The Casella (UK) TUFF pump, for monitoring dust and air sampling, are ideal for workers on fracking and shale gas extraction sites. In addition to its certification for use in potentially hazardous atmospheres due to flammable gases or dusts, the main benefits of the IS TUFF pump are its reliability and battery management.

Built to withstand harsh environmental conditions, the pump’s intelligent battery monitoring and fast/trickle charge control facility maintain optimum battery condition and service life, while fast charging and a remaining run time ‘fuel gauge’ are also among the unit’s benefits.

TUFF pumps feature an easy-to-use display with high intensity LED alarm for fault indication, plus an exceptional flow rate courtesy of an efficient double acting diaphragm mechanism with precise digital control. The TUFF is also designed to European IP54 standards, which means it is protected from dust and splashing water.
