Having the gentle pumping action with great ability to pump solids, the Verderflex hose pump gets used in a brewery for pumping yeast with 30% solids, which is a shear sensitive product and cannot be damaged or it will result in poor quality beer.
The Verderflex peristaltic hose pumps are able to pump shear sensitive products such as yeast and not damage the product, a brewery is happy with the VF50 pumps in the yeast room at a brewery in Australia.
The fluid (yeast) being highly abrasive, can lead to stator or impeller wear which can result in very costly downtime, loss of production and ongoing maintenance costs. The easy to change, long life Verderflex food grade NBR-F hose is abrasion resistant and in order to maximise uptime, it has been designed for an extended fatigue life. The Verderflex peristaltic hose pump has been suitably engineered to ensure that the production does not have any costly downtimes.
This pump has two duties: one for recirculating yeast around the pitch yeast tank. The second duty is to pitch yeast from the pitch yeast tank into the wort line which goes to the beer fermenters. When yeast is transferred or re-circulated in a process, the lines may become empty and pumps can run dry. The design of the Verderflex hose pump with its external lubrication eliminates the need for expensive hygienic dry running protection.
Also meeting the customer needs with special stainless frames, NBR-F food grade hoses, fast delivery and after sales service.
All Pumps Supplies is the Australian and New Zealand importer for the Verderflex peristaltic hose pumps and stocks a large range of pumps and spares.
