Inline Pump

Inline pumps are used in a variety of industries including, pulp and paper, chemical, food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and biotechnology. They are popular in these diverse industries because they offer superb sanitary qualities, high efficiency, reliability, corrosion resistance, and good clean-in-place and service-in-place (CIP/SIP) characteristics.

Rotary pumps can handle solids (e.g., cherries and olives), slurries, pastes, and a variety of liquids. If wetted, they offer self-priming performance. A gentle pumping action minimizes product degradation. They also offer continuous and intermittent reversible flows and can operate dry for brief periods of time. Flow is relatively independent of changes in process pressure, too, so output is constant and continuous.

Rotary pumps also offer superior CIP/SIP performance. Once in line, they can be cleaned without being removed. Depending on the application, it is a good idea to check with the manufacturer to make sure if a particular lobe pump meets both 3-A requirements.

As a general rule, rotary pumps require very little maintenance. Some manufacturers offer pumps that allow for seal servicing and maintenance with the pump in line.
