Key Features

The MINIVERTER MINI and MIDEX are versatile self-priming flexible impeller pumps that use positive displacement technology to handle both thin and viscous liquids.

Featuring variable speed control (285–1400 rpm), reversible operation, and dry suction lifts up to 6m, they offer flexible performance across a wide range of applications.

Constructed from SS316 stainless steel with multiple impellers, seals, and mounting options, these portable 230V pumps can be powered from a standard household socket, providing a reliable and adaptable pumping solution.

Variable flow, multiple pump heads and mounting configurations, and solids handling are suitable for both thin and viscous liquids, and it can be plugged into a standard household plug socket.

  • Viscous Liquid Handling: Up to 50,000 cPs
  • Self-priming: Up to 6m without the need for a non-return valve
  • Shear-Sensitivity: Excels in handling shear-sensitive fluids
  • Reversible Operation
  • FDA-Approved: Approved EPDM and NBR impellers available on request for enhanced sanitation
  • Consistent Flow: Well-suited to dosing ingredients and chemicals
  • Mounting and installation options: Seamlessly integrate with existing pipework

How does a Miniverter Flexible Impeller Pump work?

This pump operates by the rotation of the internal shaft, which causes the flexible impeller to bend against the casing, pushing fluids and solids out of the discharge port.

What is the difference between a Centrifugal and a Flexible Impeller Pump?

A Centrifugal Pump is a Rotodynamic pump that passes energy from the motor to the liquid, which forces the fluid out of the discharge port. The Impeller Pump is a Positive Displacement Pump that traps small amounts of liquid and forces it from the suction to the discharge port.

How does this differ from other Flexible Impeller pumps?

The Miniverter offers the same sizing and performance as the EP range, but with added versatility from a built-in potentiometer and reversing switch on the terminal box.

This allows variable speed control (285–1400 rpm) and flow direction adjustment while remaining compact, portable, and simple to connect to a standard 230V single-phase supply

What applications are suited to this pump?

Typical applications include oenological, brewery, food and food oils, chemical, cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and wastewater treatment processes.

Are these pumps self-priming?

Yes, they can self-prime up to 6m suction lift from dry.

Can this pump run dry?

No, it can’t as it may cause damage to the motor, however, this pump is self-priming and the risk of dry runs is minimal.

Is this pump suitable for abrasive or hazardous chemicals?

Suitability depends on the specific fluid and material selection. With impellers available in NR, NBR, Neoprene, EPDM, and Silicone, and stainless steel pump heads in 316, the Miniverter can safely handle many chemical and wastewater fluids.

For abrasive or highly hazardous chemicals, material compatibility should be reviewed case by case to ensure safe and durable operation.
