Finish Thompson EFV-40 KIT EF PVDF Drum Pump and Motor Kit 40 Inch
Finish Thompson supplies the EFV-40 KIT as a EF drum and container pump with a 40 inch tube in PVDF. It is supplied as a complete kit, the pump tube together with its matched motor, ready to put to work. The PVDF version of the same kit takes the pump into oxidizers, bleach and strong acids that would attack a polypropylene tube, again supplied complete with its matched motor.
The point of a pump like this is that nobody has to lift a drum. These are sealless tube pumps, so there is no shaft seal to weep down the outside of the drum, and the bearings are lubricated by the fluid itself. Flushing after use is the single most useful habit, because a pump left full of product is a pump that seizes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can any motor be fitted to any pump tube?
No. The motor and tube are matched as a system, and the coupling, mounting and power rating all have to correspond.
Q: Does the pump tube length need to match the container?
Yes. The tube should reach close to the bottom of the drum or tote without bottoming out, which is what the length in the model number refers to.
Q: Can the pump be left standing in the drum between uses?
Only if the wetted materials suit the fluid for long contact. Otherwise it should be flushed and drained, since standing exposure is harder on a pump than pumping is.
Q: What happens if the pump is run dry?
The bearings are lubricated by the fluid being pumped, so dry running wears them quickly and can seize the shaft.
