Sanitary (SP / MIS)

Discflo SP and MIS series sanitary disc pumps for food, beverage and pharmaceutical duties. They handle high and fluctuating viscosity, high solids content up to 80%, and large and stringy solids, with entrained air or gas up to 25%. Non-impingement laminar flow of the patented Discpac, no pulsation, NPSHr about one third of traditional centrifugal pumps, no radial load (shaft deflection under 0.002 in. at full load). 3-A sanitary standards, USDA requirements, FDA-approved materials and integrated CIP/SIP capability.
