BTEI - Hopper pump with bridge breaker in the buffer tank

PERPETUAL MOTION

No stoppages, no bridging: to ensure the feed medium can be optimally pumped at all times, there is a bridge breaker above the screw conveyor in the rectangular hopper of the BTEI hopper pump from SEEPEX. The separately driven rotating paddle keeps the medium in constant motion, thus avoiding the formation of bridges. A further benefit of the range: in order to save space in the processing system, a closed buffer tank can optionally be connected. A separate reservoir is therefore not required.

Description of SEEPEX BTEI Hopper Pump with Bridge Breaker in the Buffer Tank

The SEEPEX BTEI hopper pump with bridge breaker in the buffer tank is a specialized pumping solution designed for handling viscous and non-flowable materials. The hopper pump is equipped with a bridge breaker, which breaks down any lumps or bridges that may form in the buffer tank, ensuring smooth and continuous pumping.

The pump is particularly useful for handling materials like sludge, sewage, and other thick fluids. It features an open hopper design that allows for easy access and cleaning, making it ideal for applications where hygiene is important.

Overall, the SEEPEX BTEI hopper pump with bridge breaker in the buffer tank is a reliable and efficient solution for handling challenging materials, with its unique design allowing for increased productivity and reduced maintenance costs.

Space-saving

The optional integrated buffer tank replaces the separate reservoir tank saving space in the processing system

No bridging

Thanks to the bridge breaker, which consists of a rotating paddle shaft, the medium is in constant motion

Optimum product conveyance

Feed flow to the screw conveyor is guaranteed, even for highly viscous products, thanks to bridge breaker

Flexible control

Flexible adjustment of speed thanks to separate drive system for bridge breaker – irrespective of pump speed

Process control

Optional: Installation of various sensors for processing monitoring, e.g. for checking filling level
