Positive displacement pump delivers maximum efficiency
SPX FLOW’s APV brand has introduced the APV DW+ positive displacement pump, the next generation of its renowned DW Series which delivers reliability with precision and gentle handling for shear-sensitive products and liquids containing particles.
Engineered to optimise the processing of high-value, high-viscosity products, the DW+ pump portfolio offers 27 different models and serves diverse industries, including food and beverage, personal care, pet food and industrial applications like paint and resins.
The APV DW+ pump’s pulsation-free, low-shear design protects downstream equipment by minimising vibration, noise and pressure surges. By doing so, it maximises operational efficiency, reduces downtime and safeguards product integrity.
The APV DW+ pump regulates flow with a unique piston rotor design, reducing vibration, noise and pressure surges to protect downstream equipment and enhance operational stability.
The pump offers flexible processing with interchangeable piston or bi-lobe rotors for pumping different types of fluids, along with optional features, such as a rectangular inlet and thermal jacket, catering to specialised applications.
Thanks to an integrated pressure relief valve, the APV DW+ enhances safety by automatically releasing excess pressure, reducing the need for additional pressure-regulating devices and minimising maintenance costs.
The pump reduces energy consumption through its minimal internal clearance design, allowing the use of smaller, more efficient motors, which leads to cost savings. While the long sealing path of the piston rotor minimises shear stress, preserving the texture, viscosity and sensory attributes of high-value, sensitive products.
Jet Liu, Global Product Manager, Nutrition and Health Hygenic Pumps at SPX Flow commented: “We are proud to launch the latest innovation from APV, the DW+ pump. It is engineered to meet the evolving needs of modern processing operations and we are proud to introduce this proven and continuously evolving pump technology to the market so customers can experience its value and benefit from APV’s legacy of flexibility, quality and reliability.”
