Centrifugal pumps for food & beverage and biopharmaceutical applications

Optimize your liquid transfer processes with pumps that ensure impeccable cleanability and compliance with strict industry standards, ideal for handling everything from delicate syrups to stringent pharmaceutical solutions.

Transfers and Cleans Liquids Efficiently

The PCP – PHP, PRP series from Pierre Guerin, developed with the PACKO Inox Company, offers a range of stainless steel centrifugal pumps designed for stringent hygiene requirements in the food, beverage, and biopharmaceutical industries. These pumps feature an open wheel design and large seal chamber, ensuring optimal turbulence for effective cleaning in place. Applications span from transferring syrups, blood derivatives, and purified water to handling milk, beer, and fruit juices. With capabilities reaching up to 100 m³/h at 11 bar and temperatures up to 250°C with FEP seals, they seamlessly integrate into high-speed, continuous operations. Certified by EHEDG and compliant with ASME BPE, FDA, and USP standards, these pumps support robust processes while minimizing acoustic noise and maintaining low NPSH requirements. Customizable with ATEX models and supported by comprehensive documentation, these pumps reduce maintenance demands through limited spare parts and an efficient CIP system.

Benefits

  • Ensures contamination-free processing with EHEDG-certified, fully cleanable design.
  • Optimizes operational efficiency by reducing downtime through effective CIP performance.
  • Minimizes acoustic disturbances for a quieter work environment.
  • Offers energy-efficient operation, reducing overall power consumption.
  • Complies with stringent food and pharmaceutical standards, aligning with regulatory requirements.
