2NSH multi screw pump: Easy to clean and sterilize
The 2NSH is made of AISI 316L stainless steel and polished to international standards. Therefore, it is easy to clean (CIP - “cleaning-in-place process”) and can even be sterilized (SIP - “sterilization-in-place process”). Cleaning can be carried out on the NOTOS® 2NSH without an auxiliary system. With conventional CIP cleaning, an additional pump is often necessary to keep the system clean. With the 2NSH, no other pump is required. It works as a feed pump and also as a CIP pump during the cleaning process. You do not need a bypass, valves or additional pipes. There is no contact between the rotating delivery elements. Thus, the pump speed can be greatly increased, and the fluid rate quickly reaches the necessary value.

FAQ multi screw pumps
Multi screw pumps are particularly suitable for the continuous conveyance of low-viscosity to high-viscosity media in applications with high requirements for a uniform, low-pulsation conveyance process. They are used in a wide range of industrial applications, including the oil and gas industry in the mid- / downstream sectors, shipping and shipbuilding, and power generation. In addition, multi screw pumps are used in the chemical and petrochemical industries, in the food, beverage, cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries, and in tank farms and terminal operations. They also make a reliable contribution to safe and efficient plant operation in lubrication and control oil systems, for example, in hydroelectric power stations.
NOTOS® multi screw pumps offer numerous advantages for demanding industrial applications. They are characterised by smooth, almost pulsation-free operation and run quietly and with minimal vibration. High efficiency combined with low NPSHr ensures energy-efficient and safe operation, even under difficult suction conditions. In addition, NOTOS® multi screw pumps enable excellent handling of highly viscous media and provide gentle, shear-free pumping. The robust design contributes to a long service life and low maintenance requirements. Depending on the version, the pumps are also suitable for hygienic applications and are available in hygienic designs, for example, as 2NSH, CIP and SIP compatible.
Multi screw pumps are suitable for pumping low to high viscosity media as well as lubricating and non-lubricating liquids. Depending on the design and type, both clean and shear-sensitivemedia, as well as corrosive or abrasive media, can be reliably pumped, as can liquids with low solid content. Even media containing gas can be pumped safely, depending on the application-specific design. Typical examples include crude oil, heavy oil, heating oil, lubricants, fuels, bitumen and other liquid or viscous media.
Depending on the type and application-specific design, multi screw pumps cover a very wide range of performance and applications. The flow ranges from a few m³/h to around 3,000 m³/h, while operating pressures in low-pressure applications can reach around 160 bar. In addition, multi screw pumps are suitable for a very wide viscosity range, extending up to several hundred thousand cSt. They also offer a high degree of flexibility in temperature: Depending on the choice of materials and seals, media temperatures rangingfrom around −20 °C to over 300 °C are possible.
Yes, multi screw pumps are specially designed for continuous operation and continuous pumping processes. They deliver consistent pumping performance under fluctuating operating conditions and are therefore ideal for supply and transfer applications.

Yes, multi screw pumps have good self-priming properties and are suitable for applications with changing fill levels or difficult suction conditions.
Whether multi screw pumps can run dry depends on the type of pump and its design. NOTOS® 2NSH and NOTOS® 4NS pumps can run dry for short periods, depending on their design and if they’re only used for a limited time. On the other hand, NOTOS® 3NS and NOTOS® 2NS pumps are not suitable for dry running and must be lubricated by the pumped medium during operation. An application-specific design is crucial to prevent damage and ensure safe operation.
Various drive options are available for multi screw pumps, enabling flexible adaptation to different operating conditions and system designs. Depending on the application, the pumps can be operated with a directly coupled electric motor with a fixed speed or with an electric motor in combination with a frequency converter control.
