✦ Synopsis

The demands of the food and drink industry can push processing equip ment to its limits. Again and again progesstng cavity (PC) pumps are proving that they have in.built characteristics that allow them to meet these challenges with ease. Jeremy

Jones of leading PC pump manufacturer Mono Pumps argues that the basic design and operation of PC pumps match up to food and drink processing requirements in a way alternative pumping sy~ terns cannot.

Whatever the application, a consistently high level of hygiene is always a key consideration in the food and drink industry. Pump design and materials must be chosen to limit product retention and minimise the risk of contamination from lubrication or cleaning fluids.
