Ragazzini Rotho peristaltic pumps for wine industry

Ragazzini has selected Hydro Innovations to distribute its wine industry pumping range in Australia.

The Ragazzini Rotho peristaltic pumps have a gentle pumping action, with only the smooth and soft internal tube element in contact with the fluid. There is no contact with moving mechanical parts, no seals or valves. The Rotho peristaltic pumps do not damage the grapes, skins or seeds during the pumping process, which makes them suitable for other delicate food handling applications.

Features include: the use of food-grade hoses (which is the only component of the pump to come in contact with the pumped fluid); the capacity to pump solid particles; the (optional) retractable roller system which allows for fast CIP or SIP processes, and also enables users to remove the pressure from the hose during non-pumping periods, lengthening hose life; the standard early leak detection system can stop the pump and send an alarm, decreasing losses and downtime.

Rotho pumps can be used for dosing or metering small volumes [0.2 L/h] up to 180 m³/h, with pressures to 15 bar available.
