Company profile
Argal srl has forty years of activity in the invention and production of pumps made from thermoplastic materials, compounds, and corrosion-resistant metal alloys, giving its pump business a long operating history across chemically demanding applications. During the past decade, the company directed significant effort to research and development across its production, resulting in pump ranges that were either entirely new or substantially renovated. Argal srl states a mission of continuous technological improvement through innovation rather than emulation, linking that direction to technical performance and responses to changing market requirements. Its industrial pump portfolio is available in different constructions for applications requiring temperatures from -40°c to +120°c, load capacities up to 1700 m 3 /h, and head over 100 m. The company describes itself as one of the European producers of AODD pumps and states that it was the first in the world to offer fiberglass (FRP) AODD pumps for seawater applications and corrosive liquids. Argal srl created the ARGALAIR division in 2016 to develop its AODD pumps with new technological innovations, adding a dedicated organizational focus to the diaphragm-pump business. Its broader pump activity also includes horizontal, sump, and self-priming centrifugal pumps in thermoplastic materials, together with a fiberglass Saturn Evo range developed for corrosive liquids and seawater. The company also reports a strategic partnership with Lutz Group through the Lutz-Jesco Italia S.r.l. subsidiary, adding that relationship to its industrial pump and chemical-handling activities in Italy.
Exhibits
QUANTUM-S (DQS) is identified as the next-generation AODD pump for semiconductor applications and is made from solid-block Ultra-Pure PTFE in 1” and 1 1/4” sizes. For abrasive and corrosive chemicals, Argal srl offers air-operated double diaphragm pumps, air-operated dosing pumps, and large pumps that can operate in ATEX explosive atmospheres, with non-stall, submersible, running-dry, easy-use, and easy-maintenance characteristics stated for the line. ASTRAsolid (DDS) is made from PE1000 solid block, is offered from 1/2" to 2", carries Ex-proof (ATEX) positioning, and is intended for abrasive and corrosive applications. ASTRAevo (DDE) covers sizes from 1/4" to 2" and material options PP+g, PVDF+c, Alu, and AISI 316L for broad industrial applications. QUANTUM (DDQ) is offered in 1/2", 1", and 1 1/2" sizes in pure PTFE for water treatment and chemical processes, while MISTRAL (DDM) is offered in 3" and 4" sizes using AISI 316 L and UHMW-PE for offshore platforms and chemical processes. ASTRAevo FOOD is available from 1/2" to 2" in AISI 316L for food, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical applications, and accessories are also offered for the AODD series. ARGALined consists of sealless pumps with ETFE and PP lining, including close- or long-coupled magnetic-drive pumps made from ductile cast iron with ETFE lining. SATURNevo (ZGS | ZMS | ZCS) is a close- or long-coupled fiberglass FRP pump range reinforced with special resins selected according to the pumped liquid, with capacity up to 1350 m3/h and ANSI/ASME positioning. ROUTE (TMR | ZMR) auxiliary pumps use magnetic drive or mechanical seals, are made from PP and ETFE, carry ATEX positioning, and are listed up to 50m3/h. SATURNsump (KGS) is a fiberglass FRP sump-pump line listed up to 900 m3/h, while K2 (KGK) vertical pumps use PP and PVDF for solid-laden or moderately abrasive liquids and are listed up to 275 m3/h. The pump portfolio therefore spans semiconductor AODD service, abrasive and corrosive chemical handling, water treatment, chemical processes, offshore use, food, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, seawater, sump service, and solid-laden liquid handling using multiple thermoplastic, metal, PTFE, and FRP constructions.
