Electrostatic Painting Applications for Our Pumps
Pumps serve an important function in electrostatic painting operations. Centrifugal pumps draw paint from a supply source to the distributing mechanism, and simultaneously electrostatically charges the paint as it is distributed.
The centrifugal mag pumps produced by March Pump are the top choice for electrostatic painting applications. Our products deliver higher flow in an efficient design with less leakage and wear and tear. Made in our facility just outside of Chicago, we use top quality materials that stand up to the toughest working conditions.

Choosing an Electrostatic Painting Pump
Electrostatic painting allows you to paint materials more effectively than traditional painting methods. Notably, this includes the painting of metal substrates. However, there are many purposes of electrostatic spray painting. Regardless of the specific application for electrostatic spray-painting equipment, there is one thing that is certain: you need a pump that delivers high flow and handles high internal pressures well. For this reason, we recommend centrifugal pumps. These pumps are a great way to produce the highest-quality results and ensure the most reliable process is conducted. Centrifugal pumps use engines or electric motors to create rotational energy that converts kinetic energy to the hydrodynamic energy you need for electrostatic painting.
What Materials Can Best Handle Electrostatic Painting?
We recommend polypropylene or glass-filled Kynar materials for your electrostatic painting pumps, especially if you use some of the more complex electrostatic paint sprayers. Specifically, this refers to the material of the front housing, rear housing, and impeller. These two top material solutions offer a variety of benefits that alternative materials do not provide to the same extent. Notably, these benefits include:
- Impact strength
- Electrical insulation
- Chemical resistance
- Leak prevention
We strongly urge you to give us a call to make the most informed decision as to which electrostatic painting pumps are right for you. However, in general, we recommend magnetic drive pumps.
