Feeding and Storing Molasses

Roper Pumpset

The Roper 2835P is a unique pump capable of handling high viscosity fluids, at high shaft speeds. As a result standard low cost drives can be utilised. The 2835P is a very economic unit ideal for applications such as stock food and molasses. Standard pump construction is cast iron casing, bronze bushes, hardened steel gears and shafts with gland packing.

The pumpsets are assembled on zinc plated and gold passivated mild steel base plates and are fitted with standard Lovejoy couplings.
