Low speed and low pressures. The viscosity are from 1000 – 3000 cP depending on type. The liquid is thixotropic – and this means that the liquid has a very low effective viscosity in the pump of around 20 – 30 cP. The yogurt needs there after to recover in the package. If the Yogurt been sheared too much, the quality will be lower. Typical application and solution: Supporting filling machinery from Tetra, Q = 4800 l/h, pressure approx 0,5 bar. Selection: SteriLobe SLFS (1.524l/rev) at a speed at 80 rpm On-Line DuraLobe Classic SQ RTP SteriLobe AccuLobe TRA10 TRA20 Training Presentation Quality tests on Yoghurt when pumping at different speeds.

Increased slip around the rotors creates higher velocities within the pump and therefore higher shear rates. The Yoghurt will recover in the package and the aim is to make the yoghurt recover as much as possible. In the test we could see that with a larger pump the finished quality increased. It's not the slip itself that damages the Yoghurt, it's more related to speed and shear. But of course, the less slip – the lower the speed, so low pressure is also important. (larger diameter pipes / short discharge runs) 110rpm = SteriLobe SLEL (1.099 l/rev) 75 rpm = SteriLobe SLFS (1.524 l/rev) On-Line DuraLobe Classic SQ RTP SteriLobe AccuLobe TRA10 TRA20 Training Presentation Cream (40% Fat at 4 - 8° C) Pump type: Speed: Seal: O-rings: Rotary Lobe 50 - 200 rpm Carbon/Sic EPDM (FDA) • Comment: The sensitivity of cream depends on temperature and fat content. The colder and the higher the fat is the more sensitive the cream is. Viscosity approx 20-30 cP. Avoid sharp 90° bends, use long radius bends and as low a pressure as possible to decrease the sheer and the back slip. Rotary lobe pump is a perfect solution at max speeds of approx 200 rpm. • Note; Warm cream (>30°C) with a lower fat content can be pumped with a centrifugal pump On-Line DuraLobe Classic SQ RTP SteriLobe AccuLobe TRA10 TRA20 Training Presentation Butter Pump type: Speed: Seal: O-rings: Rotary Lobe 30-70rpm Carbon/Sic EPDM (FDA Comments: Butter at 8° C has a viscosity of approx 40000 cP (variations in viscosity depending of season and region). The butter is not sensitive to pressure. It's more important that there are a good feeding of butter in to the pumps suction side. Cavitation and air bubbles will damage the pump and as well the butter. Ideally a butter trolley (special double auger feed) should be used to feed the pump. On the discharge side, long sweep bends should be used with no sudden changes in direction and non restrictive valves. On-Line DuraLobe Classic SQ RTP SteriLobe AccuLobe TRA10 TRA20 Training Presentation Cheese Pump type: Rotary Lobe Speed: 30-300 rpm Seal: Carbon/Sic O-rings: EPDM (FDA) Comments: After the milk has been separated in to curd (cheese) and whey, the curd is very sensitive. To minimise damage low pressures and shear is recommended (low speeds). Yellow Cheese (Hard, semi-hard etc) Curd in whey are relative simple to pump. Pressure should be low to minimize back slip so the whey is not separated from the curd when it's pumped. A pure curd are very sensitive. Speeds – up to 250 - 300 rpm as max. Fresh cheese – Cottage cheese - Quarg Can contain abrasive spices. A cottage cheeses are very sensitive when it has been produced – contains “squares of cheese” that should not be destroyed. Wing rotor at 35-50 rpm can be needed. Other types of fresh cheeses might not be as sensitive as it is supplied as a “paste”. Also consider Wright Pump Single Wing Other cheese types: Blue cheeses (Roquefort, Danablu). Pasta Filata (Mozzarella), White cheeses (goats cheese). Melted cheese. Note: Different membrane filtration processes are used to obtain concentration (Reverse Osmosis), fractionation (Nano or Ultra filtration), clarification (Ultra or Micro filtration) or sterilisation (Micro filtration).

On-Line DuraLobe Classic SQ RTP SteriLobe AccuLobe TRA10 TRA20 Training Presentation Water and USP The United States Pharmacopoeia Convention is a non-profit organization in Rockville, Md., that sets the standards for drugs. Due to federal legislation, the FDA enforces these standards. Many of the standards are listed in a publication called the United States Pharmacopoeia (USP). The main types of pharmaceutical water are : - Drinking Water, - Purified Water, - Sterile Purified Water, -Water for Injection, - Sterile Water for Injection, - Sterile Bacteriostatic Water for Injection, - Sterile Water for Irrigation and - Sterile Water for Inhalation. In the pharmaceutical industry each step in the water purification process must be initially validated. The initial validation process includes extensive monitoring and documentation of system performance for a period of weeks to many months. The water treatment system must be continually validated at regular intervals. Action limits, alarm limits and written procedures for normal operation and action/alarm conditions must be available for FDA review in addition to performance data.
