The ZP3 from #AmpcoPumps is an excellent choice when pumping very high viscus liquids. Watch this video, demonstrating the manufacturing of soup cubes.
The raw material has a viscosity of more than 2 million mPas. It is very dry and needs a feeding screw to enter the rectangular pump inlet. The feeding conveyer overfeeds the pump with 120% to prevent air pockets. You also may see the very low pulsation with the Ampco ZP3 #circumferentialpistonpump. The ZP3 may handle up to 35 bar and is suitable for viscosities from 1 to 2 million mPas.
Other features are self-priming, suitable for metering applications, sensitive handling of liquids also with sensitive pieces, available in an aseptic version, #EHEDG certified and easy service.
The patented ZP3 Series positive displacement pump is the best choice for sanitary food and beverage processing because only the ZP3 is fully CIP-able without modification, while maintaining full efficiency. The ZP3 Series is EHEDG and 3A Certified. Manufactured and assembled in the U.S.A.
An overview of Gorman-Rupp’s offerings for oil and gas applications. A complete line of pumps specifically designed for pumping clean, non-abrasive petroleum products.
Gorman-Rupp manufactures a full line of pumps specifically designed for pumping clean, non-abrasive petroleum products in critical applications at bulk plants, tank farms, barges, tank cars and fuel trucks. Gasoline, biodiesel, ethanol, aircraft fuels, petrochemicals, fuel oil, and hundreds of other petroleum-based products can be handled safely and efficiently with Gorman-Rupp pumps.
Priming-Assisted Pumps
Gorman-Rupp priming assisted pumps are specifically designed for handling a variety of clean petroleum products. Their design incorporates a variable capacity vane pump which quickly and automatically evacuates air and vapor.
Self-Priming Centrifugal Pumps
Gorman-Rupp self-priming centrifugal pumps are easy to install and easy to service. Because they’re self-priming, they can be mounted high and dry at floor level, with only the suction line in the liquid. If service or maintenance is required, it can be completed quickly and easily. There are no long drive shafts to install and align. And, there is never a need for service personnel to enter the sump. Pumps are available as basic units for connection to your power source or may be close-coupled or engine driven.
Standard Centrifugal Pumps
Gorman-Rupp offers a variety of high volume, high pressure centrifugal pumps. They have few moving parts, so maintenance and service are minimal. Gorman-Rupp centrifugal pumps are engineered for maximum operating performance and minimal energy consumption. These pumps are used in hundreds of applications where petroleum based products must be handled safely and efficiently.
Rotary Gear Pumps
Gorman-Rupp positive displacement rotary gear pumps are versatile enough to handle a wide variety of pumping applications, liquids, viscosities and temperatures. They are available in a variety of drive arrangements, including close-coupled, flex-coupled, gear reducer and v-belt drive.
OTS Pumps
Gorman-Rupp OTS pumps are a complete line of self-priming, standard centrifugal, diaphragm, submersible and rotary gear models. Drive options include engine-driven, electric motor-driven or submersible configurations. The OTS pumps program provides a pumping solution when you need it. Offering over one hundred pump models, these products can be purchased anytime, anywhere. From high pressure to medium head, solids-handling to clear fluids, Gorman-Rupp has the right pump for the job.
Goulds 3196 on polyshield base plate with motor adjusters, seal flush system, Uniguard machine guard and laser alignment, and i-Alert2. For use in aggressive chemical pumping. Has all the bells and whistles!
In most pulp and paper applications, energy and unscheduled maintenance are two of the largest components of ownership cost. For this reason, improving pump efficiency is key to pump system optimization.
Although certain mechanical and control modifications can improve reliability, selecting the best hydraulic fit is an often overlooked approach to system optimization. Energy and reliability are two sides of the same coin: A good rule of thumb is that where there is excess energy beyond what is required to move fluid through the pipes, there will also be unreliability.
