Even high viscosity pumps come to their application limits very fast, when trying to pump high-viscous, non-flowable substances. The newly developed drum emptying system with follower plate from Lutz exceeds these limits and the infinitely variable operation enables particularly gentle pumping of pastes and non-flowable substances in the food, pharmaceutical and industrial sectors.

Features/benefits:
– complete system is supplied on a mobile trolley, ensures maximum mobility and flexibility
– ergonomic design simplifies the operation for the user
– simple and convenient control system
– manual, infinitely variable control
– FDA-compliant hydraulics
– conveying speed is infinitely variable
– containers are emptied almost pulsation-free
– sealing lips made of EPDM, FKM, PTFE
– only a small amount remains in the container after emptying, cost-effective and environmentally friendly
– pump is protected against dry running using an integrated sensor
– emptying of cylindrical drums and conical containers (with or without drum inliner)
– adjustable drum retaining clamps secure the containers when the follower plate is removed
– Tri-Clamp connections, fast and cost-effective cleaning
– follower plate is operated with a 3A-approved free of bacteria traps and thread-free pump
– mobile trolley, hydraulic unit and follower plate are made of polished stainless steel
– flow rates up to 120 l/min
– 2,12 m total height of the system when retracted
– weight of the mobile unit 140 kg (without pump)
– system can also be used without the follower plate as a pure, mobile lifting stand together with the pump

Examples showing various application fields:
– lipsticks, mascara
– ice cream, tomato paste, infant food
– ointments, fats, colours
