The Printed Circuit Board (PCB) serves as the base for the fledging Electronic Industry.

       These industries have variety of challenging, demanding and corrosive pumping applications.

       Major Applications in the PCB industry include Etching, Product Line Pre-treatment and Product Line Washing. These applications use Glycol Ethers and Toxic Chemicals that include Formaldehyde, dimethylformamide along with other toxic chemicals which have high concentration of copper, lead, nickel, chromium, and tin

       For Such demanding applications filled with carcinogens and toxic chemicals it is very important to manage the effluents and the hazardous waste generated in the process.

       Although robust in design and functioning, the traditional mechanically sealed centrifugal pumps might not offer the best solution since the chemicals handled expose the workers to very hazardous chemicals which may result in long term health deterioration.

       Moreover, most of the PCB manufacturing companies are now moving towards a more eco-friendly and environmentally sustainable production of Printed Circuit boards and they need to comply to the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) directive & Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) directive adopted globally by the PCB manufacturers.

       Understanding these needs of the company, our Team at HIS suggested our vertical immiscible Seal less Pump to one of the major PCB manufacturers and we managed to tackle the following issues pertaining to this specific industry.

• The Pump offered is vertical and hence we managed to arrest the issue pertaining to the large footprint of the pump as compared to the traditional horizontal end suction pump
• The pump offered is seal less in nature which solves the complex challenge of handling and managing the hazardous chemicals in this industry. Moreover there is Zero Leakage from Mechanical Seals resulting in compliance of our client to RoHS & REACH compliance.
• The Pump doesn’t have any coupling or bearing and thus resulting in energy saving and frequent maintenance of the pump resulting in reduction in overall lifecycle cost of the pump.
• Our vertical seal less pumps have flexibility in installation as well and they can be mounted in tank as well as outside tank as per the nature of space availability and the application demand.

It is also having application in gas scrubbers, as the chemicals involved in it damages mechanical seal frequently.
