What sort of fluids are progressing cavity pumps used for?
Progressing cavity pumps are often installed for handling viscous fluids at high flow rates or where a high discharge pressure is required with a smooth flow.
Typical fluids may include slurry, mashes, pulps, dough from waste water treatment plants, anaerobic digestion facilities and paper recycling plants.
As the pump flow rate is proportional to the speed the pump can be used for the dosing of viscous fluids such as additives and chemicals.
