This defoaming/degassing pump, with an interlocked vacuum pump, extrac
dissolved gas in liquid with surprising efficiency.
Degasses liquid mechanically without using any chemical additive such as hydrazine
not cause contamination, and greatly reduces maintenance costs.
We also manufacture pumps that meet sanitary specifications.
Principle of degassing (PAT.)
DP
type
When pumping liquid flows through
part of the pump, the dissolved ga
from the liquid by decompression,
liquid mixture is fed to the inducer
The liquid in the gas-liquid mixture
periphery and stratified by rotation
gas accumulates in the central are
same time.
ASP
The gas remaining in the liquid is f
type
liquid, as such liquid stratum is bro
vacuum.
The gas is then drawn out by the v
impeller.
Any remaining liquid in the gas dra
pump is separated by the impeller,
intake side of the inducer.

The outstanding degassing power is evident by the reduction of dissolved oxygen fr
intake side (raw water at 20 degree C) to 0.5mg/L or less at the outlet side.

The Nissyoku Excellent Food Machinery/Material Award was established by the
Co. Ltd., in 1998, aimed at the development of machinery and robots supportin
and materials industry, and to reward and show appreciation for their contribu
being the 19th time that the award was presented. The target products include
machinery/robots, intermediate materials/sub-intermediate materials, and the
them, which are useful to the quality improvement of food products and suppo
such as food product-related machinery/robots/apparatus and their software, i
materials/sub-intermediate materials for packaging containers, food additives,
ingredients, and functional raw materials. The awards are decided by a selecti
up of representatives in various food industries and academics who discuss wi
other in reaching decisions.
The company's "Defoaming/Degassing Pump ASP Type" enables the instant an
removal of wasteful foam, bubbles and gas occurring in the food product manu
and it has been credited with contributing to the improvement of product qual
efficiency, which led to it winning the 19th Nissyoku Excellent Food Machinery/

YOKOTA's proposal: Troubled with stubborn foam and bubbles ? ........ The
solution to the problem.
What if the ASP type pump, originally designed for degassing, is
applied to defoaming ?
As expected, the defoaming tests have proven excellent defoaming
performance as indicated below.

II. Examples of defoaming test
Defoaming test equipment (ASP-0310 3.7kW-2900min-1 / Water ring vacuum pump
Test results with various kinds of liquid are shown in Fig.1-Fig.3.
Curves on the left side of each figure show the relation between flow rate and total
depending on gas amounts (0%, 50%, 60%, 70%).
A curve on the right side of each figure shows the relation between the gas amount
and the gas amount (%) at the outlet side.
Calculation of defoaming efficiency is as follows:
For example, if the gas amount is 70% at the intake side and 20% at the outlet side
Defoaming efficiency = 1 - (Gas amount at outlet side / Gas amount
at intake side) = 71.4%
Fig.1 Defoaming of normal water
The graph indicates removal of approx. 95-98% of foam (gas bubbles) from normal
Fig.2 Defoaming of green tea
The graph indicates removal of approx. 92-95% of foam from green tea in a conditi
(tea powder dissolved at the ratio of 0.55g powder/80cc water).
Fig.3 Defoaming of detergent
The graph indicates removal of approx. 67-72% of foam from detergent dissolved in
Despite the propensity of detergent to produce large quantities of difficult-to-remov
equipment performed well.
The above test results prove our degassing equipment's surprising defoaming effici
capability of continuous processing.
Moreover, YOKOTA Degassing Equipment enables remarkable cost reducti
various foaming liquids.
No clogging problems like that with membrane type equipment, no troublesome
and the pumps easily meet sanitary specifications.
Time required to eliminate foam and bubbles has been shortened, making it unn
tank for stabilization of liquid.
The stirring operation of the built-in impeller simultaneously provides favorable r
homogenization and reduced particle size.
With the self-priming and pressurized discharge capabilities, all processes includ
defoaming and transfer of liquid are achieved in this single, compact pump, unlik
which require installation of several components.
Use of YOKOTA Degassing Equipment greatly reduces costs of liquid processing.
Equipment suitable for defoaming relatively large amounts of liquid is also available
