TAPFLO has introduced the CTX, a completely new, premium series of high-performance centrifugal pumps which are characterized by their robust design and superior operational reliability and application flexibility.
The series can be adapted to a multitude of applications and process conditions providing greater flexibility with quick and easy upgrade options providing interchangeability of the parts between pump types and sizes, improving maintainability.
A central feature of the Tapflo CTX design is the multi-facet open impeller which can be optimized to suit each medium and application whilst maintaining the ability to transfer viscous products and particularly those with an increased solids content. Another key feature is the option of a double mechanical seal. The seal is specified when hostile media conditions occur i.e. high viscosity content of solids, liquid is gaseous or hazardous. The seal is installed in a back-to-back arrangement in a separate chamber.
“We started work on the CTX pump design because end users were lacking a premium range centrifugal pump that features high efficiency and robust construction with an excellent quality-price ratio. To meet that demand, we have developed the CTX high-performance pump. The pump features low noise and vibration, easy maintenance, and robust construction. The last two factors combined with market leading performance were our main design principles when developing the pump. The CTX is “engineered beyond” to be even more robust than expected for its normal operation. From our point of view, endurance and performance in premium range products are critical. We want to earn on reliability, not spares”, explains Mikołaj Laguna-Horodniczy, Global Marketing Manager at Tapflo Group.
Tapflo’s CTX pumps are available in Hygienic (CTX H) and Industrial executions (CTX I). The pumps are optimized for highly efficient performance over a wide range of operating conditions for several industries. The Tapflo CTX is said to be an excellent solution for typical dairy applications like milk and yogurt transfer. The CTX is also an option for demanding chemical and pharmaceutical applications like the transport of chemicals and ready-made products from storage tanks, containers, and baths., Another application where the CTX fits well is the transfer of various ingredients and products like edible oil, flavour, and juice, as well as many auxiliary operations like the transfer of cleaning liquids, and water.
