Rotary lobe pump TORNADO®

The TORNADO® Mobile combines the flexibility and independence of a mobile unit with the proven technology of a TORNADO® T1 rotary lobe pump from NETZSCH. Mobility through mounting on a car or truck trailer enables the pumping of large quantities of fluids with high solid content, wastewater, and slurry at the most diverse and unusual locations. Depending on the application, the TORNADO® rotary lobe pump is mounted on a trailer with a diesel unit in the appropriate size. At the core of the mobile units are the TORNADO® pumps with two rotary lobes that are three-winged and screw-shaped, engaging while rotating. They thereby generate a vacuum on the suction side. This means the water is drawn in automatically and conveyed to the discharge side. Viscosity and dry matter content have minimal effect on the volumetric flow. Solids like sand or clumps of earth pose absolutely no problems for the robust pumps. Robust design ensures reliable operation. Special attention was paid to robustness during the design phase to ensure that abrasive or aggressive media would be unable to damage the technology. The rotary lobes are coated with resistant nitrile rubber, which enables the pump seal to function reliably even under great stress and strain. Furthermore, the gearbox and pump chambers in the pumps are separated from one another. Even in the event of the shaft sealing failing, the media being conveyed will not be able to enter the gearbox and cause damage. The pumping capacity, drive (diesel unit), and chassis are designed precisely to match the features of the pumping medium and purpose.
