Today, we will be shipping a Desmi Roten gear pump to conclude a project that commenced at the end of May 2024.
The project commenced due to repurposing of a process vessel which was going to handle a fluid with a viscosity of approx. 1500mm2/s at low temperatures. This meant that the mag-drive end-suction centrifugal pump previously used was no longer suitable for the process – necessitating a positive displacement technology instead.
Given the low volumetric flow rate and pressure requirements for the process, a gear pump was identified as the most suitable pumping technology.
