Pump Models | Pump Concepts | Pump Applications

Discflo's disc pump is used for pumping the following types of fluids in the food and sugar processing industries. A more detailed list of applications is given in the table below.

• Viscous and high solids fluids: eg molasses, sugar slurries with up to 80% solids, pet food sludge, brewery waste, slaughter house waste, etc
• Abrasive fluids: eg sugar slurries, meat waste with bones, blood, oyster shell slurry, etc
• Delicate and shear sensitive foodstuff: eg citrus oil, corn kernels, sugar crystals, rice, fruit, etc
• Large and/or stringy solids: by widening the spacing between the discs in the Discpac, solids up to 20" [50mm] can be pumped, eg whole chickens
