Technical Specifications
Operating Principle
Hygienic centrifugal pumps operate based on the standard centrifugal principle.
The stainless steel impeller, driven by a motor, imparts kinetic energy to the fluid. As the fluid moves from the center toward the outer diameter, velocity energy is converted into pressure energy within the volute casing, ensuring continuous flow.
Thanks to the hygienic design:
- Dead zones are prevented
- Surfaces are easy to clean
- Sealing elements comply with hygiene standards
- Full compatibility with CIP/SIP systems is ensured

In pump selection;
- product viscosity,
- hygiene standards,
- CIP/SIP temperature values,
- risk of foam formation,
- product sensitivity,
- process pressure
should be taken into consideration. Incorrect selection may lead to hygiene risks, product loss, and cleaning issues.
