| Spraying Applications |
| |
In today's manufacturing
environment, a wide variety of paint types,
colors, coatings and manufacturing methods
demand the utmost flexibility with spray painting
equipment. Due to advancements made in paint
booth technology, manufacturers can rapidly
change from one color to another. Separate
paint booths dedicated by color or batch spraying
can be eliminated.

| Industry Challenge |
| The application of spraying
paints and coatings requires smooth, accurate,
and pulseless flow to atomizers or spray nozzles.
Reciprocating pumps, such as diaphragm or
piston pumps, produce a flow that varies in
both pressure and volume. In order to reduce
material waste and improve product quality,
precise amounts of fluid must be accurately
metered to the application equipment. Color
changes must be made quickly and effectively
to prevent contamination and improve process
productivity. |
| The Zenith Solution |
| Positive displacement gear
pumps are becoming increasingly popular for
spray painting applications. Zenith pumps
provide superior performance for fluid metering,
effective flushing, and long service life. |
| Zenith pumps are precision
ground and lapped to provide high volumetric
efficiency and metering accuracy. The pump
design produces virtually pulse-free flow.
Special design features allow for quick and
thorough flushing of all internal parts. |
| Several material options are
available for different types of paints and
application conditions. Depending on the materials
used, pump wear can be significantly reduced
when pumping abrasive fluids. |
