Type KL-RS

WANGEN silo pumps / Type KL-RS

The WANGEN Type KL-RS pump is a hopper silo pump for conveying and metering dewatered sewage sludge with a dry substance content (DS) of 15 to 45%. This makes the Type KL-RS silo discharge pump an indispensable core unit in modern sewage plants.

Technical properties

  • Flexible drive selection
  • Double, maintenance-free shaft seal
  • Rotor/stator quick-change facility
  • Fully developed, robust universal joint
  • Feeding screw equipped with bridge breaker

Applications

WANGEN Type KL-RS pumps are used as silo discharge pumps in modern sewage plants. Dewatered sewage sludge is stored temporarily in buffer tanks (upright silos) with capacities of up to 500 m³. From here it is conveyed by the pumps, which are flange-fitted to the bottom of the silos, in automatic 24-hour dosing mode to a drying plant or an incineration plant for example.

Advantages and features

  • Direct flange-fitting of the pump to the bottom of the silo
  • Split frame design for installation in confined conditions
  • Modular design with short downtimes for maintenance and repairs
  • Slide valves at the end of the hopper tunnel enable inspection and monitoring work to be carried out without having to dismantle the pump
  • Shut-off slide valves enable changes of rotor/stator when the silo is full
