Hygienic Pump CERTA

HYGIENIC PUMP

EHEDG (European Hygienic Engineering & Design Group) Certified

All parts comply with FDA (Food and Drug Administration) and EC 1935

TRANSFER WITHOUT VIBRATION

It provides the desired smooth and straight flow without an auxiliary flow regulator.
It increases the final product quality.
It prevents foaming, vibration and viscosity change during product transfer.

The gap between the wet part and the engine allows the fluid to be discharged in case of any malfunction, thus eliminating the risk of contamination.

When handling sensitive fluids like fruit concentrates, dairy products, or cosmetic emulsions, the margin for error is zero. The hygienic pump CERTA stands as a benchmark in sanitary fluid transfer, specifically engineered to meet the rigorous demands of EHEDG-certified environments. Unlike standard centrifugal pumps that might introduce shear or aeration, this system ensures a smooth, straight flow that preserves the structural integrity of your most delicate ingredients.

We understand that contamination isn’t just a technical failure; it is a massive financial and reputational risk. That is why the CERTA design focuses on eliminating dead zones where bacteria could thrive. By utilizing a single-shaft, single-rotor architecture, we minimize the complexity of the internal mechanics, making it much easier for your maintenance teams to clean and inspect the unit without specialized tools.

EHEDG and FDA Compliance Standards

Safety in food production starts with material science. Every component of the hygienic pump CERTA is manufactured to comply with FDA (Food and Drug Administration) and EC 1935 regulations. This means that every surface touching your product is inert, non-toxic, and resistant to the harsh chemical cleaning agents used in CIP (Clean-in-Place) cycles.

The EHEDG certification is not just a label; it is a guarantee of hygienic design. We have meticulously engineered the pump to ensure that there are no crevices or inaccessible areas. When you integrate this pump into your production line, you are investing in a system that simplifies your regulatory audits and ensures your product remains safe from the moment it enters the pump until it reaches the final packaging.

Eliminating Vibration and Product Aeration

One of the most significant challenges in liquid transfer is the unwanted introduction of air or the creation of foam. The hygienic pump CERTA provides a stable transfer process without the need for an auxiliary flow regulator. This stability is crucial when dealing with high-viscosity liquids or products that are sensitive to pressure changes.

By maintaining a consistent flow, the pump prevents:

Foaming: Essential for products like milk or fruit juices where air bubbles can ruin texture.

Viscosity Changes: Prevents the mechanical stress that often leads to product degradation.

Vibration: Reduces the mechanical fatigue on your piping systems and connected sensors.

We have seen many production lines struggle with “shaking” pipes due to turbulent flow. The CERTA design mitigates this by ensuring the fluid moves in a straight, laminar-like path, which directly increases the final product quality and extends the lifespan of your entire hydraulic circuit.

Advanced Contamination Prevention Technology

A critical feature of the hygienic pump CERTA is the strategic gap between the wet part and the engine. This design choice is intentional. In the event of a mechanical malfunction or a seal failure, the fluid is engineered to be discharged safely away from the drive mechanism. This prevents the “backflow” of contaminated product into the motor or the surrounding environment.

This separation of the sanitary zone from the mechanical zone is what makes the CERTA a leader in the industry. It effectively eliminates the risk of cross-contamination between different production batches. If you are running a multi-product facility—switching from chocolate to fruit concentrate, for example—this feature is your primary defense against costly batch recalls.

Proven Success Across Global Industries

The reliability of the hygienic pump CERTA is best demonstrated by its extensive track record in Turkey and beyond. We have seen this technology successfully deployed in some of the most demanding food and beverage applications. For instance, companies like Nestle use it for the delicate transfer of whole pistachio chocolate, where texture is everything.

Our references include a diverse range of sectors:

Dairy & Beverage: Yörsan, Aynes, and Sek Süt utilize the pump for curd cheese and milk transfer.
Confectionery: Eti Gıda and Ülker rely on it for moving cake dough without losing aeration.
Cosmetics: L’Oréal and Colgate use the CERTA for shampoo and lotion production.
Fruit Processing: Ak Gıda and Aroma depend on it for fruit yogurt and concentrate stability.

Seeing how brands like Pepsi and Unilever manage their high-speed lines with our equipment gives us the confidence to say that the CERTA is not just a pump, but a core component of a high-performance production ecosystem.

Low-Cost Maintenance and Operational Efficiency

High performance shouldn’t mean high complexity. The hygienic pump CERTA is designed with a “low-cost” philosophy in mind. The single-shaft, single-rotor design significantly reduces the number of moving parts. Fewer parts mean fewer points of failure and, more importantly, much lower spare parts inventory costs for your facility.

Maintenance teams often complain about the time lost during pump disassembly. With the CERTA, the process is streamlined. The ease of access to the internal components allows for rapid cleaning and inspection, which is vital for facilities that operate on tight production schedules. You can achieve higher uptime and lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) by choosing a design that prioritizes simplicity.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the CERTA pump handle high-viscosity fluids?

Yes, the hygienic pump CERTA is specifically designed to manage viscosity changes without causing significant pressure spikes or flow irregularities, making it ideal for thick syrups or doughs.

How does the pump prevent motor contamination?

The design includes a specific gap between the wet part and the engine. If a leak occurs, the fluid is directed to be discharged safely, preventing it from entering the motor housing.

Is the pump suitable for cosmetic applications?

Absolutely. Its compliance with FDA and EHEDG standards makes it perfect for transferring shampoos, lotions, and other sensitive cosmetic emulsions where hygiene is paramount.</
