I posted this in another spot.
I am looking for a UHMW or similar gear pump.
8 to 10 GPM
4 ft suction
No head pressure
100 deg F max
I'm going to use this in a low volume fill operation
The product is BBQ sauce and the PH runs all over the map depending upon the customer.
 
A gear pump is not a good pump for this since they are very hard to clean (not sanitary at all) and will be destructive to the sauce.

PH is not really a concern. Viscosity is more important, but most BBQ is not more than 10,000 Cps.

We have placed a lot of Waukesha universal pumps for this type of service.

It's important to the size the pump properly to avoid product degradation.


Drop me an e-mail if you would like more information. info"AT"expertprocess"DOT"com
