douglasmcelroy1@yahoo.com Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 One of the items that I have had some difficulty locating is a source for portable beverage grade explosion proof pumps. Do any of my esteemed colleagues have any suggestions? Thanks. Doug McElroy Thumb Knuckle Distillery (Still in formation) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherman Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Northern tool sells a nice polypropylene and PTFE, both non leaching and ethanol tolerant materials, in several different sizes. These pumps operate using air and have no electric parts. Here is a link to a 15 GPM one like would be used to supply a bottling line or transfer for blending and storage. http://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_200455917_200455917 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salishseaorganicliqueurs Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Nether Industries out of Enumclaw, Washington makes a great 25 GPM explosion proof spirit pump that is perfect for work with both mash and spirits. If you want to send me a private message and I'll forward you the quote I got from them for the whole set up. It's a bit on the expensive side but well worth the money. http://netherind.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mendodistilling Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 carlsen and associates in healdsburg, ca. sells all kinds of pumps, like above, some are air diaphragm pumps by yamada. You'll need the right diaphragm material to handle high % alcohols. ask about 95% abv if you are going that route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
