PFT108 descaling pumps
Small descaling unit consisting of a vertically mounted PP chemical pump (AS20
model) and a 108 liters polyethylene tank. With no metal parts in direct contact
with liquids, this cleaning device facilitates descaling processes and the removal
of limescale deposits. At the end of the cleaning procedure, its internal strainer
element retains debris and residues to protect the descaling pump. With a
maximum flow-rate of 4 m³/h and a maximum head of 6 m w.c., the PFT108
descaler is ideal for chemical cleaning in small-medium industrial applications.

Corrosion resistant plastic material
Selecting the most suitable chemically-inert polymers is one of the main skills of Savino Barbera. Our choices are always based on the chemical compatibility with acids and focused on the specific use that our products are intended for. In our PFT descalers, all wetted parts are strictly made of corrosion resistant plastic material and include:
PP (polypropylene)
Polypropylene has got good mechanical features and great resistance to the corrosive chemicals. It is not suitable for highly oxidizing and halogen concentrated acids (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine). Maximum working temperature: 90° C.
PVC (polyvinyl chloride)
Plastic material widely used for civil and industrial plants. Resistance to acids, bases, saline solutions and organic compounds. Not suitable for aromatic and chlorinated hydrocarbons. Maximum working temperature: 45° C.
PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride)
Great resistance to acids; saline solutions; aliphatic, aromatic and chlorinated hydrocarbons; alcohols and halogens. Not suitable for organic bases, alkaline solutions, ketones… Maximum working temperature: 100° C.
PE (polyethylene)
Polyethylene is the most simple among synthetic polymers and is the most common among plastics. It is very versatile and has perfect chemical stability. That is why it is used as manufacturing material for PFT tanks.
Tailor-made descaling units
PFT descaling pumps are available in 4 models to suit the most common industrial applications. Basically,
these standard scale removers incorporate chemical pumps, plastic tanks, hoses and filters. In addition, Savino Barbera can customize the descaling units by combining corrosion-resistant thermoplastic pumps with appropriate tanks. Furthermore, PFT can come with optional solutions such as:
- Electrical control panels.
- Double containment tanks.
- Trolleys (mobile versions).
- Non-standard tanks (up to 1000 liters).
Flanged connections.

Trolley-mounted mobile version.
Level controls.
