Gentle Optilobe rotary lobe pumps

Alfa Laval has added the OptiLobe 10 and OptiLobe 50 to its product range. Now with four new pump sizes, Alfa Laval sees to it that the requirements of lower flow rates and higher production capacities can be met. The new pumps will provide the possibility of having heating/cooling front covers for processes, where products tend to harden at low temperatures.

Alfa Laval OptiLobe's high precision rotors and low-shear operation ensure gentle handling of delicate products. With full cleanability, the OptiLobe also complies with the world's leading hygienic standards.

Seal faces in the OptiLobe have direct contact with high-velocity product media. This ensures a fast and secure Cleaning-in-Place (CIP) process, reducing both cleaning time and contamination risk. Engineered for use within the food, dairy, beverage and home-personal care industries, these positive displacement pumps conform to CE directives and EHEDG, 3-A and FDA hygienic standards.

The OptiLobe pumps are engineered with a wide performance envelope, thanks to an advanced rotor shape design and a rotor case that incorporates cusps. In addition to maximising pump efficiency, these designs feature reduced pulsation and noise emissions. The OptiLobe pumps help reduce the likelihood of product damage by internal product recirculation.

Factory-set shimming simplifies maintenance by making the process of changing the rotor quick and smooth, with no further adjustment or retrimming needed. Alfa Laval's high-precision components also allow for full interchangeability of spare parts.
