DuraCirc Circumferential Piston Application

Designed for Cleaning-in-Place (CIP), the Alfa Laval DuraCirc is ideal for hygienic applications within the Dairy, Food, Beverage and Personal Care industries. The highly efficient design is particularly suited to applications that are low in viscosity with medium to high discharge pressures and require equipment that can be cleaned in place.

How the DuraCirc Circumferential Piston Pump Works

The rotor pistons rotate around the circumference of the channel in the pump casing. This continuously generates a partial vacuum at the suction port as the rotors unmesh, causing fluid to enter the pump. The fluid is transported around the channel by the rotor pistons, and is displaced as the rotor pistons re-mesh, generating pressure at the discharge port. The direction of flow is reversible.
