ROVATTI SLURRY
PTO DRIVE PUMPS
Rovatti TL slurry pumps are
high-pressure slurry pumps with a
unique “bolt on” chopper system
The standard pump features a high efficiency
open-vane impeller with an interchangeable
wear ring and fixed cutting blade to handle
all but the very toughest of straw, hay or other
difficult residuals. For these conditions, the
chopper unit can be simply bolted to the
pump where it is driven by the existing pump
shaft, enabling it to handle virtually any
waste products requiring chopping.
A number of additional features
make these the most versatile and
reliable units on the market:
• Special permanently lubricated
mechanical seal for longer life
• Over-sized bearings
• Lubricated chopper shaft bearings
• Chopper shaft shear-pin to reduce risk of
damage to the shaft and impeller
• A range of four tractor pto pumps and
four bare-shaft pumps with flows from
105-1000 gpm
• Replaceable wear ring
• 540 rpm or 1000 rpm
• Finest |> |- ast
The pump is mounted on a heavy-duty
wheeled cart with pto shaft,
6” quick-action suction fittings and
4” discharge fittings as standard.
