Our food grade pumps for brewing and beverages
Pumps for the brewhouse
At the start of the brewing process, which takes place in the brewhouse, the following processes take place:
- Scrapping the malt
- Handling, transfering and filtration of mash
(lauter tun & thin bed filtration) - Clarification process
- Wort & trub handling
- CIP
Applications in which several aspects play a role. During the treatment and especially during the filtration of mash, it is very important to select a pump with the highest efficiency. Besides a reduction of the electricity costs, the mash is less damaged, which significantly shortens the filtration time.
As a result, the pumps of the ICP and MCP series are the ideal partner. These pumps are all 1935/2004 EC certified and are therefore suitable for use in the food industry and have a high efficiency and very low NPSH.
