What is the capacity and head range of the FLC pump?

The FLC Series handles flows up to 200 M³/hr and heads up to 100 MWC in standard configurations. It handles temperatures up to 200°C with or without abrasive slurries. Higher capacity is available on request.

What is the difference between PVDF, FEP, and PFA?

PVDF provides resistance to halogens, strong acids, and oxidising agents. FEP is a melt-processable PTFE equivalent for aggressive solvents, acids, and elevated temperature. PFA provides the highest fluoropolymer performance.

What is FEP in pump construction?

FEP stands for Fluorinated Ethylene Propylene. It is a melt-processable fluoropolymer with chemical resistance equivalent to PTFE and can be applied as a continuous lining on pump wet-end surfaces.

Why is FLC more cost-effective than Hastelloy pumps?

The FLC uses fluoropolymer lining on wet-end surfaces to achieve PTFE-equivalent chemical resistance at lower cost for compatible duties compared with Hastelloy, tantalum, or nickel alloy construction.

Can FLC handle abrasive slurries?

Yes. The FLC is rated for aggressive media with or without abrasive slurries up to 200°C. Confirm particle size, concentration, and temperature with Shubham Industries engineers.

What is the maximum temperature for FLC?

The FLC Series handles temperatures up to 200°C. Exact suitability depends on lining grade, chemical, concentration, and duty conditions.

What is the difference between FLC and HPP?

HPP uses solid polymer construction from PP, PVDF, or UHMWPE for lower temperature duties. FLC uses fluoropolymer lining for PTFE-equivalent resistance up to 200°C and up to 200 M³/hr.

Is FLC suitable for HF hydrofluoric acid?

FLC with PVDF or FEP lining can handle HF in many concentration and temperature combinations, but HF compatibility depends on concentration, temperature, and duty. Confirm details before ordering.

Where is the FLC pump manufactured?

The FLC Series is manufactured, assembled, and tested at the Shubham Industries production facility in Kuha, near Ahmedabad, Gujarat, India. Shubham Industries is an ISO 9001:2015 certified industrial pump manufacturer established in 1987.

Why Fluoropolymer

Why PVDF, FEP, and PFA Lining for the Most Aggressive Chemical Duties

PVDF, FEP, and PFA are fluoropolymer linings selected when chemical resistance must approach PTFE-equivalent performance. These linings protect pump wet parts from aggressive acids, halogens, toxic media, and elevated-temperature corrosive duty where stainless steel, rubber, or polypropylene may not be suitable.

PTFE-Equivalent at Lower Cost Than Exotic Alloys

FLC fluoropolymer lining achieves PTFE-equivalent resistance at a significantly lower purchase and replacement cost than Hastelloy, tantalum, or nickel alloy pump construction for compatible duties.

Three Lining Grades for Different Duty

PVDF is commonly specified for aggressive acid and halogen duty. FEP supports aggressive solvents and elevated temperature service. PFA provides the highest fluoropolymer performance.

With or Without Abrasive Slurries at 200°C

The FLC is rated for aggressive media with or without abrasive slurries up to 200°C, combining chemical resistance, abrasion tolerance, and temperature capability.

Applications

Where the FLC Series Fluoropolymer Lined Pump Is Used

The FLC Series is used where chemicals are too aggressive for stainless steel, polypropylene, or rubber and where exotic alloy pump construction is not practical. It is selected for aggressive acid, halogen, toxic, and elevated-temperature chemical duties.

Strong and Concentrated Acids

Highly concentrated acids including HF, HCl, fuming sulphuric acid, fuming nitric acid, and mixed acids. Confirm concentration, temperature, and lining grade.

Halogens and Oxidising Agents

Fluorine-bearing chemicals, chlorinated solvents, bromine compounds, strongly oxidising acids, and agents where PVDF/FEP/PFA compatibility is confirmed.

Toxic and Hazardous Process Chemicals

Toxic chemicals requiring a PTFE-equivalent barrier in specialty chemical, pharmaceutical, and petrochemical service.

Corrosive Media at Elevated Temperature

Hot corrosive solutions and high-temperature process chemicals up to 200°C, beyond the service temperature of rubber and many standard polymers.

Aggressive Media with Abrasive Slurry

Corrosive and abrasive combined duty where suspended particles and chemical attack occur together at elevated temperature.

Cost-Effective vs Exotic Alloy Applications

Duties previously specified with Hastelloy, tantalum, or nickel alloy construction where fluoropolymer compatibility is confirmed.

When FLC May Not Be the Right Choice

Not all chemicals are within fluoropolymer compatibility; PVDF, FEP, and PFA each have specific limits. For acids and chemicals within rubber compatibility at smaller flow, specify RLC. For solid polymer construction at lower temperature, specify HPP. For hygienic food/pharma GMP duty, specify SCS. Always confirm chemical name, concentration, and temperature before ordering.

Selection Guide

FLC Fluoropolymer Lined Pump vs Other Shubham Pump Series

The FLC is correct when PTFE-equivalent fluoropolymer lining is required for aggressive chemical duty, elevated temperature, or chemicals beyond rubber and many metallic material limits.

FLC vs RLC - Fluoropolymer vs Rubber Lined

RLC uses rubber lining on cast iron for abrasive acid slurry duty at 10-40 M³/hr and up to 20 m head. FLC uses PTFE-equivalent fluoropolymer for the most aggressive media at 200°C, up to 200 M³/hr, and 100 MWC.

View RLC Series

FLC vs HPP - Fluoropolymer Lined vs Solid Polymer

HPP uses solid injection-molded PP, PVDF, or UHMWPE construction for lower temperature duty. Choose FLC for higher temperature, higher aggression, or PTFE-level resistance.

View HPP Series

FLC vs Hastelloy / Tantalum / Nickel

FLC fluoropolymer lining provides chemical resistance equivalent to PTFE for compatible chemicals at a lower cost than exotic alloy construction.
