Unifiller - Transfer Pump

Applications & Use Cases

• Transferring viscous food products such as batters, creams, and purees within a production line.
• Filling depositors or hoppers with consistent volumes of product.
• Moving ingredients from bulk containers to processing vessels.
• Handling delicate food items with minimal shear or damage.

Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, throughput can range from 500 kg/hr to several tonnes per hour, depending on product viscosity and pump configuration.

Power supply

Commonly found on units of this type are 3-phase industrial power supplies, typically 400V, 50Hz.

Materials of construction

Wetted parts are typically constructed from food-grade stainless steel (e.g., 304 or 316) to ensure hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Pump type

Unifiller pumps are often positive displacement piston pumps, known for their accuracy and ability to handle thick products.

Footprint

A typical footprint for a standalone unit of this type might be around 800mm (L) x 600mm (W) x 1200mm (H), though this can vary.

Control system

Units commonly feature basic controls for start/stop and flow rate adjustment, often with a simple HMI or push-button interface.
