Many pump systems cannot stand up to
the stringent demands of beverage production, filling and dispense applications.
Repeatability is a crucial requirement, and
most beverage production applications also
demand high speed for line efficiency, and
adjustable speed for overall line flexibility to
serve different container sizes and product consistencies. Pump systems used for
production and filling applications must also
meet sterile production requirements, be
CIP/SIP capable, and require only minimal
parts change to minimize the downtime associated with product changeover.
Solution
Masterflex pumps provide a repeatable,
controlled dispense to accommodate
precision product handling. Masterflex
pumps can handle a variety of product fill
volumes and dispensing profiles, as well
as provide a robust solution for sterile
liquid transfer to serve critical components
performing upstream and downstream
production processes. For OEMs, our
world-class R&D engineers, and production facilities can help you find the pump
solution that integrates perfectly with your
equipment.
t Transfer, filling and dispense operations gain speed and flexibility because

your product comes in contact with only
the tubing and filling nozzle, which can be
replaced in less than a minute. Unlike other
pump designs, Masterflex® pumps never
need to be disassembled to be cleaned.
t We offer a wide range of Masterflex
pumping systems that provide accurately
controlled flow of liquids and contamination-free flow over a wide range of flow
rates. Rated for continuous use, Masterflex pumps provide for reduced process
maintenance costs and minimized system
downtime.
A Completely Closed System
Accurate and sterile flow control is essential for beverage producing, filling,
and dispensing applications. Maintaining
repeatable, contamination-free flow in
both upstream and downstream processes,
while also reducing process maintenance
costs and minimizing system downtime, is
often a full-time challenge.
t High accuracy and repeatability, combined with low maintenance, make the
Masterflex pump a highly versatile and
invaluable piece of equipment for many
different beverage processing, transfer

and dispensing applications. Masterflex
pumps provide a completely closed system
for contamination-free flow, with a wide
range of tubing materials available for
commercial beverage processing applications to meet USP, FEA, NSF, and 3A
requirements.
Customer-Specific OEM Solutions
For beverage dispensing applications,
Masterflex pumps are key components in
the products of numerous OEMs worldwide, each providing the specialized fluid
handling solution to best match our customer’s exact specifications. For example,
Bunn-O-Matic Corp. equips its highly
regarded coffee dispensing machines with
our peristaltic pumps. So does IMI Cornelius, for its popular and extensive line
of juice dispensers.
t Every series of our peristaltic pumps
is available for OEM use, providing
flow rates from less than a teardrop to
hundreds of gallons per minute, and
an accuracy rate better than 1 percent.
Discover why leading OEMs specify our
highly versatile peristaltic pumps for their
products.
