While we’re well known for our pump solutions in ‘messy’ applications, we also offer ranges of hygienic pumps designed for the food and pharmaceutical industries.

One example is this LE130 hygienic centrifugal pump from SAWA Pumpentechnik AG. Built from medical-grade 1.4435 stainless steel with electropolished wetted parts and DIN 11851 connections; this pump offers excellent chemical resistance, easy maintenance, and the highest level of hygienic standards.

Inside the motor shroud, you’ll find a 1.1 kW, 2 pole motor, covering a flow rate of 3.4 m³/hr against a discharge head of approximately 15 m. This unit will be used to recirculate CIP fluid at an operating temperature of 60-65ºC for a pharmaceutical application.
