CASE STUDY:

Beverage Blending

Pump:
Waukesha Cherry-Burrell Brand – Model 030 Universal 2 Series

Industry:
Beverage blending

Problem:
The pulsing flow of the beverage ingredients provided by the lobe style pumps did not provide a continuous blend and resulted in poor product consistency.

Solution:
Two Universal 2 Series pumps (model U2-030) were installed and connected in parallel. One pump moved sucrose from a source tank to a continuous blend system while the second pump transferred high fructose corn syrup to the same skidmounted blending system. The External Circumferential Piston (“ECP”) style rotors on the U2 pump provide an accurate, pulse-free flow assuring that the products are metered smoothly into the blend system with accuracies of up to +/- 0.1% depending on product viscosity and flow rates.
