SEEPEX TO SHOWCASE NEW HYGIENIC PUMP AT CHEMUK 2019 At CHEMUK 2019 stand M5 (1-2 May, Harrogate), progressive cavity pump supplier SEEPEX UK will showcase its new hygienic pump range. The BCFH range is the first to be certified by the European Hygienic Engineering and Design Group (EHEDG) under its new testing regime. Certification guarantees residue-free cleaning at a lower temperature, with lower chemical concentration and a shorter cleaning time than other cleaning-in-place (CIP) solutions. As well as giving end-users peace of mind that their closed equipment is microbiologically clean, equipment designed to this standard typically requires 76% less cleaning time compared to other CIP solutions, saving on water, detergent and energy. Not only does the BCFH range adhere to these strict safety and hygiene requirements, it does so without compromising product quality. Thanks to their low shear action, SEEPEX’s PC pumps do not affect a product’s physical quality – even sensitive, viscous or aggressive media. Visitors to the SEEPEX stand can also learn about the company’s Smart Dosing Pump (SDP). With an integrated control system delivering low pulsation flow and metering accuracy of ±1%, the SDP can be easily integrated into continuous or batch dosing systems. In addition, dry running and over- pressure sensors feed back to the drive to protect the pump from damage, helping to increase service intervals and the lifespan of the product. The SDP provides all the benefits of a traditional PC dosing pump with enhanced control options, future proofing your dosing system and resulting in less chemical usage. “SEEPEX progressive cavity pumps and control systems are used in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries wherever low to highly viscous, aggressive or abrasive media must be conveyed accurately with low shear and minimum pulsation,” explains Peter McGarian, Managing Director of SEEPEX UK. “We look forward to welcoming visitors to stand M5 at CHEMUK 2019 and helping to solve their pumping challenges.” CHEMUK 2019, the new UK Chemical Industries Supply Chain Expo & Open Conference, takes place 1-2 May at the Yorkshire Event Centre, Harrogate. www.seepex.com MORE THAN CLEAN EHEDG PUMP The EHEDG certifi ed BCFH range of progressive cavity pumps handles thin to highly viscous products, including those containing soft solids with a low shear action and minimal pulsation which enables accurate fl ow control. BCFH pumps fulfi ll the stringent demands of cleanliness in the food, beverage, chemical, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries.  EHEDG Type EL Class 1 and 3-A Sanitary Standards certifi ed  Equipment requires less cleaning time compared to other CIP solutions  Enhanced internal design ensures residue free cleaning with CIP/SIP  Easy maintenance due to detachable rotor connection and split suction casing SEEPEX UK Ltd. | [email protected] | www.seepex.com Issue 37 PECM 57
