 Principle of OperationUsing in-tank filtration, the pump body and filter cartridge are totally immersed in the solution to be filtered. Solution is drawn by vacuum through the filter cartridge, travels a short distance, and is immediately expelled at a high flow rate from the pump discharge port. This creates a "free" source of agitation that is clean and beneficial for electroplating and other metal-finishing processes. And since solution never leaves the tank, leaks and spills are eliminated. All Flo King systems feature a Teflon-coated stainless-steel shaft so that no metal parts are in direct contact with solution. Installation  There are numerous
ways to use the Flo King in-tank system. The most popular and simplest configuration is
shown here. Just mount the pump in the corner of the tank, point the discharge port down
at a slight angle toward the long tank wall, and filter away!The "counterflow" agitation motion promotes uniform temperature and chemical composition, while keeping particles suspended for quick-capture filtration. Remember, filtration is only half the battle in removing particulates. Agitation is the other half. Without effective solution movement, many particles may descend to the tank bottom, escaping entrapment by the filter media . The adjustable Universal Bracket enables easy mounting of the Flo King unit on most tank lips or flanges. Filter changes are easily accomplished by leaning the pump back or removing the pump from the tank and hand-loosening three thumbscrews. Or use our patented accessory--the Slide-In Filter Cartridge Adapter (SIFCA)--to change filters without moving the pump. |
