Operating range

Vortex pumps are preferably used for media with higher solids contents. In addition, they have relatively good gas/liquid pumping capability. Media are conveyed gently for pump and medium solids contents of up to roughly 50% by volume, depending on grain sizes and properties

• Particle sizes of about 10 to 20 mm (2/5 - 4/5”), depending on the pump size

• Long-fibre constituents

• Gas contents of up to 5% by volume

• Operating temperature: -60 to +180°C (-75 to 360°F), depending on design and operating pressure

• Operating pressure up to 16 bar (235psi),depending on housing design

• Version for elevated vacuum (at standstill) optional

Features

• Maximum reliability through plain bearings with SAFEGLIDE® PLUS dry running optimisation (option)

• Minimised storage costs: pump can be adapted for a wide variety of operating conditions

• Independent of changing operating conditions through universally resistant PFA lining

• Highly service-friendly: few components, very little setting work
