Operational safety without leaks a fundamental requirement
Due to the strict requirements of the food industry, a complete absence of leaks is essential in these production steps, necessitating the use of the CMIT series of the ALLMAG® product family from Allweiler®. These are magnetically-coupled single-stage volute centrifugal pumps with a hermetically sealed design that prevents all leaks. Their patented design principle also provides exceptionally high operational safety and reliability.
This is very important because if the fully automated process was interrupted by the failure of even one pump, the temperature in the stations would drop within a few minutes. Such a disturbance to the continuous and complex process would result in quality inconsistencies, forcing the company to destroy the products and suffer a significant loss.
But the Allweiler® pumps selected by Coppenrath & Wiese have fully met the company's expectations for safety and quality in the plant's production system. "Since their installation sixteen years ago, these pumps have been running with no disturbances and have proven to be highly reliable components," according to Andreas Beckmann, director of the engineering department.
Committed to future performance
In order to ensure that this high level of operational safety continues into the future, Coppenrath & Wiese is supported by Allweiler's PumpService program of technical expertise.
