Nash imitators make many claims, but none of them have the equipment quality, engineering know-how, technical support and global service capabilities of the original NASH. Our newest models were designed using state-of-the-art CFD and 3D solid modeling tools. They are significantly more efficient in energy and water usage, offering improved vacuum and capacity...

NASH Vacuum Pumps & Compressors for the Sugar Industry From Plant to Juice Rotary Vacuum Filters Sugar Cane: After harvesting and delivery to a sugar mill, the cane is washed, chopped, and shredded by revolving knives. The shredded cane is then repeatedly mixed with water and crushed between rollers. The juice is collected and the remaining fibrous solids (called bagasse) are burned for fuel and used for papermaking. Nash pumps are used in these processes as well. Extracting available sucrose from the mud at the bottoms of clarifiers (filters) is usually a rotary drum filter operation. NASH vacuum...

NASH Vacuum Pumps & Compressors Drawing Non-Condensables Off Condensers Vapor, air and other non-condensables can be drawn off evaporators and vacuum pans in several ways. The modern approach is to evacuate counter-current condensers with single-stage NASH vacuum pumps. In a wet vacuum system like this, a NASH vacuum pump To Hogging Manifold serves as a secondary condenser. Liquid compressant Check If Used Temperature in intimate contact with the saturated air conValves Control Valve denses most of the vapor that was not removed in the counter-current condenser.

NASH Vacuum Pumps & Compressors Simple & Dependable The high cost of shutting down a plant operation in the middle of a campaign leads sugar refiners to seek out the simplest, most dependable equipment available. They choose NASH vacuum pumps and compressors. This is an application that demands some care in material specification. Carbonic acid is produced when CO2 is mixed with water. Corrosive sulfur compounds come through with flue gas from sulfur-bearing fuels. Either can make trouble, and both together are most likely to attack ordinary materials unless suitable precautions are taken. •...
