Distributor of High Viscosity Pumps Applications

As the density and thickness of a fluid increases, it becomes increasingly difficult to flow and pump with a centrifugal pump. Typically the thicker the fluid a different technology is required being positive displacement pumps, as with a centrifugal pump the thicker the fluid is the more it recirculates within the pump head. Pumps which handle high viscosity typically have larger inlets, run slower, and are consequently more efficient with such fluids than a centrifugal pump. Some high viscosity liquids require careful handling to prevent changes to its consistency, ensure parts of the liquid do not separate out and that solids remain in suspension.
