- The fluid pump:Resistant to moist, dirty, liquid droplets and explosive gases.
Choose a dry pump or a water-free foot pump?
If the gas is clean, dry, running continuously and electricity is expensive, the dry pump usually saves the cost of the life cycle. If the gas is much steam, solvent steam, dust or has liquid droplets, the dry pump needs protection vessel and complex heating, whileThe Kenflo water pump.withstand this condition with a simple structure. See the detailed comparison in the article on liquid ring pumps, hammer wings and screws.
