps
an understated piece of equipment, The Young Industries' Product
Pump is an excellent tool for conveying powders short distances
with little maintenance or downtime. This space efficient unit can
be manufactured for food grade or pharmaceutical applications as
well.

The Multi Phase™ Product
Pump is a compact unit designed to convey powders, pellets and granules
10’ to 600’. In applications where a dust tight environment is required
and where traditional pneumatic conveying is not economically feasible,
this might be the answer. Using plant air or nitrogen, the Product
Pump can convey from 50-400 cubic feet per hour depending on the
bulk density of the product and other factors such as the length
of the convey run, how much air or nitrogen is available, etc. (see
below for sizing information). While this equipment is great for
chemicals, pigments and pellets, it is also available in a sanitary
design for food grade applications such as conveying powdered milk,
pharmaceutical bases, flavorings, preservatives, powdered sugar
and more. Coupled with a bag dump station, these units provide air
tight conveying of materials at a rate that you specify and can
be manufactured for compliance within an explosion proof environment.
Currently, several sizes and configurations are available further
adding to the unit’s flexibility in design and installation. Young
offers a horizontal pump (model PH), vertical pump (model PV) and
an inclined pump (model PI). For more information on the Product
Pump, please contact our office. To test the feasibility of a product
pump with your product, we welcome you to Young’s full scale lab
in Muncy, PA or you can rent a unit to test at your facility to
see if this technology will work for you. The following show the
three types of Product Pump configurations. Note their compact design—perfect
in any area where space is limited or in hazardous locations where
other equipment becomes impractical.
