Updates to rotary lobe pump

The improved Hy-Iine Plus pump features enhanced stability when in operation, a tri-lobe rotor design, suitable for high viscosity liquids, or Jabsco’s single scimitar design, as well as the brand’s front-loaded mechanical seal system. Jabsco has a 40-year legacy in developing rotary lobe pumps, widely used in the food and beverage, dairy, personal care and health care industries.

Peter Wright, director, engineering and product management at Xylem Specialty Flow Control, says: “The new Jabsco Hy-line Plus is based on years of considered R&D investment, enhancing one of the most popular and successful rotary lobe pumps on the market. It’s not easy to better an icon but we’ve done it! The Hy-line Plus features a more stable operating design as well as a tri-lobe rotor option. This tri-lobe design improves inlet suction making it an ideal choice for pumping high viscosity materials such as chocolate and syrup.”

Jabsco Hy-line pumps have a front-loaded mechanical seal system. This is said to deliver significant time and cost savings if maintenance on the pump is required; changing a seal on a front-loaded pump can be completed within 15min.

Jabsco hygienic rotary lobe pumps are used for ingredient unloading and transfer, tank filling and emptying, recirculation and mixing, portion and container filling, sampling and filtration. Jabsco Hy-line pumps are used in one of the world’s largest corn flake manufacturing plants as well as by a leading international wafer and snack producer. Many brewers and dairy and confectionary producers also rely on Jabsco rotary lobe pumps for efficient and reliable food production. 

Xylem’s Jabsco brand is committed to swift order fulfilment with lobe pump orders completed and shipped to customers within five days.
