Magnetically coupled pump from NETZSCH targets chemical and food processing

NETZSCH Pumps & Systems has introduced a magnetically coupled pump designed to eliminate leakage risks in industrial fluid handling applications.

According to NETZSCH, the NEMO MY Magnetically Coupled Pump uses a hermetically sealed design that removes the need for mechanical seals, a common source of leakage when failures occur. The system transmits torque through a magnetic coupling, creating a fully sealed pumping environment intended to improve operational safety and reliability.

The pump is designed for use in chemical, pharmaceutical, paint, and food processing industries, particularly where containment of aggressive, toxic, or abrasive materials is critical. By eliminating seal-related failure points, the design reduces the risk of product loss and environmental exposure.

NETZSCH states that the pump can handle a wide range of viscosities, from low-viscosity fluids to highly viscous and shear-sensitive materials. It delivers continuous, pressure-stable flow with low pulsation, supporting consistent process performance.

The NEMO MY pump is also engineered for slurry handling and can manage viscosities up to 20,000 centipoise. Its magnetic coupling system eliminates the need for sealing pressure adjustments and fluid level monitoring, reducing maintenance requirements.

The pump is compliant with ATEX standards, allowing it to operate in potentially explosive atmospheres. NETZSCH positions the new system as a solution for industries seeking improved containment, reduced maintenance, and reliable performance in demanding processing environments.
