Specific Construction
Fristam shear pumps were developed based on our proven centrifugal pumps of the FP series. In place of their impeller, a rotor-and-stator system draws inhomogeneous products through shearing clearances of just 0.3 mm at tip speeds of up to 38 m/s. As a result of extremely high flow rates in the rotor-and-stator system, and the high shear rates of up to 125,000 1/s, multiphase products are blended with supreme efficiency.

Anatomy of a Better Blend
The FS Shear Blender uses an intermeshed rotor/stator system to disperse particles into liquid. The rotating teeth pass within 0.5 mm of the stationary teeth at high speeds, causing a tremendous amount of turbulence. As centrifugal force pushes the product towards the outlet, the intensity of this turbulence ensures that all product must be thoroughly blended to exit the FS.
Front Loading Internal Seal2
FPR Series centrifugal pumps reduce maintenance time and effort. Designed with a front-loading seal, the FPR allows production personnel to service the pump in place—processors no longer need to pull pumps out of line to change seals, single or double.
