Rotary Lobe Pumps

Industrial Pumps Australia offers high-performance Rotary Lobe Pumps, designed for precise, reliable fluid transfer in a variety of industries. These positive displacement pumps are ideal for food processing, pharmaceuticals, wastewater treatment, and chemical applications, ensuring gentle handling of sensitive materials while maintaining efficiency.

  • Rotary Lobe Pumps are positive displacement pumps designed for the gentle, reliable transfer of viscous, shear-sensitive, or particle-laden fluids. With synchronised rotating lobes and a non-contacting internal design, these pumps move product smoothly and consistently with minimal pulsation or damage. Their sanitary-grade design and easy maintenance make them a popular choice in hygienic and industrial applications where cleanliness, durability, and performance are essential.


    KEY BENEFITS OF ROTARY LOBE PUMPS:

    • Non-contacting lobe rotors – minimise wear and contamination risk

    • Gentle pumping action – ideal for shear-sensitive fluids or products with suspended solids

    • Self-priming and bi-directional – flexible in installation and operation

    • Easy access and maintenance – CIP (Clean-In-Place) and SIP (Steam-In-Place) capable

    • High efficiency at low speeds – excellent for continuous or batch processing
