COMPRESSION HEAD AND HOMOGENIZING VALVE

• The Compression Head is manufactured from a single block of high-quality stainless steel of a special type, with a 5-year guarantee against cracking and defects. This part is modular for an easy and fast maintenance
• The Pumping Pistons are coated with a special “Diamond-Like Carbon” plating (standard)
• The Interchangeable Valve Group assemblies are available in special materials depending on the products to be processed
• The Homogenizing Valves are designed to be energy efficient, with high stability and alignment of the moving parts (impact head) due to the hydrodynamic assembly, which ensures a vibration-free homogenization
• The Safety Valve, in sanitary configuration, is a spring-type with replaceable shutter and seat

MOTORIZATION - STRUCTURE

• The Pump Body is made using a thick-walled premium-grade high-resistance cast iron, engineered to withstand heavy loads and cancel out vibration
• The Crankshaft is made from special steel, machined from a heat-treated solid piece, finished crankpins, and completely nitrided. The crankshaft is supported by robust roller bearings (with bronze bearings used only on the crankpins)
• Power Transmission with a double reduction stage: “V” shaped belts/pulleys, with parallel axes reduction gear
• 3 phase, 4 poles, AC electric drive motor of primary manufacturers
• Lubrication is Oil Splash type. The mechanical components are in oil-bath and the correct oil level is checked by a sight glass installed on the front side of the machine
• The Frame is made of a stainless steel square-section frame, provided with separate stainless steel panels with a satin finish

INCLUDED EXTRAS
