materials and surface finishAll pumps within the Grundfos sanitary range have been designed to meet the hygienic design criteria. The material we use is AISI (1.4404/1.4435)stainless steel, which is either cold-rolled and/or forged. This ensures ahomogeneous pore-free surface as opposed to cast material. Whererequired, fully drainable models are available (see examples below).

Grundfos sanitary range is the result of more than 130 years of supplyinginnovative pumps with a hygienic design to the sanitary industry. All ourpumps match a series of national and international design standards, guidelines and regulations relating to materials as well as surface finishesof materials used.

Adding excellenceto hygienic design

Pumps for use in the sanitary industry all have one thing in common: They’re subject to strict standards. That’s why we push technology to thelimit in every way possible to achieve outstanding quality with regard tomaterials, surface finish and performance.

shaft seals and connectionsDepending on the actual application and pumped media, single or doublemechanical shaft seals are available to secure trouble-free operation. Thedouble shaft seals can be supplied as “tandem” or “back-to-back” versions.The single mechanical shaft seals applied are inboard seals mounted in anoptimum position in the product flow to ensure lubrication, cooling as wellas CIP and SIP capability. Standard materials are carbon/stainless steel andEPDM – other materials are available on request.

A variety of connection options are available, such as SMS, RIT, DIN, ISO,and TRIClover. Special sterile threaded fittings and flanges can be suppliedon request.

Even though the sanitary industries have many aspects in common, such as the need for pumps that are specifically designed for their industrythere are still various areas that call for individual attention. Applicationrequirements can vary a great deal from company to company. E.g. dairies need pumps that handle liquids gently – if pumped too hard the fat molecules will break and the finished product will be damaged. The pharmaceutical industry requires pumps that are designed to pumpliquids that have to stay 100% sterile during production – e.g. WFI.

Grundfos offers a wide range of pumps that can be applied in severalsanitary processes, such as mixing, distillation and cleaning. Our mainaim is to provide pumps and pump solutions that can handle mostprocesses within production of food, beverage and pharmaceuticals.
