Self-Priming

Aspir

Applications
The Aspir pump is a sanitary, side-channel, self-priming pump suitable for use in the food-processing, pharmaceutical and chemical industries. It is specially designed for pumping materials containing air or gas, and it can also be used for negative suction with prior priming as well as with filtration equipment.
It can be used with wine, oil, syrups, volatile products such as alcohol, acetone and other solvents, or with products at temperatures close to boiling point. However, the main use of this pump is for CIP return.

Operating principle
The impeller is housed between the inlet body and the venturi casing and it rotates in conjunction with the pump shaft. This arrangement, together with the rotation of the impeller and the arrangement of the side channel, create a negative pressure inside the inlet body, which generates the suction force of the pump. At the same time, the fluid receives energy in the form of kinetic energy and pressure energy, and this impels it though the impeller casing.

Prolac SA

Applications
The Prolac SA pump is a centrifugal pump specially designed to pump fluids containing air or gas without losing its pumping power. It can be used in the food-processing, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries.
It can be used with wine, oil, syrups, volatile products such as alcohol, acetone and other solvents, or with products at temperatures close to boiling point. However, the main use of this pump is for CIP return.

Operating principles
The Prolac SA pump is a self-priming pump which does not require the use of a vacuum pump or other devices such as a foot valve or additional piping.
The pump must be primed with fluid only once before starting-up. When it is operated, the pump suctions the air or gas present inside the suction pipe and mixes it with the fluid inside the pump casing. The centrifugal force drives the liquid-gas mixture to the higher part of the casing. Because of the ample dimensions of the casing, here the fluid looses velocity and the air is expelled through the drive pipe.
Thus, the air is eliminated along the suction pipe before the fluid reaches the pump casing and then the pump begins to operate as normal centrifugal pump.
It is very important that the suctioned air can escape when running along the drive pipe without being subject to any kind of counter-pressure. Users are strongly advised not to reduce the hydraulic power of the pump by reducing the size of the impeller or reducing the speed of the engine by means of a frequency converter, since this would effect the suction power of the pump.

Centrifugal

Din Food

Applications

The DIN-FOOD pump is a sanitary, high-capacity centrifugal pump designed to cater for a hitherto unfulfilled need in the food-processing and chemical/pharmaceutical industries.

Operating principle
Housed inside the casing, the impeller rotates in conjunction with the pump shaft.
With this arrangement, the impeller blades convey energy to the fluid in the form of kinetic energy and pressure energy.
This pump is not reversible by simple reversal of the direction of rotation. The direction of rotation is clockwise when the pump is viewed from the rear side of the motor.

Multistage MS

Applications
The MS pump is a multi-impeller centrifugal pump. This type of pumps is used for pumping fluids at low output and high pressure, thereby achieving a much higher performance than single-stage centrifugal pumps. Their applications include processes in the diaries and beverages industries, such as filter feeding, filling systems and feeding of exchangers. They can also be used to pump drinking or process water, CIP cleaning systems, and in the textile industry.

Operating principles
The MS pump consists of an inlet body and outlet body, and between the inlet and the outlet one to six successive stages can be added. Each stage consists of a casing and an impeller.
The first impeller receives the pumped material from the inlet area of the pump, and every next impeller receives the material from the preceding impeller, until the last impeller drives the product through the outlet of the pump
Each stage impels to the fluid an amount of pressure according to the power of the impeller, and the differential pressure of the pump is the sum of the pressure added by each of the successive stages.

Positive Displacement

Kiber KVB

Application
The KVB-25 pumps are hygienic vertical progressive cavity pumps. The pump is specially designed for transfer media of either high or low viscosity from tanks and barrels by means of a pump tuber introduced into the drum.
Some of the most important applications of this pump type is transferring of fruit concentrates for the beverage production, tomato concentrate for the ketchup production, transferring of creams, honey and other media of high viscosity.
Pumping is characterised by a gentle transfer of media with shear sensitive particles.

Operating principle
The pump tube is introduced into the drum with the media to transfer. Friction between the stator and the rotor creates vacuum at the inlet of the pump thus facilitating the entry of the product into the pump.
The turning motion of the rotor makes the cavities between the rotor and the stator move forward and transport the product to the outlet.

Lobe SLR

Applications
The SLR pump is a lobular rotating positive displacement pump of a sanitary design suitable for use in the dairies, food-processing, beverage, pharmaceutical and fine chemicals industries. This pump is perfect for managing all kinds of fluid, of either low or high viscosity, in the food-processing, dairies, and cosmetics industries, as well as for filtering and bottling applications. Fluids containing fragile solids such as junket can be pumped without damage thanks to the specially designed lobes.

Operating principle
The SLR pumps basically consist of two 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 fluid, which is transported to the discharge nozzle with a fixed amount of displacement. The pumped fluid forms a continuous stream thanks to the tolerances between the lobes and the pump casing, thus ensuring an efficient pumping.

RF Flexible Impeller

Applications
The RF pump is a flexible-impeller pump. Because of their design, these pumps are self-priming pumps that can suction from a maximum height of 5 meters. This type of pumps particles or gases.
Their main uses include pumping in diaries, edible oils, wine, concentrates and beverages in general. They can also be used with viscous food products such as jam and marmalade, confectioner's custard, as well as cosmetic products such as soap, gels, toothpaste, and cosmetic creams. Other applications include the paint, textile and chemicals industries.


Operating principles
Due to the eccentric shape of the pump housing, a vacuum is created in the suction side that enlarges the volumen between the blades and this causes the product suction.
By spinning the rotor, the product is carried from the suction to the impulsion side.
Due to the eccentric shape of the pump housing, in the discharge side the blade bends, reducing the volume between them and causing the discharge of the product.
