FDS Double Screw Pump
Process flexibility – 3 pumps in 1: Reducing costs, simplifying the process, standardising factory lines.
Where multistage processes are concerned, handling a wide variety of different products as well as CIP lines is common. Ordinarily multiple product pumps would tackle each application individually and additional CIP pumps were required for cleaning. However, with an FDS, this can be a thing of the past…
Due to its design, an FDS double screw pump, is equally capable of switching between:
- Pumping multiple different products
- Scavenging product – where maximising yield is important
- Pumping CIP
With such a wide envelope of capabilities, a single FDS can be capable of replacing multiple pumps! Learn more about this here.
The ultimate problem-solving pump.
The Fristam FDS double screw pump is offered for a wide variety of applications, but it can really prove its worth when combatting these particularly challenging applications:
- Pumping product with soft or hard particles, which need to be kept intact during transfer.
- Pumping extremely viscous applications – up to 1 million cP.
- Pumping shear sensitive products.
- Pumping products with large volume of entrained air, or air pockets.
- High suction capabilities – for IBC, drum or tanker emptying.
- Pumping degassed products out of a vacuum tank.
- Exceptional hygiene requirements – every Fristam pump conforms to the strictest worldwide standards, but the FDS design is particularly hygienic due to its open, fully flushed mechanical seal area. Sterilisation possible.
Maintenance has never been simpler.
Thanks to its compact size and specially designed bearings the Fristam FDS can be mounted horizontally as well as vertically.
Inspection and maintenance have never been as simple as this: seals and conveying elements can be exchanged easily and quickly.
Optional extras which ensure the FDS can handle applications with even the most complex properties:
- Different sealing options
- ATEX rated
- Heated jackets
- Special surface treatments
- Electro-polishing
- High temperature adaptations
- Sterilisatio
Optional extras which ensure the FDS can be seamlessly integrated into your process setup:
- Rectangular Inlets
- Ports on the side of the pump
- Mobile units, mounted on trolleys
FDS Powerpack Designs – High Pressure Pumping
For the highest-pressure applications, Fristam can supply an FDS power-pack option. This fabricated skid consisting of 2 FDS pumps stacked vertically above one another can withstand extreme pressures.
