Bronze resists corrosion

The simplicity of the ejector, which has no moving parts, makes it suitable for a large number of sucking and pumping jobs in marine installations. It is mostly made of bronze, which resists corrosion, and the simple construction allows the fluid being sucked up to contain particles and fibres. The ejector needs no lubrication or maintenance and can be placed quite close to the fluid to be pumped, so avoiding the need for long pipes and hoses. Ejectors can create an almost total vacuum.
