Grundfos NOVAlobe

Established in 1947, the Danish food dressing company Graasten Salater A/S is Denmark’s leading manufacturer of tartar sauce together with over 30 variants of mayonnaise based mixtures of fish, shellfish, vegetables eggs and meat.

Due to increased customer demand Graasten Salater needed a more automated production process. Previously, employees manually transferred finished products from the production area to packaging. Because of the delicate composition of ketchups, mayonnaise and similar dressings the new pumps have replaced the manual process, which means they are now able to handle viscous liquids without affecting their composition.

Graasten Salater selected the Grundfos NOVAlobe due to its excellent viscosity-handling capabilities. In total, Grundfos installed six NOVAlobe sanitary pumps into the inlets of four key production tanks. The NOVAlobe was an ideal choice because of its easy-to-replace, front-loading seals, which are mounted in replaceable shaft sleeves, and its sterile design, ideal for aseptic processes.

The NOVAlobe, positive displacement pump, is suitable for a number of applications, including: beverage, liquid food, pharmaceutical and biotechnology, environment and surface treatment as well as general industrial applications.
