Pumps for fried food applications
Michael Smith Engineers has extensive experience in the supply of pumps for hot oil applications in the food industry. The majority of the leading UK producers of potato crisps, oven chips, potato wedges, and many other fried food products use pumps supplied by us.
This AK4124A internal gear pump, manufactured by Viking Pump, was one of several supplied to a leading potato crisp producer in Northern England for the circulation of hot sunflower oil. The pump is long-coupled via a gearbox to a 0.75kW, 4-pole motor, delivering a flow rate of 40 LPM at 2 bar. |
