Winyard - Winyard 2000 Transfer Pump

Applications & Use Cases

• Transferring viscous liquids and semi-solids in food processing.
• Moving soups, sauces, and purees within production lines.
• Handling dairy products such as yoghurts and creams.
• Pumping fruit preparations and confectionery fillings.
• Suitable for pharmaceutical and cosmetic product transfer where hygiene is critical.

Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, capacities commonly range from 500 to 5,000 litres per hour, depending on product viscosity and pump configuration.

Power supply

Units of this type commonly operate on a 400V, 3-phase, 50Hz electrical supply, requiring appropriate industrial connections.

Pump type

Given the description, this is likely a positive displacement pump, suitable for handling viscous products without significant shear.

Construction material

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

Typical footprint

A unit of this size and type might typically occupy a floor space of approximately 0.5m x 0.8m, plus ancillary pipework.

Maximum product temperature

Commonly, these pumps are designed to handle products up to 90-95°C, though specific seals and elastomers will define the exact limit.
