BCSO - Open pin joints

FOOD AND HYGIENIC PUMP WITH OPEN PIN JOINTS

The hygiene-compliant design of the BCSO food and hygienic pump from SEEPEX is certified under 3-A Sanitary Standards. It can be cleaned without leaving any residues using CIP and SIP methods, and therefore fulfills the strictest requirements for hygienic cleanliness. Furthermore, the materials of the individual components are food-certified (FDA / EU 1935-2004). Thanks to the special design of the corrosion and wear-resistant joints, maintenance work can be performed quickly and without special tools.

Conveying Capacity: 0.03–130 m³/h; 0.132–572 US gpm

Pressure: ≤ 24 bar; ≤ 350 psi

Features and Benefits

Fulfills strict hygienic standards

Certified under the 3-A Sanitary Standards and designed in compliance with the EHEDG guidelines, and fitted with FDA-approved and EU 1935-2004 compliant components

Low pulsation

Minimal pulsation and low shear characteristics allow the gentle conveyance of sensitive products – even containing whole pieces

Residue free cleaning

Special housing geometry and open, hygienic pin joints facilitate optimal cleaning and sterilization: CIP, SIP, COP

Service-friendly

Maintenance work without the need for special tools thanks to the open design of the joints, using only a few components

Process-optimized

Low cleaning costs and reduced production facility downtime due to quick and simple maintenance

Technologies, accessories and options

Pressure branch

Made of stainless steel, polished inside, glass bead blown outside. Allows effective draining. Connection as standard to DIN, Tri Clamp® or any other known fittings
Rotor

Wear resistant and corrosion-resistant materials. Optionally with hard surface treatment.
Conventional geometry

With short pitches and a compact design, the conventional geometry produces high pressures.
6L geometry

With a small rotor diameter and a long pitch, the 6L geometry attains lower surface velocities and extends the service life due to its large sealing line.
Base plate

Tailor-made selection of base plates. The base plates can be easily combined with different drives from all major manufacturers.
Stator

In food-grade materials according to FDA, and in compliance with EHEDG directives. Follows pharma regulations according to several USP classes.
Conventional geometry

With short pitches and a compact design, the conventional geometry produces high pressures.
6L geometry

With a small rotor diameter and a long pitch, the 6L geometry attains lower surface velocities and extends the service life due to its large sealing line.
Equal Wall Stator

The stator with uniform wall thickness is used in situations with very high pressures or temperatures.
Coupling rod

Made of stainless steel for power transmission. Available with propellers or feed screw.
Suction casing

Made of stainless steel and internally polished with an external satin finish. The optimized pump casing with suction connection above the mechanical seal enables both product flow and CIP solutions to flow through the entire casing. The tangential CIP-connection allows effective draining. Optional: double jackets for heating.
Open pin joint

Hygienic joint, designed for higher pressures and flow rates providing optimal cleanliness.
Mechanical seal

Flushed by the product and located inside the suction area for optimal cleaning.
Mechanical seal housing

Made of stainless steel for mounting the mechanical seal, available with or without quench.
Plug-In shaft

Designed for easy CIP, made of stainless steel and designed to mount the mechanical seal in food grade material.
Lantern

A corrosion resistant design, optionally made of stainless steel, connects the pump and drive and secures the assembly to the base plate or skid.
Drive

Geared motors, variable speed drives or frequency controlled motors of all major manufacturers, directly flanged to the pump without additional couplings or guards. Covers made of stainless steel are available.
Overpressure Protection

The pressure gauge switches off the pump as soon as a pre-set pressure is exceeded or not reached and protects the pump from increased wear and tear or piping damage.
Seal barrier system

This unit protects the shaft sealing by selectively supplying barrier liquid. Also available with flow meter on request.
Multiple-acting mechanical seal

Mechanical seals arranged in a row. Available in "back-to-back", "face-to-face" or "tandem" sequence.
Single-acting mechanical seal

Universal standard mechanical seal for dosing, food applications and semi-submersible pumps for sealing the plug-in shaft in the suction casing or the hopper.
