Non-metallic bolted pumps by Versa-Matic offer efficient and reliable performance

York Fluid Controls carries the Versa-Matic U2 series.

Versa-Matic is one of the premier international manufacturers of air-operated double-diaphragm pumps, or AODD pumps, and it continues to redefine the standard of performance in these products. Available in Canada from York Fluid Controls Ltd., Versa-Matic pumps come in many varieties. One innovative example: the U2 series of two-inch non-metallic bolted pumps.

Each of these Versa-Matic pumps offers a non-stalling, high-efficiency air-valve system, with leak-free bolted construction and metallic centre sections.

High total cost of ownership

The Ultra-Matic U2 two-inch series of non-metallic bolted pumps is designed to offer efficient and reliable pumping in virtually any application, ranging from food processing to any task that requires pumping of solids. Also available in a clamped configuration, these pumps have wear-reducing components and chemical-resistant material that help to lower the total cost of ownership.

Among the many advantages of the U2 series: it ensures air-valve efficiency while eliminating blow-by; it features self-lubricating components; it offers smooth, linear air flow, as well as higher flow rates; and it enables easy maintenance with no need for special training or tools.

Each of these pumps from York Fluid Controls has a flow rate that is adjustable up to 727 litres per minute. It also has a port size of two inches ANSI/DIN #50 flange for both suction and discharge, with an air inlet of ½ an inch NPT and an air exhaust of ¾ of an inch NPT. The dry suction lift equals 6.1 metres for rubber and 3.05 metres for PTFE; the pump can handle a maximum solid size of six millimetres in diameter; and it has a shipping weight of 30 kilograms in polypropylene or 42 kilograms in PVDF.

Versa-Matic also produces other styles of the Ultra-Matic U2 two-inch series, with different materials or for varying functions. Businesses can select from clamped or bolted metallic pumps, as well as bolted aluminum pumps, flap valve pumps, and food-processing pumps.

The manufacturer makes AODD pumps for various other industries and applications, including units for general manufacturing, paints and coatings, chemicals, mining, oil and gas, and the marine sector.
