LobePro Rotary Lobe Pumps have proven they are effective and efficient in a many of power plant applications and locations. Our pumps are suitable for pumping any fluid material, with a low grit content and hard solids under 1/8” (3 mm), at flows up to 2000 GPM and pressures up to 150 PSI.

Primary Reasons to Select a Rotary Lobe Pump include the following features and their benefits to the customer:

• Self priming suction lift to 25’- Allows Pump to be mounted at top of sump for easy servicing and prolong life
• Low shear - Less emulsification = easier later separation
• High pressure - Able to pump through long piping runs in plant
• Metered, near pulseless flow - Enabled by positive displacement and helix lobes. Useful for feeding separators. Pulsation dampeners are not required.
• Stainless steel pumps available - for corrosives and chemicals
• Ability to pump viscous fluids - because of Positive Displacement
• Ability to pump fine abrasives - because of slow speed, rubber coated lobes, & hardened metals
• Able to run forward or reverse - good for backwashing
• Able to pump at any duty point - required in pump’s gpm & pressure capacity
