Packo represents a legacy of innovation that spans almost 90 years and accounts for millions of quality pumps sold and used around the globe. Now rebranded as Packo under the Verderliquids company, Packo continues to manufacture extremely dependable hygienic rotary lobe pumps.
These pumps are industry-preferred for their unequalled quality, hygiene, and durability standards. Their latest rotary lobe pumps incorporate modern technology and the latest hygienic concepts to satisfy the increasing demands for improved cleanability and sterilisation ability.
Lobe pumps belong to the positive displacement pump category, using lobes to move fluid. An expanding volume at the inlet side of the pump is created as the lobes come out of mesh. The fluid then flows into the cavity at the inlet and is trapped by the lobes as they rotate. Next, fluid travels around the interior of the casing in the pockets between the lobes and the casing. Finally, the meshing of the lobes forces liquid through the outlet port under pressure.
Lobe pumps are frequently used in food applications because they handle solids without damaging the product. Particle size pumped can be much larger in lobe pumps than in other PD types.
