Overview

The high performance hopper feed pumps KL-RÜ, KL-RQ, KL-RS and KL-R Triplex are our first choice when it comes to the conveyance of dewatered sludge with a high solid content.

WANGEN high performance hopper feed pumps are ideal when conveying demanding products, pumping at large heights and distances and when high dosage accuracy is required. They are utilised in numerous industries, such as waste water technology, shipping and machine construction, as well as paper, chemical, and food processing.

Numerous versions and sizes as well as a modular pump construction ensure that you are able to obtain a pumping solution that is tailored to your individual application.

Overview KL-RÜ Range KL-RQ Range KL-RS Range KL-R Triplex

Pumps of the KL-RÜ series are built according to our proven modular principle. This allows high flexibility, low spare parts inventory, and minimum downtimes for repairs. Other features include: sophisticated and robust cardan joints with screw conveyors, fibers do not get wrapped around the joint and the joint connectors thanks to the effective protection device. Using an attachment hopper as an extension is possible. The KL-RÜ is available in various shapes, pump set sizes and rotor / stator geometries (S, L, and H shapes), so that the flexible choice of drive is the only logical consequence.

WANGEN pumps of the type KL-RQ have a transverse feed device for integrated bridge building and a collecting vessel for continuous feeding. They were designed for conveying dewatered sludge with a high content of dry matter (TS) ranging from 15% to 45%. High dosing accuracy even at low speeds, optimal downtimes even with difficult media. And a consistent dosing facility, as an intermittent input is compensated by a buffer volume in the collecting vessel. An extension through the feed hopper is possible as well as customized sizes.

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. The KL-RS 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.

Pumps of the KL-R Triplex series impress with their consistent dosing option, as an intermittent input is compensated by the buffer volume in the collecting container. The small space requirement and large receiving vessel are a result of the low construction and the large volume of the container. The receiving vessel is available in three standard sizes (1 m³/h - 10 m³/h) - special sizes can be manufactured upon request. The KL-R Triplex series is able to convey media from chamber filter presses, screen belt presses or decanters to dryers, silos or storage areas, or other feeding jobs.
