PCM Hycare™ Sanitary Progressing Cavity Pump

PCM HyCare™ is the world’s gentlest, most hygienic food sanitary pump. It’s been especially designed for food applications, featuring a patented body design developed using advanced computational fluid dynamics. This progressing cavity pump will treat your ingredients, food safety requirements and budget with the care and respect they deserve.

HyCare™ uses patented Moineau technology to protect the quality and texture of pumped products. With these PCPs, 67% of the product texture is protected – a huge amount compared to Lobes pumps and Bi-Wing pumps, which only protect 15%.

HyCare™ is the cleanest food grade pump available on the market. 3-A or EHEDG certification guarantees optimum hygiene for both the process, and the final product.

Its Duraflex flexible shaft means it’s the shortest food grade pump available, ensuring loss at the end of the production process is kept to an absolute minimum.

PCM EASYFEED ™ Hopper Progressing Cavity Pumps

The growing demand for more concentrated and sophisticated products often implies an increase in the viscosity of the products being transferred. If your product is viscous, pasty, sticky, greasy, thick, or concentrated, PCM provides an appropriate solution for each type of rheology through its range of force feeding progressing cavity pumps – PCM EASYFEED.

The PCM EasyFeed progressing cavity pump (food grade version) with Moineau™ technology is ideal for transferring highly viscous, heterogeneous with or without particles, pasty or even sticky fluids. This pump is specially adapted to the meat and the fruit & vegetable markets. It has been designed in compliance with food recommendations and requirements to avoid any retention areas and to facilitate cleaning.

Benefits of PCM EASYFEED feeding pumps

VERSATILITY AND ROBUSTNESS

  • Transfer of various products: heterogeneous or not, fluid or highly viscous, with or without particles, pasty, sticky, fatty…
  • For viscosities up to 80 000cp and dryness levels of 30%
  • Small pump footprint and and easy to integrate

DESIGN ENSURING FOOD CONTACT SUITABILITY

  • Design avoiding any retention areas
  • Parts in contact with the product are food grade certified (seals, elastomers, sheaths…)
  • 316L stainless steel parts: external shotpeening,internal polishing for a roughness in line with food requirements

SIMPLIFIED MAINTENANCE

  • Pump disassembly with clamp collars for immediate access to wear parts and easy clean out of place
  • EcoMoineau™ patented rotor coupling system with 3 screws

Performances of PCM EASYFEED feeding pump

  • Pressure: 10 bars [145psi]

PCM ECOMOINEAU™C Floating Stator - Small Food Grade Progressing Cavity Pump

As one of most compact progressing cavity pumps available today, the PCM EcoMoineau™C floating stator pump can handle a wide range of fluids with varying viscosities and solids. It provides good suction lift and can tolerate run dry. It offers low Life Cycle Cost, thanks to simple design, cost-efficient maintenance and reduced weight. The pump can be rapidly dismantled for Cleaning Out of Place (COP) in food applications.

PCM EcoMoineau™C floating stator pump is based on the “Moineau™” progressing cavity pump principle.

PCM EcoMoineau™C floating stator pump is ideal for small space requirements. Instead of the connecting rod, used on the conventional progressing cavity pumps, this PCP is designed with a floating stator in elastomer without frame. The flexibility of the stator allows the rotor to rotate eccentrically, as the rotor is directly connected to the drive. The pump body is consequently shorter.

In many cases the PCM EcoMoineau™C floating stator equipped with a frequency inverter can be used as a dosing pump. It is an advantageous replacement for traditional dosing units for viscous, articulate and abrasive products. It’s compactness and robustness makes it particularly suitable for integration in machines and systems

Benefits of the PCM EcoMoineau™C floating stator

  • Compact size
  • Reduced weight
  • Conception dedicated to food industry with COP (cleaning out of place)
  • Dosing pumpwithout pulsations
  • Simple and rugged construction in stainless steel
  • Low life cycle costs

Performances of the PCM EcoMoineau™C floating stator

  • Maximum flowrate: 6 m3/h
  • Pressure: 4 bars
  • Maximal temperature (in continuous operation): 80°c
  • Particles size : 6 mm
  • Accessories : pressure sensor, dry running protection
  • Options : trolley, by-pass and/or safety valve, automatic level, flow rate and pressure controls.
