1. ABOUT VISCOTWIN SCREW PUMPS
1.2 Working Principle
Screw pumps are rotary positive displacement pumps for conveying low to high viscosity media. The
ViscoTwin G8
is a positive displacement pump characterized by a double screw, or spindle, design. The
pump utilizes very close tolerances to create a series of "sealed" chambers between spindle windings.
This allows the pump to more efficiently transport highly viscous product with minimal slippage and
precision flowrate control as well as gentle handling of solid particulates already mixed into the product.
ViscoTwin G8
The precision craftsmanship of the
means it can generate a very high pressure differential,
even with a low inlet pressure.
The pump is also highly customizable, with several sizes and inlet/outlet variations to suit the needs of
the product and the space available. Additionally, the pump is maintenance friendly and fully CIP-able, to
ensure ease of use.
ViscoTwin G8
pumps used in the food and beverage industry are designed to meet the most stringent
sanitary design criteria (3A, EHEDG), and are built with corrosion-resistant materials in accordance with
recommendations from US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and other international food safety
governing bodies. Pumps are delivered with a motor, lantern, and framing as standard for easy installation.
