The 365it Complete is the first PMO mix-proof valve that does not require a full port leakage chamber and meets 3-A Sanitary Standard 85-02, which includes cleaning via valve seat lifting for use in dairy plants. Compared to traditional mix proof valves, the 365it Complete weighs less, loses less CIP during seat lifting and uses less air. By combining the 365it Complete PMO with the IntelliTop 2.0, processors receive maximum efficiency and safety in a smaller footprint.

piCLASSIC is Piab’s upgraded vacuum pump series based on COAX technology. Suitable for a wide range of handling applications in the dairy field with large capacities despite its small size and low weight, the piCLASSIC is designed with greater efficiencies than previous pumps in this size class. With an initial high amount of flow, there is no need for expensive vacuum tanks and vacuum valves that are usually needed on machines performing at high rates of speed using rotary vane pumps. With its compressed air source for energy, the piCLASSIC is easy to turn on/off, thus making it ideal for operations that only need vacuum intermittently - a great energy saver.

MasoSine now offers a 20-year warranty on Sine pump housing. Unlike lobe pumps, MasoSine food and beverage pumps are engineered for a long service life without the high cost or inconvenience of off-site factory remanufacturing or reconditioning. Customers can eliminate inventory of custom parts for reconditioned lobe pumps because Sine pump parts are always the same size. Plus, with a single shaft and rotor, there is no need for the complex timing gears and multiple seals associated with conventional rotary lobe pumps.

The Gamajet-88 is a rotary impingement system designed specifically for tanker cleaning. The Gamajet-88 creates high-impact jets, which scour the tank interior, blasting residue from the surface. What makes the Gamajet-88 different from traditional Gamajet machines is the utilization of two machines to specifically focus the impact at the bulkheads. These dual machines work in unison to offer a concise global indexing pattern that covers the entire tanker with twice as many passes at the bulkheads, resulting in the most efficient and effective cleaning in under 20 minutes with 75% less water and chemicals than any other process.
