Industrial pumps in pharmaceutical plant applications are often used for waste streams, runoff, or tank car unloading. Pumps in these environments may encounter acids, slurries, sludge, or oil handling, with or without trash present, and need to be compatible with these demands. Pitbull Pumps have a unique design that allows one pump to tackle all these problems with an innovative approach: a pneumatic displacement pump with no seals, shafts, or diaphragm. Full pipe passages allow trash, slurries, and sludge to flow through without clogging.
