Pump Overload Protection

For essential overload protection to protect pump, drive unit and also limit pressure build up within associated process equipment.
Pressure relief valve - supplied as an integral part of the pump and not requiring any external pipework. The design is such that the valve mechanism is isolated from the pumped media. Mechanical or pneumatic operation is available for both pressure/safety and cleaning
bypass.
Pump Protection Unit (PPU) - supplied as an alternative to mechanical relief valves. Incorporating micro-controller technology the PPU detects and reacts to changes in load conditions.

 
 
Surface Finish & Coatings
To enhance standard surface finish or for hygiene purposes, the pumphead and rotors may be electro polished. For abrasive applications the stainless steel pumphead and rotors may be supplied with a tungsten carbide coating or other surface hardening treatment to increase wear resistance.  
 
Interchangeable Rotors
Mathematically defined profile and precision manufacture ensure interchangeability of rotors with sealed involute splines giving accurate position, location and positive rotor drive. Option of bi-lobe rotors in stainless steel for handling products containing large delicate solids, or bi-lobe rotors manufactured from non-galling alloy for increased efficiencies. Elastomeric tri-lobe rotors can also be offered where the application dictates.  
 
Pumped Media Seals
The optimum primary seal can be chosen to match the pumped media and duty conditions. Single or double mechanical seals include flushed or aseptic variants. For arduous duties hard faced seal materials such as tungsten carbide or silicon carbide can be used. Packed glands offer a simple, low cost, and easy to maintain controlled leakage sealing arrangement. Pumped media wetted elastomers are EPDM, NBR, FPM all FDA conforming or PTFE for chemical applications.  
 
Heating & Cooling Devices
These are primarily used for heating the pumphead so as to maintain the pumped media viscosity and reduce risk of any crystallization/ solidification. They may also be used for cooling purposes when required.  
 
Connections

Comprehensive choice covering:

  • Screwed male connections to all major standards including BSP, DIN11851, IMDA/3A, ISS/IDF, NPT, Rdg, RJT, SMS, Tri-clamp and more.
  • Flange connections to all major standards including ASA/ANSI150, BS4504/DIN2533, BS10E and more.
  • Enlarged diameter and rectangular ports for handling very high viscosity products.
 
 
Motorized Pump Units
Pumps may be supplied fully motorized with fixed or variable speed drives including appropriate control systems if required, mounted on either mild or stainless steel baseplates. In addition to electric motor drives, hydraulic,
pneumatic, diesel or gasoline powered prime movers can be fitted.
