PLP

SANITARY LOBE PUMP

The PLP Sanitary Lobe Pump is produced specifically for hygienic and sanitary applications within the food, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries. The series is fully compliant with EHEDG standards and has been designed with a heavy emphasis on achieving maximum performance & efficiency whilst offering compactness, robustness, cleanability & low maintenance costs thanks to its front pull-out design. The range consists of 11 pump sizes, depending on the flow and solids passage requirements. Like the PDSP Double Screw Pumps, the PLP Lobe Pump is entirely machined from cast Stainless Steel AISI 316L with a surface roughness of ‹.8 as standard (‹0.5 on request) to provide increased corrosion resistance.

Competitors units employ a cast iron gear box with epoxy paint which can become eroded over time and need replacing/repairing. The pump shafts are constructed from Duplex Stainless Steel 1.4462 to provide extra rigidity in operation and the pump can be fitted with a number of different sealing options and elastomer materials to suit almost any application.

With capacities up to 60 m³/hr and discharge pressures up to 15 Bar, this range of Sanitary Lobe Pumps is suitable for a wide variety of applications. This coupled with some key features and benefits puts it apart from its competition as one of the most versatile Lobe Pumps on the market today. With the delivery of each product, the customer receives a lobe rotor tool and dummy rotors to facilitate easy removal and replacement of lobes and mechanical seals, further reducing downtime.
