Industrial areas of application for multi screw pumps
Oil and gas extraction: Reliable performance even under extreme conditions
Multi screw pumps are essential in the oil and gas industry for safely and efficiently moving media such as crude oil, gas condensate and heavy oil, even at high pressures and temperatures. Their robust design enables smooth, pulsation-free pumping, protecting equipment and minimising maintenance requirements. Whether in drilling fields, pipelines, loading or as a lube oil pump, the multi screw pump's versatility and ability to perform under extreme conditions make it the ideal solution for demanding areas of application.
Chemical industry: Precision and safety for demanding processes
Multi screw pumps meet the high requirements of the chemical industry by pumping aggressive, viscous and sensitive media precisely, safely and efficiently. Their material resistance to chemicals such as acids, alkalis or solvents ensures a long service life and plant safety. Their pulsation-free pumping makes them suitable for many processes, from precise dosing of highly concentrated substances to processing large volume flows. Multi screw pumps can even convey shear-sensitive media gently without affecting the chemical composition. Due to their high efficiency, low maintenance requirements and adaptability, multi screw pumps are the preferred choice in the chemical industry to produce plastics, additives and other products with maximum safety.
Food and beverage production: Hygienic precision for sensitive products
Multi screw pumps are also becoming increasingly popular in food and beverage production, as they meet the highest hygienic standards and can handle sensitive media such as juices, yoghurt or oils gently and efficiently. Their ability to pump media of different viscosities without pulsation ensures consistent product quality, while their hygienic design meets the strict requirements of EHEDG and FDA. Smooth, easy-to-clean surfaces and CIP and SIP capability ensure maximum food safety. The flexibility of the multi screw pump enables its use in a wide range of application areas, from dosing liquid ingredients to conveying carbonated beverages.
Advantages of multi screw pumps
