Hygienic centrifugal pump for beverage applications

Ensure gentle handling and efficient transfer of sensitive liquids with a centrifugal pump designed to maintain hygienic conditions and optimize energy use in your production process.

Handles Hygienic Pumping and Liquid Process Challenges

The GEA Hilge TP series, including models like the TP 3050 Super and TP 3050 3-A, is designed by GEA for reliable and hygienic liquid handling across industries. It features a robust single-stage centrifugal design for gentle product handling in processes like beverage and dairy production, as well as pharmaceutical applications requiring stringent hygiene. Engineered for flexibility, these pumps can operate continuously with energy-efficient motors, reducing energy consumption. The spiral housing, crafted from deep-drawn CrNiMo rolled steel, ensures corrosion resistance and optimal cleanability, aligning with EHEDG standards. Capable of handling flow rates up to 240 m³/h and pressure levels up to 16 bar, these pumps are ideal for transferring a wide range of liquids from beer and milk to industrial oils. With ATEX certification, they are safe for explosive atmospheres. The modular design simplifies maintenance and allows for easy integration with standardized wear parts and IEC standard motors, ensuring cost-effective operation and minimal downtime.

Benefits

  • Enhances operational efficiency with low NPSH design, preventing early cavitation.
  • Minimizes spare parts inventory through a modular setup, streamlining maintenance logistics.
  • Energy usage is optimized with speed control and impeller trimming, lowering operational costs.
  • Certified for ATEX environments, ensuring safety in potentially explosive settings.
  • Supports strict hygiene standards with design compliant to EHEDG, assuring product safety and quality.
