Rotary Lobe Pump SLRT

Rotary Lobe Pump SLRT

Application

The SLRT pump is a positive displacement rotary lobe pump designed to discharge food and sanitary products from a truck cistern as it can be driven by a hydraulic motor. The pump is characterised by a compact design, reduced weight and interchangeable connections to facilitate its assembly to a truck.

The SLRT pump is designed to pump liquid products with or without delicate solid particles that require gentle pumping causing no damage to the product.

Operating principle

The SLRT rotary lobe pumps basically consist of bi-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 successively filled with the product and a fixed amount of the displaced product is conveyed to the discharge nozzle. The pumped product forms a continuous flow thanks to the clearances between the lobes and the pump casing, thus, ensuring an efficient pumping.
Design and features

The pump casing and the lobes are manufactured in stainless steel. The design of the attachments of the lobes is sanitary. The shaft is hollow with spline SAE 6B 1˝. The SLRT rotary lobe pump is supplied with a sanitary mechanical seal. It is characterised by easily cleaning and maintenance.
