TopLobe Plus Series rotary lobe pump

The TopLobe Plus (TLP) Series is a versatile, hygienic rotary lobe pump with low shear and gentle product handling for both high- and low-viscosity products. The pump provides good performance with low-noise, robust, consistent, smooth displacement of product using sizeable fluid cavities that can accommodate large solids in the product flow. It is optimised for energy-efficient operation and offers flushed double mechanical seals optionally to allow dry running.

It has a rotor-shaft attachment that ensures proper rotor positioning and backlash-free connection, and provide users with easy access and straightforward servicing. The gear case design ensures no cross-contamination of lubricating oils into the product zone and preloaded tapered roller bearings require no shimming. It has CIP capability and free-draining pump housing. Other features include a compact shaft sealing with short overhang and helical gears for smooth power transmission.

Versatile and easy to install, the pump is suitable for horizontal or vertical mounting, capable of bidirectional flow and has a four-way mounting gear case. The pump is easy to disassemble/reassemble and straightforward to service and maintain. A timing reference mark on the rotor and shaft provides a reference point during assembly, while a non-uniform screw pattern prevents misalignment. Tapers on the fixing screws and rotor precisely locate the rotor during assembly and prevent screws from loosening during operation.

The pump’s hygienic performance and efficiency makes it suitable for wide range of applications, including syrups and sauces, liquid soap and shampoo, pharmaceutical emulsions and slurries, cosmetic creams and lotions, paints, paper pulps, dyes, and chemical fibres.
