Pump for carbonated liquids
Pump for carbonated liquids
(OP)
Hi everybody! I would like to pump carbonated beverages. Things like beer and soda, namely. I've been trying to figure out what kind of pump I need to pull this off without spinning all the carbonation out and making my beer/soda flat and cavitating my pump. I'm looking at a rotary vane stainless steel pump from Procon (Procon 3 series) at about 0.8 GPM. Does anybody have any experience with this? Is this the best kind of pump for this application, or is there something else I should look at? Also, I'm hoping that since the pump is stainless steel it will be safe to drink the fluid after it goes through the pump?
Thanks!
Thanks!

It really won't make much of a difference what type of pump that you employ when you pump out of the fountain sump. The beer is already decarbonated.
If you want to pump pure beer, you do need a PD type of pump:

One would think that the problems of sanitation would be such an issue that constructing a beer fountain will be an exercise in futility.
I understand that there is a beer fountain one day each year in Munich for some April beer festival. I am not familiar with any other beer fountains.
What you are trying to do seems to be unworkable. Perhaps you can recirculate and make a fountain using the water that is used to cool the beer.
