Overview
The HLR pump is a rotary lobe pump designed in compliance with EHEDG specifications for plants and processes that meet the strictest hygienic standards. Due to their low rotational speeds, lobe pumps are characterised by a gentle pumping action and low shear rate of the product, thereby causing the least damage possible. The HLR series rotary lobe pump is designed for the transfer of all types of liquids (from 1 to 1,000,000 cP) and liquids with solid particles (curd, biologic cultivations, etc.). The HLR series is the ideal choice for applications in the food-processing, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries.
