Crimpmaster stem pump kits

Selmech’s Crimpmaster applicators are robustly made and purpose built for applying various types of liquid preservative additives. Whilst they are perfectly capable of being used with bacterial inoculants, they have been primarily designed for applying propionic acid (Propcorn) to aid in preserving moist grain forage when crimping or rolling. The stem pumps are designed to fit into a 200 litre barrel but can also be used in IBCs. For smaller containers a short reach option can be made to special order.

The Crimpmaster has been a popular applicator for many years for treating moist grain that is being processed through roller mills, crimping machines and augers.
The flow rate is set using a combination of a controlled flowmeter and multi-drive switch box with 3 drive settings to enable the pump to run efficiently and accurately. A calibration guide is provided with the applicator.

Controlled flow rates (open flow)

  • Low volume applicator 0.8 - 3.4 litres per minute
  • High volume applicator 1.3 - 5 litres per minute
  • Extra high volume applicator 2 - 10 litres per minute

The applicator includes the pump, switch box, controlled flowmeter, filter, power cable and a reel of durable braided hose.
