Application
The FCE Centrifugal Pump is ideally suited for low to medium viscosity products, offering smooth and continuous flow. Thanks to its sanitary design and stainless-steel build, it is the preferred choice for sensitive fluids in the:
- Dairy industry
- Food and beverage manufacturing
- Cosmetic and personal care sector
- Pharmaceutical production
Its superior hydraulic design provides excellent performance in CIP supply, water-based products, and gentle product transfer.
Operation
This pump operates on the centrifugal principle, utilizing a rotating impeller to impart kinetic energy to the fluid. As the fluid enters the center of the impeller, it is pushed radially outward into the volute casing, where velocity is converted into pressure. This design ensures a non-pulsating, consistent flow with minimal shear.
The FCE pump offers:
- Smooth product flow
- Quiet and vibration-free operation
- High efficiency and low energy consumption
- Hygienic and fully drainable construction
