Visit Booth 203 to view diverse product range for food and beverage

Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Solutions (WMFTS) is showcasing its diverse product range for food and beverage applications at the California Food Producers Food Processing Expo. CLFP 2023 will be held at the SAFE Credit Union Convention Center in Sacramento, California February 14-15, 2023. Visit Booth 203 to see WMFTS’ Certa Sine pump and Aflex FaBLINE hose and meet specialist engineers who will be able to share insight and product performance data.

Used in many stages of food and beverage processing; from unloading raw material to a storage tank, through transfer to a mixer/agitator/reactor/cooking vessel, to final transfer to the filling line, Certa Sine pumps maintain yield and increase output.

This advanced innovation in food pump technology delivers high suction capability to handle viscous products, offering significant advantages over alternative technologies. Unlike traditional pumps with rotors that cut through the fluid, Certa's sinusoidal rotor gently carries fluid through the pump to dramatically reduce shear. The pump uses 50 percent less power than lobe or circumferential pumps with exceptional performance for all applications, including handling highly viscous products. With 3A certification as standard, users can be assured that even chocolate, cheese curd, soft fruit, sauces and pie fillings are pumped without degradation.

The Aflex FaBLINE hose, also on display, is a food-grade flexible hose developed to meet the latest hygiene standards. The patented PTFE-lined hose with standard 316 stainless steel braid ensures efficient product transfer and handling while simultaneously offering longer life than rubber hose alternatives.

In addition to the benefits such as increased service life, reduced maintenance, less clean in place (CIP) downtime and lower processing costs, FaBLINE offers excellent liner flexibility in a kink-resistant design that requires less force to bend than competitor smooth bore products. Furthermore, the product carries up to twice the flow of similar-sized convoluted delivery hoses, providing a faster, more efficient processing solution.
