How the Alfa Laval DuraCirc® Circumferential Piston Pump Works

How the Alfa Laval DuraCirc® Circumferential Piston Pump Works

When it comes to efficient, reliable, and hygienic pumping solutions, the Alfa Laval DuraCirc® Circumferential Piston Pump stands out as a cutting-edge choice. This pump is designed to handle challenging applications in the food, dairy, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries, combining superior performance with exceptional hygiene standards. But what makes it work so effectively? Let’s break it down:

How It Works

1️⃣ Circumferential Piston Technology:

The DuraCirc® pump uses a unique circumferential piston mechanism, where piston-shaped rotors move in precise synchronisation. These rotors create tightly sealed cavities that gently transfer product with high efficiency, ensuring minimal shear and maintaining product integrity.

2️⃣ High-Pressure Capability:

Designed to handle pressures up to 40 bar, the DuraCirc® pump is ideal for high-viscosity products or applications requiring significant force to move liquids through the system.

3️⃣ Smooth and Hygienic Flow:

The internal design eliminates dead zones, ensuring smooth flow and preventing product build-up. This makes it perfect for applications where hygiene is critical, such as dairy, pharmaceuticals, or sensitive food production.

4️⃣ Low Shear, Gentle Product Handling:

The circumferential motion of the rotors ensures low shear during pumping, making the pump ideal for handling delicate products like creams, yoghurts, syrups, and other viscous or aerated products.

5️⃣ Seamless Hygienic Design:

Constructed with high-grade stainless steel and FDA-compliant materials, the DuraCirc® pump supports both CIP (Clean-In-Place) and SIP (Sterilise-In-Place) cleaning processes, ensuring the highest standards of cleanliness and compliance.

6️⃣ Easy Maintenance and Downtime Reduction:

The front-loading single mechanical seal can be accessed quickly for inspection or replacement without dismantling the pump. This reduces downtime and keeps operations running smoothly.

7️⃣ Wide Operating Range:

From low-viscosity liquids to thick, challenging products, the DuraCirc® pump is versatile and capable of handling a wide range of applications.

8️⃣ Efficiency and Durability:

Designed for long-lasting performance, the pump’s high volumetric efficiency minimises energy consumption, reducing operational costs while delivering exceptional reliability.
