1.5 Performance Tables
ViscoTwin
The
pump sizing is dependant on the following factors:
•
Viscosity of the pumped media
•
Required Flowrate
•
Required differential pressure (NPSH Optimized discharge pressure)
In the food industry it is very common to have several different set points for various products with various
viscosities. Also, the pump is often used for self propelling CIP and needs to speed up in order to meet the
desired CIP flowrate of 1.8 m/sec (5 ft/sec) for appropriate line cleaning.
1.5.1 Sizing Chart
The pump sizing is best accomplished with a proprietary sizing software. For the engineer without access
to a sizing program, we created some sizing tables that are ready for download.
