Hopper feed pump Type KL-RS
Pumps of the KL-RS series are hopper silo pumps for conveying and dosing dewatered sewage sludge with a high-solids content (DS) of 15% to 45%. These features make silo discharge pumps of the type KL-RS an indispensable core aggregate in modern sewage treatment plants.

- insensitive to foreign matter
- maintenance-friendly
- modular design for short downtimes
- direct flange-fitting of the pump to the bottom of the silo
- double, maintenance-free shaft seal
- rotor/stator quick-change facility
- slide valves at the end of the hopper tunnel enable inspection and monitoring work to be carried out without having to dismantle the pump
- split frame design for installation in confined conditions
- shut-off slide valves enable changes of rotor/stator when the silo is full
Fields of Application
The KL-RS hopper silo pump series processes media with a wide range of viscosities and delivers a good flow rate, even with media containing abrasive and fibrous additives. The slide valve design at the end of the hopper tunnel allows inspection and monitoring work of the hopper - without the need to disassemble the pump. Also, gate valves allow the rotors / stators to be exchanged, even if the silo is full.
