People who are familiar with single screw pumps should know that they are very suitable for use in some industries with high hygiene levels, such as the medical industry, food and beverage industry, etc. So, what are the precautions when using single screw pumps in the food industry?

1. The most important aspect of using a single screw pump in the food industry is cleanliness, so it is necessary to clean and disinfect the pump when it is put into use.

2. If a single screw pump is placed in a humid environment for a long time or used in a humid environment, it is prone to corrosion. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to corrosion prevention, and if corrosion or rust occurs, it must be dealt with in a timely manner. Parts that need to be replaced should be replaced in a timely manner.

3. After being left idle for a long time, the single screw pump may produce sedimentation or dry lumps when transporting the medium, which also requires cleaning. Please refer to the manual provided by the manufacturer for specific details.

4. Because the stator of a single screw pump undergoes thermal and chemical reactions during cleaning, it is important to start the pump 2-3 times per minute to ensure that the cavity between the stator and rotor of the pump is thoroughly cleaned.

5. The lower part of the motor is equipped with an upper thrust bearing, which has grooves for dry cooling and is paired with a stainless steel thrust disc for bearing the axial force of the water pump.
