The gamma/ X by ProMinent: excellent protection to IP 66 level

Protection for equipment – and for investments

Often, metering pumps work in environments which are anything but clinically clean. But even in adverse environments, foreign bodies, dust, water and contact must not negatively impact on reliable operation. To protect your investment in a high-quality pump, we provide IP degrees of protection as well as the US standard NEMA. These indicate how resistant a device is to water and dust, offering operators to choose the right electrical equipment for a particular environment.

Upgrade from IP 65 to IP 66

The gamma/ X is used for processes in which small quantities must be metered continuously with high precision. Because the environment might be dirty or damp, the gamma/ X has satisfied the requirements of IP 65 since it was first launched in 2015. When ProMinent sent the pump back to the official testing lab, the result was amazing: the pump also fulfils the requirements of IP 66 and NEMA 4X.

More applications, more safety

IP 66 means that the gamma/ X is also protected against high-pressure jets of water of 100 l/min. The gamma/ X also passed the even tougher NEMA 4X test with flying colours: it withstands a jet of water from nozzles measuring 25.4 mm across and at a distance of 3 to 3.5 m, from all directions and at 240 litres per minute, for five minutes. That’s what we call impressive performance.
