Transferring Corrosive Fluids like Mustard & Vinegar with Food Grade Pumps

Transferring corrosive foods can quickly damage standard pumps. Graco’s FDA-grade Husky AODD pumps, built with food-rated materials and corrosion-resistant components, deliver safe, reliable performance for challenging food applications.

The Problem: Difficulty Transferring Corrosive Foods

Mustard and vinegar are two important products people definitely want to buy whether they need mustard for their hot dog or vinegar for their salad dressing. However, there’s a problem when it comes to transferring these materials and that’s the fact they are extremely corrosive and have the capability to quickly degrade stainless steel pumps.

The Solution: FDA Grade Double Diaphragm Pumps

The solution to these challenging material transfer issues is a specific set of purpose-driven configurations of the Husky AODD pump line. When it comes to mustard, air-operated double diaphragm pumps are preferred as this material can damage piston pump seals.

When you select a 1, 1.5 or 2 inch polypropylene Husky Pump, you are getting a food rated fluid section and manifolds.

 

When coupled with: 

  • PTFE (standard or overmolded) or Santoprene Diaphragms
  • Stainless Steel, Polypropylene, or PTFE Seals and Check Balls

You get a complete pump with FDA compliant materials that can hold up against the corrosive nature of vinegars/acidic ingredients that you are pumping.
