Food Processing

The multi-purpose design of the DAE Pumps lobe pumps provides gentle processing of food products without damaging them. The Gala Series Lobe Pumps are chosen by multiple processing plants for use in transferring, waste, mash & peel, centrifuge feed & thickening, and other processes. Our pumps are capable of moving fluids forwards and backward. These non-clogging reliable systems provide worry-free operation with no pulsation, low shear, and can process liquids with high solids.

Wastewater

DAE Pumps lobe pumps provide an even, pulsation-free flow of liquid that makes them ideal for transferring sludge and feeding dewatering equipment. Our lobe pumps performance is the best in typical wastewater applications, including dewatering, primary & secondary sludge, digested & thickened sludge, sludge transfer, and scum & septage. Our pumps handle thick sludge that contains grit, abrasives, and debris often found in wastewater sludges. In dissolved air floatation or DAF applications, we provide systems that can handle excessive air and other floatable debris such as hair and rags through the pump.

Oil & Gas

The reliable DAE Pumps lobe pumps manage a wide range of viscous fluids that contain heavy abrasive solids down to refined, clean material. Our pumps can handle the harshest operating conditions, including induced gas floatation froth, vapor-liquid separation, fuel transfer, tank cleaning, drilling fluids, barge loading, and many other oil and gas applications. The DAE Pumps lobe pump provides a pulsation-free flow of liquid, making it ideal for all oil and gas processing.

DAE Pumps lobe systems meet API 676 requirements.

Gala Lobe Pump Options

Rotor Designs of Lobe Pumps

The design of the lobe pump rotor is important in the performance of the pumps. There are two design of the rotors, a wing, and a rounded design. The rounded lobes are more traditional and can come in a single or multiple lobes. The more lobes on the rotor result in less pump vibration. The wing design can allow for larger size solids to move through the same size lobe pump using the round design. The DAE Pumps lobe pumps are available with multiple options, and we can also build a custom design to meet the needs of your specific requirements.

Unique Metal Designs For Specific Applications

DAE Pumps offers the Gala lobe pumps in a variety of metals for specific uses. For general slurry use, the purpose DAE Pumps uses hardened steel wear plates and treated housing units that offer abrasive resistance and long lifecycle use. For use with chemicals and high corrosion liquids, we recommend the stainless steel option with stainless steel metal wear parts, silicon carbide mechanical seals, and Viton coated lobes. These systems are resistant to swelling when exposed to hydrocarbons. This option is used for chemical processing applications and in petroleum-related industries. The third option is the duplex steel for applications too corrosive for stainless steel, like use with hydroxides and chlorides.

Accessories

These accessories, such as tanks, are designed to integrate seamlessly into the overall pumping process, ensuring efficient material handling and process optimization. Choose from multiple sizes of slurry hoses for the transferring of materials, wireless flow meters for measuring the flow rate in gallons per minute of liquid, and power units for operation. Parts are always in stock and available for immediate shipping to anywhere in the US and the world.

Maintenance and Repair

Regular maintenance is essential for ensuring the optimal performance and longevity of slurry pumps, including electric slurry pumps and submersible slurry pumps. In demanding applications such as mining, dredging, and construction, pumps are often exposed to high viscosity slurries, abrasive materials, and challenging conditions that can accelerate wear and increase the risk of clogging. To address these challenges, modern slurry pumps are constructed with wear resistant materials and specially designed impellers and wear parts, significantly reducing the frequency of repairs and minimizing downtime.

One of the standout features of today’s electric slurry pumps is their easy maintenance. Many models are engineered for quick and straightforward replacement of wear parts and seals, allowing operators to perform routine maintenance with minimal disruption to operation. This not only helps to keep operating costs and energy consumption in check, but also ensures that the pump continues to deliver efficient and reliable performance, even when handling tough materials like fly ash or sediment.

Regular inspection and verification of key pump components—such as the impeller, seals, and pressure systems—are crucial for identifying signs of wear before they develop into major issues. By adjusting the impeller and replacing worn parts as needed, operators can optimize the pump’s efficiency and extend its service life. This proactive approach to maintenance is especially important in industries where downtime can be costly and where the security and reliability of pumping systems are paramount.

In addition to in-house maintenance, many manufacturers offer specialized repair services, spare parts, and expert technical support to help operators maintain the quality and performance of their slurry pumps. When selecting a pump, it’s important to consider not only its suitability for your specific application, but also the maintenance requirements and support services available. By investing in high-quality, wear resistant pumps and adhering to a regular maintenance schedule, operators can reduce operating costs, minimize downtime, and ensure safe, efficient operation across a wide range of industries.

Ultimately, prioritizing maintenance and repair is key to maximizing the productivity and reliability of your slurry pumping systems. Regular verification and prompt response to any issues help maintain the security and efficiency of your operation, allowing you to meet the demands of even the most challenging pumping applications.
