flex DFBa is
selectable via the identcode.
The DULCO
®
flex DFBa is a displacement pump. The feed chem‐
ical is conveyed by the rotor squeezing the hose in the direction of
flow. No valves are needed for this. This ensures gentle handling
of the metered media.
The DULCO
®
flex DFBa has been designed for safe and uncompli‐
cated operation, as well as straightforward maintenance.
The DULCO
®
flex DFBa can be used for many different media.
However, this pump type is often the optimal solution for abrasive,
shear-sensitive and viscose media.
Typical areas of use include processes where only a low discharge
pressure is required (max. 8 bar).

The pump housing is closed off with a screwed front cover in order
to avoid the risk of injury.
The motor serves to drive the rotor. Two rollers at the ends of the
rotor serve to press the pump hose against the pump housing.
The rotary movement of the rotors alternately press and relax the
rollers in relation to the pump hose. This serves to suck the media
in and convey it into the metering line.
