Rotary lobe pumps are positive-displacement type pumps that use two or more lobes rotating around parallel shafts in the pump’s body to move liquids. They are widely used in the hygienic processing industries, including food & beverage processing and biopharmaceutical manufacturing.

Advantages Of Rotary Lobe Pumps

• Changes in rotation lead to flow reversal
•  Easy to maintain
• High flow density
• Low pulsation
• Continuous flow
• Precise dosage
• Flow proportional to velocity

Application Areas

Like other technologies among the positive displacement pumps, rotary lobe pumps can be used in a broad spectrum of applications. 

• Food & beverage processing
• Biopharmaceutical manufacturing

The Rotary Lobe Pump for syrup and molasses is a highly efficient positive displacement pump engineered to handle viscous, sensitive, and abrasive fluids with exceptional care and reliability. Its operation is based on two or more synchronized lobes rotating within the pump chamber, creating a gentle pumping action that moves product from the suction to the discharge side. This specific design makes the Rotary Lobe Pump for syrup and molasses ideal for demanding applications in the food and beverage industry, where maintaining product integrity is paramount. It excels at transferring high-viscosity fluids like syrups, molasses, creams, and fruit concentrates without causing shear damage or degradation.

This type of pump is characterized by its robust performance, capable of handling high viscosities up to 100,000 cSt, delivering heads up to 180 meters, and managing pressures up to 18 bar. Its hygienic design, often compliant with strict industry standards, allows for easy cleaning and maintenance, ensuring sanitary processing. Key advantages include low pulsation, a continuous and precise flow proportional to the rotor speed, and reversible flow direction. The versatility of the Rotary Lobe Pump for syrup and molasses is further demonstrated by its ability to handle products containing solids, its self-priming capability, and its suitability for various drive options, including electric, hydraulic, and diesel.
