Self Priming Pumps
Coron Enterprise offers a range of self-priming pumps designed for efficient and reliable fluid transfer without the need for external priming systems. These pumps are ideal for handling solvents, chemicals, and other process fluids where dry-start capability and quick re-priming are essential.
Self-priming pumps are commonly used in tank farm operations, charging systems, and fluid transfer applications across industries such as pharmaceuticals, chemicals, petrochemicals, and water treatment. Their ability to lift fluid from below the pump level makes them especially useful in Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API) units and similar demanding environments.
Self-priming pumps are a specialized type of centrifugal pump engineered to automatically remove air from the suction line, allowing the pump to start pumping without manual intervention. These pumps are especially valuable in situations where they are installed above the fluid source or where the fluid supply may intermittently contain air pockets.
Unlike conventional centrifugal pumps, self-priming pumps feature an integrated air-handling mechanism that evacuates air from the system and creates a vacuum to draw liquid into the pump chamber. This ensures consistent and uninterrupted operation—even in systems with entrained air or intermittent supply.

About Self-Priming Pumps
The in-line construction of the Investa Vertical Self-Priming Pump aligns the suction and discharge ports along the same axis. This technique eliminates the need for axial or thrust bearings, enabling highly efficient and smooth horizontal fluid transfer—ideal for bulk drug manufacturing operations.
To ensure production precision and minimize downtime, Investa employs investment casting technology, reducing casting rejections in heavy-walled chambers. This results in superior build quality and faster delivery timelines.
As global demand for bulk drug production increases and project schedules become tighter, the Investa Vertical Self-Priming Pump stands out as a high-performance solution. Whether it’s for solvent tanker loading and unloading or transferring solvents from tank farms to charging vessels, this pump delivers unmatched speed, durability, and reliability in critical solvent-handling operations.
