Certification

The European Hygienic Engineering & Design Group (EHEDG) is a consortium of equipment manufacturers, food industries, research institutes as well as public health authorities and was founded in 1989 with the aim to promote hygiene during the processing and packing of food products. More

3-A SSI is an independent, not-for-profit corporation dedicated to advancing hygienic equipment design for the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries.

FDA is responsible for protecting the public health by assuring the safety, efficacy and security of human and veterinary drugs, biological products, medical devices, our nation’s food supply, cosmetics, and products that emit radiation.

REGULATION (EC) No 1935/2004 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL of 27 October 2004 on materials and articles intended to come into contact with food

ATEX Directive (2014/34/EU): Machinery and equipment manufacturers, their authorized representatives, importers, or any persons responsible for placing a product on the market, must ensure that equipment falling under the ATEX Directive (2014/34/EU) prevents, or limits the impact to an adequate level of safety, an ignition of explosive atmospheres. As a visible sign of compliance with ATEX, the CE marking must be affixed to the equipment.

Options and accessories

Certa Compact Sine pump

Limited on space?

With a 30% reduction in footprint on the Certa Sine pump from MasoSine, the Certa Compact Sine pump is a compact solution for customers when space for an installation is limited.
As with all Certa Sine pumps, the Certa Compact delivers energy savings as it consumes up to 50% less power than lobe or circumferential pumps with exceptional performance for all applications, including handling highly viscous products.

O-ring seal system

To support customers with clean out of place (COP) processes, Certa pumps are offered with an ergonomic hinge and O-ring seal system. The hybrid system includes a hexagonal locking screw and O-ring seal system to support frequent assembly and disassembly without the need for specialist tools or training. The O-ring seal provides additional protection against system vibration and cavitation.

Other options and accessories

•Pump jacketing to maintain the duty fluid temperature
•Static and dynamic flush systems available
•Single mechanical seal or single mechanical seal with flush
•Double mechanical seal, either flushed only or pressurized
•Flush and double mechanical seal can be retrofitted without any modification

Certa clean in place

The video shows the MasoSine Certa pumps’ ability to clean in place even the toughest substances. For the purposes of this demonstration, mustard has been pumped and allowed to dry. Just cold water without a cleaning agent is then run through the pump, removing all traces of the mustard with ease.

Certa pumps are:

  • Designed for CIP cleaning and SIP sterilisation
  • Cleanability proven by EHEDG and 3A
  • Food compliance materials: FDA and EG 1935
