Albin Pump ALH Pump is easy to use and maintain. If there is a need to lower costs, and a need to reduce downtime the ALH pump is a great solution.
Two shoes mounted at 180° on a rotating wheel compress a reinforced rubber hose that contains a fluid to be pumped. The compression of the hose by the rotating shoes creates continuous suction at the inlet of the pump and pushes the fluid to the outlet of the pump. The pump casing contains a lubricant that reduces friction and ensures the best pump performance with minimum maintenance. The pumped liquid is in contact with only the interior of the rubber hose, thus permitting the pumping of a wide variety of reactive fluids.
