Positive Displacement Pump
What is an FKL Pump?
The Fristam FKL Circumferential Piston Pump is a highly specialized sanitary positive displacement pump designed to handle a wide range of process applications, particularly in industries that require reliable, high-performance fluid transfer. The FKL pump is engineered with precision to ensure optimal flow rates and efficiency, even when dealing with challenging fluids like high-viscosity liquids or those containing solid particles. Its robust design and adaptable performance make it a go-to choice for applications in diverse sectors such as food & beverage, pharmaceuticals, personal care, and more.
The FKL is the first close-clearance sanitary PD pump to be designed for “True CIP.” Fristam’s FKL does not require removal of any components from the pump for clean in place operation. The cover and rotors remain in place. This provides a simple and effective solution with minimal downtime and no performance loss.
Where is the FKL positive displacement pump used? (Key Applications)
The Fristam FKL PD pump is versatile and can be found in a variety of industries where the demand for precision and reliability is paramount. Key applications include:
How does the FKL pump work? (Theory of Operation)
The FKL circumferential piston pump operates on the principle of positive displacement, where a fixed volume of fluid is moved per cycle, making it ideal for applications that require consistent and accurate flow. The pump consists of a series of two rotors that turn within a casing, forming individual chambers between the rotors and casing wall. As the rotors turn, they trap the fluid in these chambers and move it through the pump, pushing it out under pressure.
The key feature of the circumferential piston design is its ability to handle high-viscosity fluids, shear-sensitive liquids, and even fluids containing solids or particulates. This design ensures minimal pulsation and smooth, steady flow, even under high-pressure conditions. The result is a pump that is gentle on your product, efficient in operation, and highly reliable over time.
