The Use of Pellets in This Industry
One of the essential components for constructing various pumps is the pellets. These small, spherical-shaped pieces, made of glass or plastic, play a crucial role in pump operation. The sensitivity of these pellets is such that even a slight variation in weight or size can significantly disrupt the pump’s performance. Therefore, thorough testing and evaluation of all pellets are conducted before they are utilized.
These pellets are utilized to increase pumping speed, prevent air from re-entering the product chamber, and control the product discharge within the pump. The quality of the pellets used in the pump directly impacts the pump’s lifespan. Thus, the use of high-quality glass pellets is preferred, despite their higher cost compared to plastic pellets.
Over time, plastic pellets may lose their perfectly spherical shape due to continuous pressure, leading to interference with the pump’s functionality. Moreover, certain sensitive products may react with the plastic material of these pellets, resulting in degradation and decreased efficiency.
To ensure the necessary quality and preserve the pump’s performance and efficiency, Beh pump employ glass pellets for both thin-film and thick-film applications. This choice not only maintains the required quality standards but also safeguards the functionality and effectiveness of the pump.
