Netzsch NEMO® BH Sanitary Progressing Cavity Pump

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The NEMO^® BH Sanitary Pump is employed in the food products, pharmaceutical, cosmetic and chemical/biochemical industries for sanitary applications and optimal cleaning. The important capabilities include, the continuous, pressure-stable, gentle and low-pulsation pumping and metering in proportion to speed. The block pump construction with flanged drive is particularly compact and economical to operate.

Various different regulatory bodies have set specifications for a hygienically correct configuration of components and machines, as well as for component cleanability.  The materials used are approved by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) as well as EU-VO 1935/2004. In addition, NEMO^® Hygienic and Aseptic Pumps meet the specifications of the United States’ 3-A Sanitary Standards and are GOST-R certified (a Russian certificate of conformity).

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• Continuous low-pulsation pumping unaffected by fluctuations in pressure and viscosity
• Capacity in proportion to rotation speed with high metering precision over a broad rotational-speed range
• High suction and pressure capability without valves
• Reversible pumping direction
• Stator with chamfered entrance for optimal filling of the conveying chamber
• Gentle product handling
• Long production cycles with contamination-proof, sterile pump construction
• CIP and SIP capability
