Hopper Pump
Our Hopper Pump is a specialised solution designed to handle substances with high viscosities and significant solids content, surpassing the capabilities of standard Progressive Cavity Pumps in processing challenging liquids. Featuring Auger Feed Screws, this EHEDG-certified Hopper Pump efficiently handles industrial and food-grade liquids. With options including close-coupled or bearing housing supported variations, this pump delivers increased versatility. Additionally, the standard rectangular shape of the hoppers is customisable to suit your specific installation requirements.
Typical applications for our Hopper Pump:
- Sewage Sludge
- Water Treatment
- Industrial Sludge
- Chemical
- Pulp & Paper
- Agriculture
- Petro-chemical
- Marine
- ATEX available for use in hazardous environments
- Patented pin-type joint for simple maintenance and reliable performance
- Hydraulic balancing of the joints makes it more resistant to the pump body pressure
- Ample suction sections allows for superior driving capacity and handling of viscous substances
- Anchor down baseplate
- Various drive shaft options available dependant on operational needs
- Outlet pipe manufactured from a range of material options
- Designed to facilitate convoy of the product to the hydraulic section
- Abrasion-resistant rotors and stators
- Various seal systems available including packing seal with our without flushing
- Connection via the pin to the drive or the bearing housing enables reversible operation

DHE Model
- DHS Model: features a rectangular hopper and oversized auger for highly viscous materials with up to 28% solids concentration that do not bridge
- DHP Model: has a wide throat hopper with a bridge breaker shaft and auger, suitable for materials that tend to bridge or have solids, like fruits and doughs
- DHB Model: has a wide throat hopper with a double bridge breaker shaft and enlarged auger, suitable for highly viscous materials with up to 35% solids concentration that have a tendency to bridge
- DHSB Model: similar to the DHS Model, this model is fitted with a special “B” Module for non-flowing materials with solids concentrations up to 40%, beneficial for products that tend to plasticise
- DHS-T Model: similar to the DHS Model, also featuring the special “B” Module
- DHE Model: compact design, trolley mounted and designed for use in the wine industry, suitable for pumping crushed grapes with or without stems. Safety features and level probes can be added to protect against dry-running
