Mobile Inverter Driven Flexible Impeller Pump for Bottling Liquid Nutritional Supplements

Mobile Inverter Driven Flexible Impeller Pump

Food Grade Mobile Pump with Variable Speed Drive 

We were contacted by a customer that required a bespoke food grade mobile solution for transferring liquid nutritional supplements that they manufacture on site. They have multiple tanks of liquid in various locations around the plant. Each tank required emptying and the contents transferring into several small bottles. 

Along with the pump being mobile, they requested a variable speed control for adjusting the flow rate produced by the pump. The variable speed drive was necessary as the size of bottles being filled varies along with the amount of nutritional supplement added, depending on the final product produced.

We had the ideal solution for this project and were able to quickly select a pump set. We specified our trolley mounted INV Mini flexible impeller pump with variable speed drive. This is a compact mobile solution, it comes complete with an FDA approved flexible impeller pump, tri-clamp connections, mobile trolley, dry run protection, control panel and wired remote control with a variable speed dial.

This solution ticked all the boxes for the customer and more. The pump is food grade and variable speed as required, however it has the added benefit of dry run protection. A sensor is mounted on the pump head that detects if no fluid is entering the pump, this then turns the pump off in this event and prevents the internals from overheating and damaging.
