Sanitary Rotary Lobe Pump

Food Grade Rotary Lobe Pump is a positive displacement pump, Robust construction, low maintenance, cost-effective. Hygienic design complied with ASME BPE, EHEDG standards, US 3-A, FDA hygienic standard, the most common pump used to transfer high viscosity fluids solid and particle,  It offers a comprehensive range of pumps intended for hygienic applications in the food processing, dairy, beverage, home care and personal care and pharmaceutical industries…

Operation Principle

Rotor pump is also named rotary lobe pump,three-lobe pump,sole pump,etc.When the 2 simultaneous reverse rotating rotors(with 2-4 gears)revolve,it produces suction force at the inlet(vacuum),which intakes the material delivered.The 2 rotors divide the rotor housing into many smaller parts and revolve in the sequence of  A→B→C→D.When it revolves to position A,only housing I is filled  with medium;when it  revolves to position B,housing B encloses part of the medium,when it goes to position C,housing A encloses medium,and finally it goes to position D,then housing A,B and II are interlinked and the medium  is transported to the outlet.As this process is repeated, medium(material)is transported continuously.
