Sanitary Lobe Pump

A sanitary rotor pump, also known as a sanitary rotary pump or a sanitary helical rotor pump, is a positive displacement pump designed specifically for hygienic applications in industries such as food processing, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and biotechnology. These pumps are designed to meet strict hygiene and cleanliness standards while providing reliable, efficient fluid transf

Sanitary rotary lobe pump play a vital role in maintaining product quality, ensuring hygiene and meeting regulatory requirements in the sanitary processing industry. They are critical for conveying liquid and viscous products while maintaining cleanliness and product integrity throughout the process. Here are some of the main features and characteristics of sanitary rotary lobe pump:

  • 1. Positive Displacement: Like other positive displacement pumps, sanitary rotor pumps work by trapping fluid in a rotating part (the rotor)
  • and the pump casing (stator), thereby creating discrete volumes of fluid that flow through the pump. This design provides precise metering and consistent flow, making it suitable for applications requiring precise metering or handling of viscous fluids.
  • 2. Hygienic design: Hygienic cam pumps are constructed using materials and designs that meet strict hygiene standards. They are usually made of stainless steel
  • or other FDA-approved materials. They feature smooth surfaces, polished interiors and minimal gaps to prevent product contamination and are easy to clean and disinfect.
  • 3. Gentle handling: These pumps offer gentle product handling, making them suitable for conveying delicate or shear-sensitive fluids without,Damage the integrity or consistency of the product. This feature is particularly important in industries where product quality is critical, such as food and pharmaceutical manufacturing.
  • 4. Self-priming: Many sanitary rotary lobe pumps are self-priming, which means they can bleed air from the suction line and create a vacuum to draw product in, making them suitable for applications that require a stable flow rate, even when handling viscous or non-Newtonian This also ensures reliable operation and prevents cavitation when using fluids.
  • 5. Clean in Place (CIP) Function: These pumps are designed for easy cleaning and sanitation using a Clean in Place (CIP) system. They feature quick-disconnect components, hygienic seals and hygienic connections to help with thorough cleaning and sterilization, minimizing downtime and ensuring product purity.
  • 6. Versatility: sanitary rotary lobe pumps can handle a variety of viscosities, from thin liquids to high-viscosity fluids, and even products containing solids or particles. They are suitable for conveying liquids, creams, gels, suspensions and emulsions, making them a versatile solution for a variety of process applications.
  • 7. High Efficiency: These pumps have high volumetric efficiency, maintaining consistent flow rates even when handling challenging fluids or operating under changing conditions.
  • 8. Compliance: Sanitary rotary lobe pumps typically comply with industry standards and regulations such as 3-A Sanitary Standards, EHEDG (European Hygienic Engineering and Design Group), FDA (Food and Drug Administration), and cGMP (Current Good Manufacturing Practice) Manufacturing Practices) Guide.
