Alfa Laval SRU Rotary Lobe Pump
Application
The SRU range of rotary lobe pumps has been designed for use on wide ranging applications within the Brewing, Dairy, Food, Pharmaceutical and Chemical industries. The SRU pump can handle from low to high viscosity media with its characteristic smooth, low shear pumping action being ideal for products such as creams, gels, emulsions, aerated mixtures, and delicate cells and organic solids in suspension.
The SRU range is suitable for CIP (Cleaning In Place) and conforms to USA 3-A Hygienic Standard. In addition the SRU pump range is certified by EHEDG (European Hygienic Equipment Design Group) as fully CIP cleanable to their protocol. The SRU pump range is
also classified for use in potentially explosive atmospheres under the ATEX Directive 94/9/EC Group II, Categories 2 & 3, with temperature classification T1 to T4. The SRU range is compact in size and highly efficient, capable of flow rates up to 106 m³/h and pressures up to 20 bar
The SRU in standard specification has tri-lobe rotors with the option of bi-lobe rotors for handling fluids containing large delicate solids. All rotors are available in three temperature ratings allowing the pump to be operated at maximum process temperatures of 70°C, 130°C and 200°C for both fluid pumped and CIP
Shaft Seal Options
- Single or single flush/quench.R90 or Hyclean type mechanical seals.
- Double R90 type mechanical seal for flush (steam barrier for aseptic application).
- Packed gland (unflushed or flushed versions).
