At Tapflo UK, we’re on a mission to provide cutting-edge fluid-handling solutions that meet the varied needs of our clients. Our partnership with Nova Rotors, a leading Italian manufacturer of Progressive Cavity and Wobble Pumps, allows us to offer pumps that are not only reliable but also highly customisable for various industrial and hygienic applications.

Advantages of Nova Rotors Pumps

When selecting a pump for your application, Nova Rotors’ pumps offer several distinct advantages:

  • Modular Design for Cost Efficiency: Pumps are designed with modularity in mind, meaning that components such as seals, stators, and rotors are interchangeable across different pump types. This significantly reduces stocking costs and simplifies maintenance, making it easier to keep your operations running smoothly
  • Long-Pitch Rotor Design for Energy Efficiency: The Diamond Series pumps are designed with a long-pitch rotor, reducing energy consumption by up to 20% compared to traditional pumps. This design not only cuts operational costs but also reduces the starting torque, enhancing the overall efficiency of your systems
  • Customisable to Specific Application Needs: Whether you’re handling viscous fluids, abrasive media, or need a pump for a challenging installation environment, Nova Rotors offers customisation options that ensure your pump is perfectly suited to your application. From vertical units for tank immersion to specialised bridge breakers for tough materials, we offer a pump for every need
