COMPLIANCE WITH STANDARDS
Arset Pump     TS EN 934-2    
           
Advantages
  • It provides a continuous and homogeneous concrete.
  • It enables the concrete to be pumped horizontally and vertically over long distances.
  • It prevents the abrasion of concrete pumps and pipes.
  • It does not have a negative effect on the properties of concrete.
  • It does not contain chlorine.
Areas of Use
  • For lubrication of the pumping line before pumping in all kinds of concrete
  • Concrete mixes that are not suitable for pumping, do not have suitable granulometry, have low thin material ratios, have the risk of segregation, and cause high pressure
Terms of Use

ARSET PUMP is added to the concrete mixture after the addition of water in the plant or into the ready mixed concrete in the transmixer at the construction site. It should not be added to the dry concrete mixture in the plant. Preliminary trials must be made in determining the dosage of additives.

ARSET PUMP is generally compatible with all kinds of concrete additives. However, when used with naphthalene sulphonate based concrete additives, the setting process and compliance should be observed.

Consumption Dosage

In concrete that is difficult to pump; Average 0.2 - 0.4% of cement weight

To reduce the pump pressure; Average 0.5 - 1.0% of cement weight

By evacuating into the pump inlet chamber; Average 2.0 - 4.0% of cement weight

Method of Application
  • As a concrete additive in the concrete mixture in the plant;

ARSET PUMP is added to the aggregate cement mixture after the water is added in the plant. The material shows its effect after 2-3 minutes of concrete mixing.

  • As a concrete admixture, in the ready mixed concrete mixture in the transmixer at the construction site;

It is added to the ready-mixed concrete in the truck mixer and mixed for 2-3 minutes.

  • By evacuating into the pump inlet chamber;

ARSET PUMP is diluted with water at an average ratio of 1: 1 and poured into the concrete inlet chamber of the pump. The concrete pump runs idle for a few minutes.

When the water in the line is drained, the pump is ready for use.

Compatibility with Other Admixtures

ARSTEP PUMP can be combined with the following admixtures. Laboratory tests should be carried out before use.

  • Arstep / Arstep Extra / Degaset Series Admixtures
  • Arset Air Series
  • Arset Doz Series
  • Arset Friz Series
  • Arset Fast Series
  • Arset Retard Series
  • Arset Zero Series
Packaging
  • 30 kg plastic drum
  • 250 kg drum
  • 1000 kg container
Storage and Shelf Life

Shelf life is 12 months from the date of production when stored in original unopened and undamaged packages (drums, barrels, IBC containers) at temperatures between +5 °C and +35 °C, protecting from direct sunlight, excessive heat and frost.

If the product has waited for a long time, make it homogeneous by mixing slowly at low speed with mechanical methods before using the product.

Some subsidence may occur during long-term storage. In this case, the product can be used by filtering. Make sure that the product does not freeze.

Safety Measures

Use protective clothes, gloves, glasses and mask compatible with health and safety regulations during the application. Avoid direct contact with eyes and skin during storing and application, in case of contact wash off thoroughly with soap and water, if ingested seek medical attention immediately. Store away from all foodstuffs. Keep away from children. ARSET PUMP is not flammable. For detailed safety information please consult the product’s Safety Data Sheet (SDS).
