We are the leading manufacturer and supplier of a huge variety of filter pumps manufactured & supplied from our base in Newcastle-under-Lyme.

Filter pumps are key components in a variety of industrial and commercial applications, designed to eliminate debris and impurities from fluids before they reach the pump's impeller. Here's a detailed look at their functionality, types, and applications:

Functionality:
Filter pumps work by integrating a filtration system within the pump housing. This system captures particles and impurities, ensuring that only clean fluid passes through to the pump mechanism. This not only protects the pump from damage but also enhances its efficiency and longevity.

Types of Filter Pumps:
1. Centrifugal Filter Pumps: These are the most common type, using a rotating impeller to move fluid through the pump. They are ideal for low-viscosity fluids and are widely used in water treatment and chemical processing.
2. Diaphragm Filter Pumps: These pumps use a diaphragm to create a vacuum, drawing fluid through the filter. They are suitable for handling viscous or abrasive fluids and are often used in wastewater treatment.
3. Peristaltic Filter Pumps: These pumps use a rotating roller to compress a flexible tube, pushing fluid through the filter. They are excellent for handling corrosive or sensitive fluids, making them popular in medical and laboratory settings.
4. Gear Filter Pumps: These pumps use meshing gears to move fluid through the filter. They are robust and can handle high-viscosity fluids, often used in oil and fuel transfer.
