The Wanner Hydra-Cell® Pro PH70 positive-displacement pump is used for pharmaceutical and related applications in the biotechnology, food/beverage, cosmetics, nutraceuticals and semiconductor industries. These industries share similar requirements for a seal-less, sanitary pump design that can reliably handle a variety of non-lubricating fluids of differing viscosities.
While clean-in-place, delicate transfer and difficult-to-pump liquids are common across industrial manufacturing, the pharmaceutical and related sectors particularly benefit from a hygienic pump-head design with easy-to-clean surfaces, repeatable performance for a given configuration, and a seal-less architecture that minimizes contamination of process liquids and downstream equipment.
| Specification | Details |
|---|---|
| Flow Range | up to 36 GPM (138 L/min) |
| Maximum Pressure | 580 PSI (40 bar) |
| Design | Seal-less pentaplex (5-chamber) diaphragm (based on D35) with sanitary head |
| Surface Finish | Wetted surfaces polished to ≤ 0.8 Ra |
| Compliance | Full material traceability, TSE/BSE-free, FDA-compliant elastomers |
| Pulsation / Accuracy | Nearly pulse-free flow; exceeds API 675 standards for repeatability, steady-state accuracy and linearity |
The PH70 is based on the industrial Model D35 Hydra-Cell Pro pump, which uses a pentaplex (five-pump-chamber) design. The pharmaceutical version incorporates a sanitary pump head with the following modifications:
The PH70 delivers a nearly pulse-free flow rate with accuracy that exceeds API 675 metering-pump standards for repeatability, steady-state accuracy and linearity. Its gentle pumping action is compatible with shear-sensitive liquids, while its seal-less reliability remains unmatched for pumping liquid slurries, abrasives, corrosives and non-lubricating fluids.
