Liverani EP-Mini flexible impeller pump

• Transferring delicate liquids in beverage production (e.g., wine, beer, fruit juices).
• Pumping viscous food products such as sauces, oils, or dairy.
• Handling chemical solutions in industrial processes where gentle transfer is required.
• Draining and filling operations in small-scale pharmaceutical or cosmetic manufacturing.

Typical capacity

For this class of flexible impeller pump, capacities typically range from 500 to 5,000 litres per hour, depending on model and application.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly operate on a 3-phase electrical supply, as indicated by the 0.48kW motor on this unit.

Impeller material

Flexible impellers are typically made from food-grade elastomers such as NBR, EPDM, or Neoprene, chosen based on the liquid's chemical compatibility and temperature.

Housing material

The pump housing is commonly stainless steel, suitable for hygienic applications and corrosion resistance.

Connections

Process connections typically include DIN, RJT, or Tri-Clamp fittings, with sizes commonly ranging from DN25 to DN50.

Motor power

For the EP-Mini series, motor powers typically range from 0.37kW to 1.1kW, depending on the specific model and required flow rate.

• What types of liquids can this pump handle?

  Flexible impeller pumps are well-suited for transferring a wide range of liquids, including viscous, delicate, or those containing small suspended solids, due to their gentle pumping action.

• Is this pump suitable for continuous operation?

• What maintenance is typically required?

• Can this pump run dry?

• Is this unit suitable for hygienic applications?

Food processing pumps are valued for reliability and durability in continuous operations. Buyers typically prioritise corrosion resistance, hygiene compliance, and consistent flow rates. When purchasing used units, inspecting seals, impellers and motor condition proves essential. Industry sentiment favours models with straightforward maintenance requirements and availability of spare parts. Stainless steel construction and gentle handling capabilities for delicate products are consistently sought features.
