What keeps every process system moving for the manufacture of

food, beverages, pharmaceuticals and more? Hygienic pumps are

applied to processes at the heart of production, in close contact

with the product.

GEA offers a multitude of designs for different and often highly

sensitive applications: small components, yet an essential part of

every system setup.

The success of our customers depends on the quality and profitability

of their manufactured products. That’s why they rely on GEA’s

advanced process technology and decades of experience in ensuring

smooth processing. GEA Hilge Hygienic Pumps for all liquid

processes meet the highest hygiene standards.

State-of-the-art pump technology, made to our customers’ preferences

Two modern pump lines

Hygienic pumps are used in processes that directly affect product

quality and production. Therefore, the selection and configuration

of the right pump requires a lot of experience. The selection

matrix for the two pump lines GEA VARIPUMP and GEA

SMARTPUMP provides a decision support. The pump types

of these two lines are suitable for different requirements and

purposes and thus offer the right solution for every application.

Always the right solution – technologically and economically – for each application

The perfect choice

The first parameter to check for selecting the right pump is

the complexity of the customer application with regard to the

respective system pressures, temperatures and product media.

The second parameter is the required degree of customer-

specific adjustment. The overall system concept determines

whether standardized pump types or customized engineering

will be required.

4 · TWO MODERN PUMP LINES

10 · SINGLE-STAGE CENTRIFUGAL PUMPS: GEA HILGE HYGIA

GEA Hilge HYGIA

The materials used for GEA Hilge HYGIA pumps have been

selected for the use in hygienic processes. The housings are

made of CrNiMo rolled steel (1.4404 / 1.4435) and have a smooth

surface without pores and blowholes (Hygienic Design).

GEA Hilge HYGIA pumps are ideally adaptable to customer

needs and demanding tasks thanks to variable connections, seals,

mountings, infinitely adjustable pressure port and housing

variants for up to 25 bar system pressure.

The premium pump series GEA Hilge HYGIA consists of single-stage end-suction centrifugal pumps, designed for use in industries with high demands to hygiene and flexibility.

The “Swiss knife” among hygienic pumps

• Process safety, reliability, and optimal cleanability, due to sterile,

cast-free stainless steel, deep-drawn or forged components.

• Thanks to the mechanical seal optimally positioned in the

pump, a flushed version can often be avoided.

• Precise sizing for optimum efficiency and matching of duty

point thanks to different impeller geometries. Additional

flexibility through operation on a frequency converter.

• Gentle conveying of liquids containing solids (e.g. cheese

curd), insensitive to solids (grape panicles, pulp, long fibers

in concentrate) due to the large clearance between impeller

and pump housing as well as special free-flow impeller.

• Facilitated system qualification due to extensive customer-

and requirement-specific documentation and certificates.

• When installed vertically, the pump is completely self-draining

without a drain valve.

• Service-friendly, quick-opening pump housing. One sealing

concept for the entire centrifugal pump portfolio (single-stage,

multi-stage, self-priming pumps) minimizes wearing parts logistics.

• The Adapta version enables quick and easy motor change,

pump can remain in the pipeline (requires no revalidation

in pharmaceutical applications).

GEA Hilge NOVATWIN

The robust design of the pump, proven over many years,

ensures reliable operation. The name NOVATWIN stands for

more than 150 years of pump experience.

GEA Hilge NOVATWIN is a flexible twin screw pump that meets the highest hygienic requirements. It enables sensitive media to be conveyed at low speed as well as CIP cleaning by variable speeds up to 3000 rpm, with only one pump.

2-in-1 twin screw pump

• Thanks to the gentle and low-pulsation conveying, even

sensitive products with large particles remain intact.

• Flexible pump for both product and CIP, saving investment,

adaption time, expense, and labor.

• Good suction performance due to tight manufacturing tolerances

and narrow gaps in the pump.

• The pump’s hygienic design ensures quick and safe cleanability,

saving time and resources while increasing production safety.

• Hardened surfaces allow easy handling of abrasive media.

• Ideally adaptable to customer needs and demanding tasks thanks

to numerous combinations of screw diameters and pitches.



• Thanks to its hygienic design, the pump can be emptied

completely without a drain valve.

The robust design and standardized connection dimensions

ensure good interchangeability.

The GEA Hilge Norm-Durachrom is characterized by simple

maintenance, as well as by the use of IEC standard motors,

which can be easily replaced if necessary. GEA Hilge thus offers

proven product quality for all applications from one source.

The GEA Hilge Norm-Durachrom series complements the GEA hygienic pump range as a standard water pump, in order to be able to cover all areas with the appropriate pumps for our customers.

The norm pump

• Single stage, normal priming standard pump.

• Pump heads up to 90 m and flow rates up to 240 m³/h.

• Operating pressure up to 10 bar.

• Media temperature −10 °C to +90 °C.

• Nominal connection diameters from DN 32 to DN 100.

• Motor power from 0.25 kW – 55 kW.

• Impeller, casing and shaft made of Cr-Ni rolled steel

(AISI 304 / AISI 316).

• Mechanical seals: Carbon / stainless steel / EPDM or

SiC / SiC / Viton.

• Process construction in “back pull-out” design, whereby the

entire pump hydraulics including motor are pulled out to the

rear and the pump casing remains in the pipeline.
