Three Tube Pump
The Harbison-Fischer Three Tube Pump is
the traditional trash pump for efficient operation in extremely abrasive
or "dirty" production. The concept of this pump is to have
large clearances (.014") between the plunger and barrels, allowing
particulates and/or large quantities of particulates to pass between
the plunger and barrels without causing them to stick or hang up.
The Three Tube Pump has the advantages of both
a stationary barrel pump and a traveling barrel pump. It is rugged like
a stationary barrel pump but has the top valve of a traveling barrel
pump that closes when the pump is shut down, preventing particulates
from settling into the pump and keeping particulates from settling around
the pump's bottom hold-down. Excess slippage is prevented by the long
slippage path between the multiple tubes.
The Three Tube Pump is available with regular
or hardened barrels.
