Food grade pump

Food grade water pump is a pump specifically designed for conveying food grade liquids. Food grade liquids refer to liquids that come into direct contact with food, such as milk, fruit juice, alcohol, soy sauce, etc. These liquids need to meet certain hygiene and safety requirements, so specialized food grade water pumps are needed for transportation.

The design and material selection of food grade water pumps comply with the regulations of the food industry, ensuring that there will be no pollution or adverse effects on the liquid during transportation. These pumps are usually made of non-toxic and rust resistant materials such as stainless steel or plastic to ensure that harmful substances are not released during use.

In addition to material selection, the design of food grade water pumps is also different from ordinary pumps. For example, the sealing ring of food grade water pumps is usually made of food grade silicone material to ensure that there is no leakage or contamination. In addition, the surface treatment of food grade water pumps is also more stringent, usually requiring polishing treatment to ensure a smooth and flawless surface.

Shenpeng food grade pumps generally use a voltage of 12V or 24V, using brushless DC technology, with a long service life, no maintenance, small size, high efficiency, low power consumption, strong anti-interference ability, and stable operation.

The use of food grade water pumps can ensure safety and hygiene during food production, avoiding food contamination or adverse effects caused by pump problems. These pumps are widely used in industries such as food processing, beverage production, and dairy products, and are one of the important equipment to ensure food safety.
