A pump that uses compressed air to transfer liquids by utilizing internal pressure! It minimizes residual liquid, is energy-efficient, and is suitable for safely dispensing highly flammable liquids.

◎ Explosion-proof design that does not use electricity ◎ Double safety structure for peace of mind ◎ Can be stored in a sealed manner ◎ Compatible with high-viscosity liquids ◎ Low failure rate ◎ Efficient liquid discharge without waste ◎ Discharge method can also be selected 《Benefits》 ● Minimal residual liquid (approximately 200cc), can discharge without waste ● Safe transfer of volatile and flammable liquids ● Quiet operation with a 1 horsepower compressor ● Low air consumption and energy-saving ● Acceptable for small amounts of foreign matter contamination ● Continuous operation possible 《Features》 ● Dedicated to JIS standard 200L closed drums (large cap G2) ● Sealed pressurized drum for discharge only, not for recovery ● Double pressure reduction with regulator and safety valve for safety ● Equipped with an anti-static grounding wire (only for G, AS, SUS types) 《Air Pressure Pump Mechanism》 This pump inserts depressurized compressed air into the drum, changing the internal pressure of the drum to discharge and draw in liquid. Since there are no obstacles in the flow path, it can handle liquids with foreign matter contamination and viscosity (up to 3,000 cP) without failure. Additionally, being air-operated, it can be used with liquids and environments that pose a risk of ignition or explosion. *Flow meter and gun nozzle included; foreign matter contamination is not allowed.

The recognition that "the PDF invoice received from the other party must be stored as electronic data" is widely accepted. However, is that response truly sufficient for perfection? ◆ The "receipt" of electronic transactions includes issuance and delivery The Electronic Bookkeeping Act defines "electronic transactions" as the receipt of electromagnetic records related to transaction information. Breaking down the term "receipt" is key to understanding. - "Receipt": Receiving electronic data such as invoices and receipts from business partners - "Issuance": Issuing and delivering electronic data such as invoices and estimates to business partners When downloading a PDF from your company's accounting system and attaching it to an email, or concluding electronic contracts through a cloud-based invoicing service, both the receiving party and the issuing party (your company) are obligated to store the data. 【Utilizing paperlogic DESKTOP for document management】 - Elimination of manual input - Assurance of reliable searchability - Centralized management of receipt and issuance → paperlogic DESKTOP addresses the challenges of complex metadata management in the storage of these issued documents.
