FLUX FBM 4000 Ex – first brushless barrel pump motor worldwide

Brushless; explosion-proof to ATEX, ease of control - these are the salient features of the the new motor Type FBM 4000 Ex introduced by FLUX-GERÄTE GMBH, D-75433 Maulbronn, the innovators of flow technology.

FLUX Barrel and Container Pumps are used in almost every sector of the processing and manufacturing industries. Initially designed for decanting and transfer operations of differing liquids from barrels and containers, current production time scales are now requiring these pumps to be used on applications with extended run times and frequent stopping and starting.

These more arduous uses are exactly the applications the world-first brushless motor Type FBM 4000 Ex has been designed for. Either for continuous or intermittent use, or even precise dispensing operations: the new brushless motor is ideally suited. The design brief called for a technically innovative motor that should not only have a lightweight and compact design, but also have a robust construction and comply with current and predicted international standards.

The 600 Watt brushless motor, incorporated in a double-shell aluminium housing features a very low noise level, electronic monitoring of speed, voltage and temperature. A progressive, ergonomic design with a weight of 6,2 kg only provides ease of use for the operator.
