Sanitary Self Priming Centrifugal Pump

Our Self Priming Sanitary Centrifugal Pump from partner Pomac Pumps is an EHEDG-certified pump designed to meet the highest hygiene standards, offering an ideal solution for applications involving trapped air or gas within the product across the Pharmaceutical, Biotech, and Food industries. Featuring a semi-open impeller, the CPC-ZA model ensures optimal performance in challenging conditions, and is the self-priming variant of the CPC model, boasting self-priming capabilities up to 6m. Suited to applications requiring suction lift, like CIP Return or Truck Unloading, this ump is available in 4 set sizes with a capacity range of up to 300m³/hr and 9 Bar in 50 Hz, and 350m³/hr and 13 Bar in 60 Hz. Additionally, this pump offers solids handling capabilities up to 10mm and is ATEX-rated for use in hazardous environments.

Typical applications for our Sanitary Self Priming Centrifugal Pump:

  • Dairy
  • Beverages
  • Food
  • Chocolates & Sweets
  • Sugar
  • CIP & SIP
Overview

The CPC-ZA Sanitary Self-Priming Centrifugal Pump Series is the Self Priming variant of the CPC series. Its self-priming capabilities make it ideally suited for pumping liquids with entrained air and gases and where suction lift is required, such as CIP return or Truck Unloading.

Like the CPC Series, this range consists of 4 set sizes, CPC 160-210-260-310, with a capacity range of up to 300 m³/hr & 9 Bar in 50 Hz and 350 m³/hr & 13 Bar in 60 Hz. All liquid contact parts are manufactured from cast Stainless Steel AISI 316L or AISI 316L Mo Ni or Hastelloy C22 upon request for increased corrosion resistance with a surface roughness of <0.8 (<0.5 on request).

The CPC-ZA Sanitary Self Priming Centrifugal Pump is fitted with either open or star impellers, which are dry-mounted to the shaft by means of O-Rings and are also equipped with pressure relief holes to ensure optimal cleaning of the shaft seal and chamber. The O-Rings ensure that there is minimal liquid contact with the shaft whilst cleaning the contact faces at the same time. There are minimal clearances between the impeller and the back casing to ensure high efficiencies and pressures whilst retaining its solids-handling ability up to 10 mm. Units can be supplied close coupled in KAM, KAV & KAC designs with B3 or B5 motors or pneumatic, diesel driven or hydraulic motors in their IG & IGH forms. Various Mechanical Sealing & O-Ring options, drain connections and heating jackets are available on request.
