Find the right Pump

Working with chemicals is a dangerous profession but like every other job, familiarity takes away some workers’ caution. GoatThroat pumps are reliable and consistent in protecting handlers from accidental exposure. Your factory will be able to maintain the same chemical and material safety procedures that are maintained in large processes on a smaller scale with minimal extra training.

If you believe your company is working with chemicals that are not on the compatibility guide, get in contact with one of our experts. We are willing to figure out what your chemical needs to create a solution to fit your specific purposes.

Safe Chemical Storage and Dispensing

Whether you need to keep a chemical safe from outside exposure or outside elements safe from a chemical, GoatThroat Pumps can provide an adequate pump for corrosive liquids or food-grade chemicals. Our chemical pumps make use of a closed system to keep hazardous materials from causing adverse health effects to workers and damage to the facility. Closed systems are also excellent for isolating food-grade materials and maintaining purity.

Among the chemical pumps GoatThroat offers, a popular solution for chemical manufacturers is the SCP line. The durable and high-quality SCP line of GoatThroat pumps meets both National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 77 and NFPA 30 requirements. Some pumps are manufactured using food-grade materials and are completely safe for food contact.

Chemical Handling Pump Applications

  • Transfer chemicals to and from storage to portable containers
  • Controlled chemical mixing and dispersion
  • Controlled chemical application
  • Hazardous cleaning chemical storage and application
  • Product testing and ratio experimentation

Dispensing chemicals safely is a primary concern for many chemical warehouses. The fact that GoatThroat pumps do not rely on gravity to release liquid means that there is no worry that workers can become injured by trying to tip and pour a barrel.

These pumps can prevent spills and potentially eliminate the need to clean using heavy cleaning agents. GoatThroat pumps can help promote the overall wellness and safety of employees on a daily basis due to the fact that they don’t require tons of pressure or exertion to dispense liquids, meaning less time is spent having your employees worry about injuries caused by struggling to release liquid from a pump.

While employee safety is foremost, durable and reliable chemical pumps from GoatThroat also allow chemical manufacturers to perform product prototyping on the fly. GoatThroat pumps offer a controlled mixing solution that allows chemical researchers and chemists to quickly adjust ratios during application or dispersion. The speed increase in efficient prototype testing without sacrificing safety is sure to increase research productivity and output.

The safely sealed and closed system that prevents accidental spills and leaks is also more than a health-focused workplace improvement. Accurately dispensed and distributed chemicals cut back on chemical waste. This allows material that previously may have been in a spill to be used in production creating higher product yield and less chemical waste. With a reduced cost in cleaning supplies, cleaning time, chemical waste removal, chemical replacement, employee injury compensation, and increased product yield, your company will see an improvement in revenue and a slight decrease in cost.

Transfer Pumps for Corrosive Liquids

Not all chemicals the world needs are safe to handle. Corrosive materials can erode containers and pumps if they are made of the wrong materials. GoatThroat has put together a comprehensive chemical compatibility guide to find the right product material to match hazardous chemical needs.

As you are well aware, corrosive liquids can cause damage to more than just improper storage materials. Exposure to human skin or orifices can cause permanent and critical damage. This is why every aspect of chemical material handling should be created with function and safety at the forefront. GoatThroat does just that. Our pumps are manufactured with safety and specific purpose as the main focus. Our chemical-resistant pumps are what you need to safely handle corrosive materials manually.

With our portable chemical transfer pumps, your factory workers can apply corrosive liquids and transport them to needed locations with the assurance that GoatThroat pump seals will prevent chemical spills and dangerous material exposure. Our pumps will help you to prevent costly workplace accidents. Keep your employees happy and healthy while saving on operating costs.

The manual nature of GoatThroat pumps allows for creative and safe storage solutions for your large 55-gallon chemical drums. The pumps do not need electric power or to change the orientation of the chemical container. This allows for remote storage of chemical containers. Combined with our portable transfer pumps, chemicals can be stored away from active areas and still be easily accessed for frequent use.

Work with an expert from GoatThroat Pumps to get the right transfer pump materials for your corrosive liquids. We can make the process easy and efficient so you can focus on your company’s primary needs. Let GoatThroat handle providing your chemical hand pump needs.

Improving Chemical Process Safety

“When your products’ manufacturing processes involve mixing chemicals, your workers’ safety and EPA compliance are always at the forefront of the business,” said Brad Dagy owner of Ridgway Industries. Dagy's Pennsylvania based company manufactures cleaners and detergents for both home and industrial use. A few close calls with chemical spills made Dagy realize that a manufacturing process that involved tipping and taping heavy 55-gallon drums of chemicals, leaky spigots and transfer containers meant that injury and chemical disaster were always one slip-of-hand away. Spills threaten worker and environmental safety as much as they did the bottom line in costly liquid inventory waste and lost production time. Taking cues from the EPA?s information on Process Hazard Analysis, Dagy's safety manager searched the Internet, finding a cost-effective solution from Westcott Industries in their award-winning GT Multi-Pump Dispensing System. The System enabled Ridgway to dispense multiple chemicals at a rate of 4gpm from...

The High Cost of Exposing Workers to Chemicals at Point of Use

Every day industrial workers transfer potentially hazardous chemicals, such as solvents, acetones, lubricants, cleansers, and acids, from large drums into smaller containers, or into machinery. This transfer of chemicals at the point of use, however, can have serious consequences when manual ?tip-and-pour? techniques or poorly designed pumps are used. Whether the chemicals are toxic, corrosive, reactive, flammable, emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs), or are even potentially explosive, the danger of accidental contact, even for short periods, can pose a severe hazard to workers. In addition to the potential for injury, there can also be serious financial ramifications for the facility involved. The risks include cost to treat injuries or perform cleanup, as well as workers? compensation claims, potential liability, OSHA fines, loss of expensive chemicals and even facility/production shutdown. ?It can be catastrophic to a company if toxic or highly flammable material is accidentally released at the point of use,?...
