Mortar pump
Furthermore, observe that:
¾ A new rotor and new stator need to be run in; actual pressure values can only be determined
after the first spraying cycle.
¾ Pump components that do not achieve the specified operating pressure (15 bar) are worn out
and must be replaced.
¾ An operating pressure of 20 bar should not be exceeded.
¾ The minimum conveying distance depends mainly on how the material flows. It is
recommended to check and possibly change the consistency of the material if you exceed an
operating pressure of 20 bar.
¾ To avoid machine breakdowns and excessive wear to pump motor, mixing shaft and pump,
always use original PFT parts, such as e.g.
PFT rotors with agitator
PFT stators
PFT mixing shaft
PFT pressure hoses.
These wearing components are compatible with one another and form a single construction unit
together with the machine.
