SUGAR INDUSTRY
The unique Rotary Lobe Pump with MIP!
Durable Solutions: Börger Rotary Lobe Pumps in the Sugar Industry
In various stages of sugar production pump demands may fluctuate. Without reliable and resilient pumps sugar cannot be produced. Börger has been in the pump business for over 20 years and has experience in virtually every area of sugar production. Rotors with replaceable tips. Easy maintenance and inexpensive
The Börger MIP-Design is a unique advantage to minimize downtime and maintenance. MIP (Maintenance In Place) allows for the quick and convenient replacement of all wetted parts without the removal of pipes, drives or other pump unit components. This can be done onsite by your own staff. Quick, Easy & Inexpensive. Börger offers rotors in various designs and materials. For highly viscous and abrasive
Exclusive from Börger: Unrivalled MIP-Design reduces life cycle cost and downtime.
product the Börger rotor (in steel or stainless steel) is recommended. The rotor has been successful in the sugar industry because it is driven at low speed and is suitable for continuous operation. Börger offers 19 pumps with a wide selection of casings and protection liners. Diverse configurations and additional components create a suitable pump for every application! We are offering tailor-made sealing systems for the use of our pumps in the sugar industry, which can withstand the high viscous and hardening sugar products.
Coated Screw Rotor: The helical design of the screw rotor ensures an almost pulsation-free operation and gentle handling of the pumped fluids.
Rotor · Pressure Stability · Suitable for viscous and abrasive product · Improved suction capabilities
Optimum Rotor · Large sealing area · Suitable for abrasive and aggressive fluids · Pressure stability
Pump Casing Protection Plates: Constructed in wear-resistant steel, stainless steel, plastic or ceramic.
