Multi-Phase Product Pump

Young Industries Multi-Phase Product Pumps are compact, self-contained pneumatic conveying solutions for powders and granular materials typically found in the chemical, petrochemical, food, ceramic, glass, plastics, and paint industries. Their low-profile design makes them perfect for tight spaces, ideal for use under Bulk Bag Unloading equipment and Bag Dump Stations.

Install Product Pumps under bins, hoppers, and silos to efficiently convey your material to process equipment or day bins. Powered by compressed air, these systems deliver up to 6,000 lbs/hr over distances up to 300 feet.

Features

Best suited for pneumatically conveying powdered or granular materials at rates up to 6,000 lbs/hr and distances up to 300 feet
Product Pumps use plant compressed air or gas, and the convey systems operate at 20-40 PSIG
Various product inlet sizes and flange configurations are available.
Plain-end product outlets for schedule 10 and 40 pipe or OD tubing are standard. Flanges can also be provided.
Standard materials for construction include carbon steel, 304 S/S, 304L S/S, 316 S/S, and 316L S/S.
Operating temperatures up to 250° F are standard, with units capable of operating at higher temperatures can be offered.
Young Industries Product Pumps operate on an 80 PSIG, clean, dry compressed air, or gas supply.
All Product Pump housings are designed, built per ASME Code and National Board U or UM stamped for 150 PSIG.
A PLC controller housed in a NEMA 4 or 7/9 push button enclosure operates the product pumps.
Lower conveying velocities when compared to a dilute phase convey system minimizes degradation and abrasion.
Keys areas within the Product Pump Housings can be lined with our Transflow Fluidizing media for conveying fine, cohesive products.
Product Pump systems utilize 2” or 3” pipe or smooth bore flexible hose convey lines.
Standard air piping and controls supplied with Product pumps include pressure regulator, solenoid controlled on/off valves, factory assembled and piped for one field connection.
Electrical controls and enclosures are NEMA 4 or NEMA 7/9 and can operate on 24 VDC or 120 VAC.

Options

Flanged removable housing bolted heads or hinged housing heads with swing bolts can be provided.

The conical portion and parts of the cylindrical shell of Product Pump housing can be lined with our Transflow Fluidizing media for conveying fine, cohesive products.

Young Industries’ patented M/P Valve can be incorporated into the Product Pump Air Supply piping. The M/P Valve is a manually adjustable variable orifice flow control valve that allows you to control the air volume used to convey materials efficiently and gently without plugging or excessive velocity.

Product Pumps can be supplied with or without the electrical control panel.

Because sequencing is simple, control of the Product Pump can be incorporated into your control system in place of a separate controller. A timing sequence for the product pump would be provided.

The control panel can be customized to include additional equipment controls as needed.

The PLC controller can be supplied with ethernet connection for networking to an existing control system.

Flow meters, pressure switches and transmitters can be added to any Product Pump air or gas supply piping.

Bin Vent filters, Filter Receivers, or cyclone separators for receiving and cleaning conveying air can be provided.

Receiving bins can be provided.

Convey line pipe in 20’ lengths and convey line elbows and couplings as needed can be provided.

In-line check valves are available for vertical placement within the convey line when conveying longer distances to seal the downstream pressure prior to venting the Product Pump.

Convey line Diverter valves for service within Product Pump Systems.

Special paint colors can be provided on the exterior of carbon steel units.

Compressors for supplying the motive air for the Product Pump system can be provided.

Project Profile

Standard Operating Sequence

The Multi-Phase Product Pump operating cycle starts when the inlet butterfly valve opens to allow the product to gravity flow into the vessel. The valve closes, and the compressed gas starts conveying the product through the convey line. After the convey cycle, the Product Pump is vented, and the operation is repeated for transfer of product.
