Single-stage centrifugal pump for heavy-duty applications
Optimize fluid handling with a high-efficiency centrifugal pump designed for challenging conditions, featuring flexible mounting options and advanced impeller technology to enhance performance and reduce energy consumption. Ideal for processes that demand reliable, hygienic, and efficient liquid transport.
Pumps and Filters Viscous and Solids-Laden Liquids
The GEA Hilge MAXA is a single-stage centrifugal pump from GEA, constructed with robust stainless steel AISI 316L, ideal for heavy-duty applications in food, beverage, and chemical handling environments. What sets this pump apart is its ability to efficiently pump and filter liquids with high solids content, employing closed impellers with superior efficiency and NPSH optimization. It serves critical roles in producing products such as milk, beer, and biofuels, managing tasks like cooling and lubrication with precision. Capable of handling up to 1400 m³/h and resistant to temperatures as high as 95 °C (extendable to 150 °C upon request), it integrates seamlessly into continuous or manual operations. With its various mounting options and customizable shaft seals, the GEA Hilge MAXA is designed for versatility and reliability. Certified to meet stringent industry standards (including FDA and EHEDG), it supports CIP systems for efficient and hygienic maintenance, ensuring minimal downtime and maximum productivity.
