The BTCS range features a feed hopper with a cylindrical/conical compression zone. Highly-viscous conveying media with a low degree of flowability are fed to the conveying elements rotor and stator through the auger feed screw on the coupling rod. Optimum filling of the conveying chamber is achieved through the priming pressure generated in the compression zone. The pumps of the BTCS range are optionally equipped with the open, service-friendly joints or with the proven, closed pin joints.
