What types of fluids is this pump suitable for?

This pump is primarily designed for water-like fluids, especially those requiring gentle handling such as protein solutions, cell suspensions, and other shear-sensitive biological or food products.

Is this pump suitable for sanitary applications?

Yes, QuattroFlow pumps are commonly used in pharmaceutical, biotech, and food processing industries due to their gentle pumping action and compatibility with CIP/SIP processes.

What is the advantage of a 4-piston diaphragm design?

The 4-piston design provides a very gentle, low-pulsation flow, which is crucial for maintaining the integrity of shear-sensitive products and ensuring consistent transfer.

Can this pump handle abrasive materials?

While primarily for gentle handling of sensitive fluids, the diaphragm design can offer some resistance to minor abrasives compared to other pump types. However, for heavily abrasive slurries, a different pump category might be more suitable.

What are the typical power requirements for a pump of this model?

Power requirements vary by specific motor configuration, but units of this type typically operate on standard industrial voltages common in the UK, such as 3-phase supply.
