image 1 New AMX full plastic process pumps offer improved efficiency, greater simplicity and reduced maintenance for even the harshest of acidic and corrosive chemicalsThe highly durable and highly efficient magnetic drive range are now available in all polypropylene components.

Crest Pumps Group strive to make chemical pumping as smooth and as simple as possible avoiding costly maintenance and maintaining high efficiency throughout the pumps life span.

As a result of our constant Research and Development process, we are proud to introduce the all polypropylene AMX-GG range where the baseplate and bracket are now available in corrosion resistant polypropylene.

The reliability, high corrosion resistance and high efficiency has made the AMX-GG range one of the most widely used magnetic drive pumps in the UK – with clients including GlaxoSmithkline, AkzoNobel and Rolls Royce.

To keep your process streamlined, all polypropylene parts and complete pumps are available ex-stock and for next-day delivery. Both Full Polypropylene (AMX-GG) and original AMX magnetic drive pumps can be built to ATEX standards Zone 1 – 2 with a maximum temperature of 110c and an efficiency of up to 80%.

The AMX increases the mean time between maintenance and servicing with the pumps patented buffer system which absorbs vibrations and shock caused by adverse operating conditions.

To reduce your costs and achieve a longer pump lifespan, the AMX-GG external parts mean total corrosion resistance and therefore less maintenance parts are required over the pump’s life. Furthermore, you don’t have to spend any extra as the AMX-GG range is still at the same economical price of the original AMX.

 

Vanadis Power Case Study

New AMX full plastic process pumps offer improved efficiency, greater simplicity and reduced maintenance for even the harshest of acidic and corrosive chemicalsAs fuel cell renewable energy has tripled market share in the last 5 years, Vanadis Power in Germany are at the forefront of developing vanadium (fuel cell) into a renewable energy source that stores the kinetic energy from solar power.

Vanadis Power needed a set of 16 pumps that were able to pump from both the positive and negative electrolyte terminals into the membrane where the power is generated and stored into the back tank. A delicate process which requires a reliable and efficient pump for 24/7 recirculation.

Crest Pumps Group recommended and supplied the full polypropylene AMX 555-GG range for the ultimate corrosion resistance against this specialist application. The patented Run-Dry protection built into the AMX range ensures a leak-free design and a safe working environment which is particularly important when pumping highly valuable media such as Vanadium.
