High Pressure Pump HPP-STP SERIES

Desmet Ballestra High Pressure Pump (HPP) belongs to the last generation of reciprocating
positive displacement multi-plungers pump, specifically designed to pump, at high pressure,
concentrated slurry and abrasive fluids in surfactants and detergents powder production plants.

The High Pressure Pump model takes advantage of the outstanding experience of Desmet
Ballestra in the design and supply of tailor-made solutions for the surfactants and detergents
industries with installation in hundreds of complete plants and process units.

The high-quality material and robust and compact design of the components, suitable for severe
operating conditions, provide long lifetime, high efficiency, low maintenance and trouble-free
operation.
The design of the pump allows easy accessibility to all components without special tools.

Operating Principle
Reciprocating multi plungers pump with delivery design pressure up to 100 bar in continuous operation.

Flow Rate Capacity

The HPP is designed to cover a wide range of flow rates controlled by variable frequency drive,
capable to match any Customers' requirement.
 HPP STP SERIES
Specifically designed for pumping highly
abrasive fluids in detergent industry
The pumps feature three or six pumping elements, driven by a crankshaft mechanism provided
with forced-type lubrication with independent motor and indirect cooling system to ensure the
best operational reliability.

Desmet Ballestra HPP is designed for maximum performance and efficiency as well as minimum
maintenance cost by means of the following main features:

· Plungers in SS 316 hardened by proprietary coating treatment

· High precision single valve

· Double packing with water flushing system

· Monobloc cylinder design for easy and fast accessibility to all internal components

· Gear reducer having Agma factor >2 to ensure lower operating temperature with consequent
lower wearing and tearing reduction.

SKID MOUNTED SOLUTION

Desmet Ballestra has developed a proprietary skid mounted solution fully pre-assembled and tested at workshop,
ready for in field start up. The proposed skid includes:

· Slurry filtering devices

· High shear in-line mixer
· High pressure pump and relevant accessories and instruments

The proposed solution ensures a constant discharge pressure and a finely dispersed slurry feeding to the spray dryer.
