Technical Data
Consistent performance, minimal risk of contamination
SRU rotary lobe pumps are designed with features that maximize performance and minimize the risk of contamination. These include a defined compression front cover sealing, rotor nut retention design, drainable pump head and ultra-clean surface finishes.
Safeguarding product quality
Understanding flow patterns is vital to ensure high-efficiency fluid transfer with low pulsation, low shear and low noise characteristics. Alfa Laval employs Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to establish exact geometry for the rotors and rotor case.
Greater flexibility and application fit
The modular design of the SRU provides greater flexibility to configure exactly the right solution for specific process requirements.
To meet different process requirements, the SRU features an R90 external shaft seal, which may be specified in various materials and configurations to ensure the correct shaft seal for the application. Alternatively, the SRU can be fitted with Hyclean mechanical seals as well as other seal solutions.
In addition to a broad range of models and capacities available in horizontal or vertical porting, the SRU has a wide selection of options, including standard and custom seals, heating/cooling saddles and jackets, an integrated pressure relief valve and a rectangular inlet for pumping high viscosity fluids.
Robust construction – low maintenance
To deliver reliable operation and low maintenance the SRU features a robust gearbox construction with heavy-duty shafts, torque locking assemblies and taper roller bearings throughout.
Supply and delivery
The SRU range is available with twelve different pump head displacements, flow rates up to 106 m³/h, differential pressures up to 20 bar, temperatures up to 200°C and port sizes from 25 to 150 mm in diameter.
