Unibloc Pumps FAQ
What are Unibloc pumps?
Unibloc manufactures sanitary positive displacement pumps and fluid-handling equipment for hygienic and demanding process applications. Their pumps are designed for applications where cleanability, gentle product handling, reliability, and process efficiency are important.
What types of pumps does Unibloc manufacture?
Unibloc offers rotary lobe pumps, gear pumps, sanitary pumps, drum pumps, and other specialized fluid-handling equipment for hygienic and industrial processes.
What industries use Unibloc pumps?
Unibloc pumps are commonly used in food and beverage processing, dairy production, pharmaceutical manufacturing, cosmetics, personal care, biotechnology, chemical processing, and other sanitary applications.
What is a rotary lobe pump?
A rotary lobe pump is a positive displacement pump that uses rotating lobes to move fluid through the pump. The design provides consistent flow and gentle product handling, making it useful for many sanitary and high-viscosity applications.
What are Unibloc pumps commonly used for?
Common applications include transferring dairy products, beverages, sauces, syrups, oils, creams, personal care products, pharmaceutical products, chemicals, and other process fluids.
Can Unibloc pumps handle high-viscosity products?
Yes. Positive displacement pump technology is particularly effective for moving thicker products that may be difficult for conventional centrifugal pumps to handle efficiently.
Can Unibloc pumps handle shear-sensitive products?
Yes. Properly selected Unibloc pumps can provide gentle product handling for applications where excessive shear could negatively affect texture, consistency, or overall product quality.
Are Unibloc pumps suitable for sanitary processing?
Yes. Unibloc offers pumping equipment specifically designed for sanitary and hygienic applications where cleanability, product integrity, and contamination control are important.
Can Unibloc pumps be used in food and beverage processing?
Yes. Unibloc pumps can be used to transfer a variety of food and beverage products, including products with higher viscosities or applications requiring gentle handling.
Can Unibloc pumps be used in dairy processing?
Yes. Sanitary positive displacement pumps are well suited for many dairy processing applications where hygienic design, cleanability, and gentle product handling are required.
Can Unibloc pumps be used with clean-in-place systems?
Depending on the pump and system configuration, Unibloc equipment can be incorporated into clean-in-place, or CIP, processes that allow pumps and piping to be cleaned without extensive disassembly.
How do I know which Unibloc pump is right for my application?
Proper selection depends on required flow, discharge pressure, product viscosity, temperature, solids content, shear sensitivity, sanitary requirements, cleaning procedures, and operating conditions.
What are signs that a Unibloc pump may need service?
Common warning signs include reduced flow, inconsistent pressure, unusual noise, excessive vibration, product leakage, increased operating temperatures, or declining process performance.
What maintenance do Unibloc pumps require?
Routine maintenance may include inspecting seals, bearings, rotors, gears, lubrication where applicable, and other wear components. Sanitary applications may also require regular inspection of product-contact components.
Can Unibloc pumps be repaired or rebuilt?
In many cases, yes. Worn seals, bearings, rotors, gears, and other components may be repaired or replaced to restore pump performance and extend equipment life.
