Overview
The QUANTM Hygienic Pharmaceutical Grade (PH) series is an electric double diaphragm pump designed to help pharmaceutical and biotech facilities cut energy costs while maintaining strict compliance. Constructed with 316L Stainless Steel and a 20 Ra micro-inch finish, it ensures full regulatory compliance for biopharmaceuticals and medical creams. With an XT motor providing 8X more torque at low speeds and up to 80% greater efficiency than AODD models, the PH series typically pays for itself in under 12 months through energy savings and rebates.
Performance & Reliability
The PH series delivers a smooth, steady flow ideal for sensitive in-process and filling applications. It features a unique stall-under-pressure capability that prevents pump failures during line clogs or valve closures, eliminating the need for expensive external controllers or pressure sensors. The sealless, self-priming design allows for safe dry-running, significantly reducing maintenance downtime and contamination risks.
Materials & Construction
Engineered for hygiene, the PH series utilizes overmolded diaphragm plates with PTFE on the fluid side and EPDM on the air side to eliminate bacterial crevices. All wetted materials meet FDA and USP Class VI sanitation standards. The entire pump is IP66 wash-down rated, providing robust protection in environments where rigorous daily cleaning and sterilization are required.
Motor & Controls
Smart controls are integrated directly into the pump body, allowing for manual flow and pressure adjustment with the simple turn of a dial. For facility-wide automation, a standard I/O port enables remote start/stop control and speed management via a plant PLC. The intelligent auto-prime feature automatically restarts the priming sequence if fluid is not detected, ensuring continuous throughput.
Installation & Serviceability
Designed as a plug-and-play solution, the QUANTM PH series fits into standard AODD footprints and supports 120V, 240V, and 480V installations. Its quick-knockdown design featuring tri-clamp or DIN connections is optimized for Clean-In-Place (CIP) applications. With fewer moving parts than traditional air-driven or electric gear-driven pumps, it simplifies maintenance and lowers long-term operational costs.
Applications
The QUANTM Pharmaceutical series is ideal for the handling of medical creams, lotions, and pharmaceutical solvents. Its ultra-clean surface finish and low-shear operation make it the perfect upgrade for facilities transferring shear-sensitive biopharmaceuticals, vaccines, and blood products.
