How Do You Pump High Viscosity Fluids?

For high viscosity fluids you will need a really strong and powerful Viscous Pump. You’re going to need a viscous pump that can handle the higher pressures required to move heavy, viscous fluids. Where a centrifugal pump is good on water or juice, it will not pump caramel or tomato paste! Kecol’s Viscous Pumps use Piston pumps for most of our high viscosity pump duties as they offer a partial vacuum to help suck the product into the pump, we can also use other pump types such as rotary lobe, twin-screw, progressive cavity or other pumps from our portfolio. Here are some tips to look out for when choosing your Viscous Pumps.

Flow-How made by Anderson-Negele

When 40+ years of expertise in Magnetic Inductive Flow Measurement meets 90+ years of expertise in Hygienic Sensor Technology: Hygienic instrumentation specialist Anderson-Negele has completed the integration of GEA Diessel’s electromagnetic flowmeter division, its product range and specialized staff. With the addition of this important business unit to its already extensive sensor portfolio, Anderson-Negele is taking another major step in its corporate development: hardly any other supplier can offer such a comprehensive range of sensor technology specifically developed and manufactured in-house for the food and pharmaceutical industries.

Easy to Maintain Hygienic Pumps Supplied within 3 Weeks for Food Packaging Plant

A mechanical contractor contacted North Ridge Pumps who were working on the expansion of a contract food packaging plant. As part of the expansion several packaging lines had been added for differing liquids to be packaged and resold ranging from oil products, to Jams, Syrups and juices. The lines were nearing completion, however pumps which had been ordered several months prior were still not yet delivered, and confirmation could not be given of the expected delivery date which had been postponed several times. 4 lines required pumps urgently being used to transfer Sugar Syrup, Vegetable Oil, Vinegar and Fruit Juices …

The Environmental Benefits Of Aseptic Filling

Over the last decade or so, the benefits of aseptic filling technology compared to traditional hot filling techniques have become well known. The benefits in terms of product quality have been well documented and discussed. However, the environmental benefits, both in terms of energy consumption and typical life cycle analysis of this packaging method are less understood.A number of Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) studies have shown that aseptic filling techniques using ultra-heat treatment (UHT) systems, which are based on heat exchangers, generally have lower environmental impacts. This is down to two main factors: the packaging used in the two different processes and the energy footprint of the process itself.
