Food Grade Pumps

Lobe pumps are frequently used in food applications because they offer superb sanitary qualities, high efficiency, reliability, corrosion resistance and good clean-in-place and steam-in-place (CIP/SIP) characteristics. The design of the lobes, casing and the principle of operation also ensures a gentle pumping action and reduces product degradation. Particle size pumped can be much larger in lobe pumps than in other positive displacement types. Rotary pumps can handle solids such as fruits, slurries, pastes, and a variety of other viscous liquids. If wetted, they offer self-priming performance.
