Advanced innovation in food pump technology provides high suction capacity to handle viscous products, providing significant advantages over alternative technologies.
Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Solutions (WMFTS) will showcase its diverse product line for food and beverage applications at the California Food Producers Food Processing Expo. CLFP 2023 will be held at the SAFE Credit Union Convention Center in Sacramento, California on February 14-15, 2023.
Used at many stages of food and beverage processing; from unloading raw material to a storage tank, through transfer to a mixer/agitator/reactor/cooking vessel, to final transfer to the filling line, Certa Sine pumps maintain efficiency and increase. This advanced innovation in food pump technology provides high suction capacity to handle viscous products, providing significant advantages over alternative technologies. Unlike traditional pumps with rotors that pass through the fluid, Certa’s sinusoidal rotor gently transports fluid through the pump to dramatically reduce shear. The pump uses 50% less energy than rotary lobe or circumferential pumps with exceptional performance for all applications, including handling highly viscous products. With 3A certification as standard, users can rest assured that even chocolate, cheese curds, berries, sauces and pie fillings are pumped through without degradation.
The Aflex FaBLINE hose, also on display, is a food grade flexible hose developed to meet the latest hygiene standards. Patented PTFE lined hose with standard 316 stainless steel braid ensures efficient product transfer and handling while providing longer life than other rubber hoses. In addition to benefits such as increased life, reduced maintenance, less clean-in-place (CIP) downtime and reduced processing costs, FaBLINE offers excellent coating flexibility in a kink-resistant design. which requires less force to bend than competing smoothbore products. Additionally, the product carries up to twice the flow rate of similarly sized convoluted distribution tubing, providing a faster, more efficient treatment solution.
