Construction materials include AISI 316L low carbon stainless steel and electro-chemical polished surfaces as standard. The pumps are easy-to-clean using CIP, SIP or manual methods.

For more sensitive applications, smoother finishes up to RA 0.5micron are possible.

Pump casings are engineered to a minimum thickness of 6mm investment casting and the open, non-clogging impeller is designed to ensure high performance, high efficiency, low NPSH. It exerts a minimum of axial thrust on the motor bearing.
