Technical Specifications Operating Limits Operating Data Tri-Lobe max(m³/h ) Bi-Wing max(m³/h ) Tri-Lobe Volume at 100 rpm/lt Bi-Wing Volume at 100 rpm/lt Lobes Type SLA rotary lobe pumps basically consist of two lobe rotors which rotate synchronously inside a casing without touching each other. As the rotors rotate, the spaces between the lobes and the casing are filled with the product, which is transported to the discharge nozzle with a fixed amount of displacement. The pumped fluid forms a continuous stream thanks to the tolerances between the lobes and the pump casing, thus ensuring an efficient...

SLA Rotary Lobe Pump-3

With geared motor and coupling mounted on stainless steel base frame With bare shafts Rectangular inlet With vertical ports Pressure Relief valve Heating Jackets Positive displacement rotary lobe pumps will continue to build up pressure when operating against a closed valve. Heating jackets are available for all pump sizes. This option makes it possible to heat the pump chamber and to ensure that products which solidify at ambient temperature are kept liquid. With this in mind,it is very important to add in safety device to prevent accidental over-pressurization and subsequent damage to the pump...
