Alfa Laval is a global leader in hygienic fluid handling, and their hygienic pumps are widely used in industries such as food & beverage, dairy, pharmaceuticals, and personal care. These pumps are designed to meet strict hygiene, efficiency, and sustainability standards, ensuring optimal performance and compliance.
Here are five key reasons why Alfa Laval hygienic pumps stand out:
- Superior Hygienic Design & Compliance
- Alfa Laval hygienic pumps are designed with smooth, crevice-free surfaces to eliminate the risk of bacterial growth and contamination.
- They comply with 3-A Sanitary Standards, EHEDG (European Hygienic Engineering & Design Group), FDA, and USP Class VI requirements.
- Fully CIP (Clean-in-Place) and SIP (Sterilise-in-Place) compatible, ensuring fast and effective cleaning.
Maintains product purity, prevents contamination, and ensures regulatory compliance in critical industries.
- Energy-Efficient & Cost-Effective Operation
- Designed to minimise energy consumption, Alfa Laval pumps offer higher efficiency compared to traditional pumps.
- Their optimised impeller and rotor designs reduce friction, leading to lower power usage and operating costs.
- Models like the Alfa Laval LKH Centrifugal Pump provide up to 30% energy savings while maintaining high flow rates.
Lowers energy bills, reduces carbon footprint, and enhances sustainability in production.
- Gentle Product Handling for Sensitive Fluids
- Alfa Laval’s positive displacement and centrifugal pumps are engineered to handle delicate fluids such as:
- Dairy products (milk, cream, yoghurt)
- Pharmaceuticals (syrups, vaccines)
- Viscous food ingredients (chocolate, sauces, honey)
- Low-shear operation prevents damage to product structure, ensuring quality and consistency.
Protects high-value, sensitive products, reducing waste and improving yield.
- High Reliability & Low Maintenance
- Alfa Laval pumps feature robust stainless steel construction, ensuring durability and long service life.
- Designed for minimal wear and tear, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.
- Advanced seal technology improves pump reliability and prevents leaks, increasing operational efficiency.
Provides long-term performance, reduced maintenance costs, and fewer production interruptions.
- Versatility & Wide Range of Pumping Solutions
- Alfa Laval offers a complete range of hygienic pumps, including:
🔹 LKH Series Centrifugal Pumps – For high-efficiency fluid transfer
🔹 SX & SRU Rotary Lobe Pumps – For handling viscous, shear-sensitive fluids
🔹 DuraCirc Circumferential Piston Pumps – For precision metering and dosing
🔹 Twin Screw Pumps – For applications requiring both product transfer and CIP cleaning with the same pump - Suitable for various viscosities, flow rates, and applications.
One-stop solution for different production needs, improving flexibility and efficiency.
