The standard of hygiene required in food processing plants is incredibly high; because of this food companies require water at high pressure for cleaning and washdown. Often corrosive CIP liquids such as caustic nitric or peracetic acid are used as part of this process which can often lead to problems with conventional pumps. However Verder’s range of Verdermag mag-drive pumps is able to handle corrosive media and bulk concentrated aggressive cleaning fluids. Their robust construction makes them ideal for the purpose, plus they are available in a range of materials.
Verder can also provide tailor-made booster sets to increase the water pressure to the required level. These systems are designed to match an individual’s specifications giving you complete confidence that your requirements will be met.
Many plants require the transfer of oil, whether for frying or cooling, which can be a particular problem if the oil is hot. Naturally the key concern is for the workforce: leakage or spillage of hot oil could cause injury. The solution is to use pumps that do not have seals and have total containment; the ATEX approved Verdermag range is ideal for this.
The food industry requires accurate and repeatable dosing for its products, in this instance Verder’s range of peristaltic pumps, Verderflex, provides a quality solution. It has been proven to be an excellent dosing pump for both accuracy and repeatability and even has an EHEDG food-grade hose to make it safe to use within the food industry. In addition to dosing, the pump range is suitable for the removal of waste water or effluent due to its ability to handle solids and viscous media.
For general purpose pumping, including sump drainage the Verder S range of self-priming pumps is ideal. The pumps are able to handle solids and are abrasion resistant.
