Mobile pumps make industry more flexible – Lutz Pumpen

LUTZ Pumpen is set to present the B70H eccentric screw pump and the B3 battery-powered drum pump at the Pumps & Valves 2025 trade fair in Dortmund.

Bringing maximum flexibility and rapid operational readiness, especially in changing or unpredictable working environments, mobile pumping solutions are assuming increasing importance in industrial settings.

Responding to this development, Lutz Pumpen will present the B70H eccentric screw pump, which can be flexibly mounted on a transport trolley, and the battery-powered B3 Battery drum pump at the Pumps & Valves 2025 trade fair in Dortmund from 19 to 20 February 2025 (stand 5-L09 in hall 005).

The B70 series eccentric screw pumps are used in industrial applications to pump watery to highly viscous liquids with up to 100 000 mPas and media containing solids and shear-sensitive media.

This can range from diesel and oil in the raw materials industry, to caramel and pasta products in the food industry and toothpaste and creams in the cosmetics industry.

“The B70 series pumps are characterised by a gentle and low-pulsation pumping action, which ensures that the structure and properties of sensitive food products, pharmaceuticals, biochemicals and polymers remain unchanged during transport”, explains Takumi Nasu, head of development at Lutz-Pumpen GmbH.

The pumps work with an eccentric screw that rotates inside a static housing, thereby dividing the medium across individual chambers and conveying it along these chambers. This gentle pumping process only subjects the medium to a low mechanical load, which minimises the danger of shear stress.

A consistent flow rate without pressure peaks and dead times

The B70 series eccentric screw pumps also guarantee low levels of pulsation during operation. “The flow rate is constant and there are no sudden pressure peaks. This is advantageous not only for the stability of the transported medium but also minimises the dead time during which no liquid is pumped”, says Nasu.

With a three-phase motor producing up to 900 revolutions per minute, the pumps achieve a flow rate of up to 120 l/min, a delivery head of up to 6 bar and are suitable for immersion depths between 500 mm and 2,500 mm. It is also possible to measure the flow rate indirectly via the speed of the rotor.
