Hygienic Progressive Cavity Pump

The DX Hygienic Pump series is an ideal solution for use within the Food, Pharmaceutical, Chemical and Cosmetic industries. The complete sanitary design, in compliance with standards EHEDG and 3A, ensures maximum sanitisation.

These pumps are highly rated for their CIP (Clean In Place) and SIP (Sterilising In Place) functions. The layout of the pump is designed specifically to allow for drainage and to avoid dead zones. All parts that come into contact with the product are manufactured from stainless steel (standard in AISI 304). The block and base plate can be manufactured from this material upon request.

The complete range of pumps can be manufactured with block construction (DXO series and DXC series) or bearing housing with independent shaft (JXO series and JXC series).

Features and Benefits of the Hygienic Process Cavity Pump include:

• Sanitary Design: Compliant with EHEDG & 3A Standards and is suitable for both CIP & SIP Cleaning & Sterilising procedures.
• No Dead Zones: Their special geometry allows for complete draining and avoiding dead zones where bacterial build-up and contamination can occur on standard Industrial designs. On request, all non-product contact parts can be supplied in Stainless Steel AISI 304 to increase their suitability for use in sanitary zones.
• Custom Coupling: The Hygienic Series can be delivered in either a Close Coupled Orientation (DX) or Flexibly Coupled Orientation with Bearing Bracket Support (JX). Either variant can be supplied with either an Open Pin Joint design (DXO / JXO) where the joint lubrication is facilitated by the pumped fluid (non-abrasive & lubricating) or Closed Pint Joint design (DXC / JXC) where the joint is sealed and lubricated independently from the pumped fluid making it suitable for sticky, non-lubricating or abrasive fluids.
• DX Series: the drive is coupled directly to the pump via a flange. The forces generated by the hydraulic component are supported by the drive itself. Each drive used is selected based on its specific technical parameters, and are put through a number of heavy-load tests. As a result, this is a cost effective and compact solution, reducing installation costs and simplifying maintenance processes
• JX Series: the drive is connected to the shaft inlet via a flexible coupling. This configuration is the best solution when looking at performance and durability. All the forces generated by the pump are absorbed by the bearings in the housing. These bearings offer high resistance against loads. Assembled with tremendous precision on the highest quality manufactured parts, this is the best solution when you want to guarantee duration and reliability, yet with greater installation space requirements. The bearing unit designed by us is modular and can be adapted to a DX Series pump with lantern. It is state of the art for this type of installation
