themselves to meet their design. Tapflo UK has a team of in-house engineers who are available to design and manufacture solutions such as skids and mobile decanting systems if you’d like to take advantage of this service, contact our team.

Features & Benefits
So why was the Pomac CPC Sanitary Centrifugal Pump chosen?
The pump is fully EHEDG approved, manufactured from high-quality metals with a surface finish of 0.8 as standard or 0.5 upon request. This ensures the pump is in perfect condition for sanitary applications including CIP and SIP.
The CPC Pump is a high-quality solution at a cost-effective price and has a compact design which ensured the pump would fit into the customer’s skid design.
This pump can also achieve high head to low flow discharge pressures which this system required and was delivered to a lead time that suited the customer, providing an all-around solution that met the customer’s requirements perfectly.
The CPC solution also featured a clamped drain plug port at the bottom of the pump casing, this allows the pump and system to fully drain once the customer has finished completed their on-site servicing.
