Boyser AMP22 Peristaltic pump

• Transferring viscous food products such as sauces, purees, and yoghurts.
• Dosing flavourings, colourings, and other additives in food production lines.
• Handling shear-sensitive liquids like fruit pulps or delicate emulsions.
• Pumping abrasive slurries or products containing small particulates without damage to the pump or product.
• Filling operations for various food and beverage containers.

Typical Flow Rate

For this class of peristaltic pump, flow rates commonly range from a few litres per hour up to approximately 1.5 m³/h, depending on the specific model and drive speed.

Maximum Temperature

Units of this type typically handle temperatures up to 80°C, suitable for many food processing applications including warm transfers.

Inlet/Outlet Connections

Commonly, connections are 25mm (1 inch) for this size of pump, facilitating integration into standard food processing pipework.

Maximum Viscosity

Peristaltic pumps are well-suited for high-viscosity products; units like this can typically manage viscosities up to 20,000 cP (centipoise) or higher.

Power Supply

For industrial applications, these pumps are commonly powered by a 3-phase electrical supply, offering robust and consistent performance.

Pump Type

This is a peristaltic (hose) pump, known for its gentle pumping action and ability to handle abrasive or viscous fluids.

• What are the main benefits of a peristaltic pump for food processing?

  Peristaltic pumps offer gentle pumping action, preventing product degradation. They also provide excellent containment as the product only contacts the hose, simplifying cleaning and reducing contamination risk.

• Is this pump suitable for CIP (Clean-In-Place) systems?

• What type of products can this pump handle?

• What maintenance is typically required for a peristaltic pump?

• Can this pump be used for metering or dosing applications?

Peristaltic pumps are valued in laboratory and pharmaceutical settings for their gentle, non-contact fluid handling, making them suitable for delicate samples and sterile applications. When buying used units, buyers typically prioritise checking tubing condition, motor functionality, and calibration history. Industry sentiment favours these pumps for their reliability, low maintenance requirements, and consistent flow rates. Common strengths include versatility across various fluid viscosities and compatibility with corrosive or shear-sensitive media. Prospective buyers should verify spare parts availability for specific models.
