Continuous scraper cleaning: mechanical screen clearing without interrupting production
Filtration threshold from 60 to 120 microns: dependable retention of solid contaminants
Capacity from 5 to 100 cubic meters per hour: three standardized sizes for plant layouts
Downstream machinery protection: prolongs service life of high pressure pumps and nozzles

Engineering Heritage of Georges Brière and Industrial Pump Innovations

The Georges Brière SA engineering manufacturing facility was founded in 1927 in France, developing profound technical expertise in precision metal machining and fluid machinery design over a century of industrial operation.

In 1972, the enterprise integrated its mechanical capabilities with Broquet pumps, establishing dedicated development programs for positive displacement pumping solutions handling viscous, dense, and chemically aggressive fluids.

Operating from its specialized Argenteuil plant near Paris, the company utilizes advanced multi-axis CNC machine tools, metallurgical testing laboratories, and comprehensive hydrodynamic test benches to assemble and test heavy-duty gear pumps and self-cleaning filtration systems.

Operating Principle of MC Rotors for Sugar Crystal Preservation

The specialized Broquet KMC series pump represents a premier engineering solution for the global sugar refining sector, operating across cane mills, beet processing plants, and refineries worldwide.

Its decisive mechanical distinction is the patented MC rotor geometry, specifically tailored for the gentle transfer of massecuite and magma slurries containing high sugar crystal fractions.

The calculated rotor mesh exhibits minimal contact area and optimized wiping clearance, eliminating mechanical fracturing or surface abrasion of delicate sugar crystals.

This hydrodynamic design maintains uniform crystal size distribution, avoids slurry overheating, and prevents product caramelization.

Hydraulic Efficiency of Six-Tooth X Rotors in Molasses Processing

Broquet KX series industrial gear pumps incorporate an innovative six-tooth X rotor profile that delivers an optimal balance between compact equipment envelope dimensions and high volumetric discharge capacity.

Engineered for pumping hot molasses, syrups, and refinery run-offs, the KX line accommodates operating viscosities ranging from 100 to 100 000 cPo under discharge pressures reaching 20 bar.

The smooth meshing action of the six precision teeth creates a uniform displacement stream with exceptionally low hydraulic pressure pulsations, ensuring sustained volumetric efficiency and long mechanical life even during fluctuating process temperatures or accidental crystal presence.

Herringbone BF and Scraping BB Pump Architectures for Chemical Plants

For chemical processing and petrochemical installations, Broquet manufactures BF and BB series rotary pumps tailored to specific rheological fluid profiles.

The BF line utilizes double helical herringbone F rotors with rolling tooth contact, ensuring smooth laminar delivery of low-viscosity solutions, chemical intermediates, and synthetic lubricants with minimal sound emission.

For highly viscous thixotropic polymers, resins, heavy adhesives, and bitumen, the BB series provides straight wiping lobe rotors.

The scraping tooth geometry continuously wipes internal chamber surfaces, preventing viscous polymer adhesion, eliminating line clogging, and sustaining reliable fluid throughput.

Continuous Self-Cleaning FBE Filtration for Downstream Plant Protection

To protect downstream high-pressure pumps, heat exchangers, spray nozzles, and membrane separation units, Broquet manufactures FBE continuous mechanical self-cleaning filters, including F10, F20, and F40 models.

The filtration apparatus provides solid-liquid phase separation across an automated duty cycle with filtration ratings from 60 to 120 microns. An internal mechanical scraper cleans the stainless screen basket without interrupting mainstream fluid flow or discharging process fluid.

Automated purge valves periodically evacuate concentrated solids, eliminating pressure drops and extending the operating life of sensitive process machinery.
