Anyone using this large sanitary chinese pump?

I know this may be a stretch because most home brewers wont use something this big but.

This would be for a small brew pub where we may purchase a couple. I've seen these pumps for sale all over amazon ,ebay, aliexpress and alibaba but no reviews..

I see the come in 120v 220v and 380v configurations and im assuming the 220v and 380 versions may be controlled with the right VFD?

Other than maybe cleaning what the heck would you use it for????

Well as stated it's for a 3bbl brewery and most brewers are using a similarly sized pump in pro setups. I would use this one from CIP as well as whirlpooling. And with our keg cleaning system.
I have purchased one so I'll see first hand how it works.

220v could be 1 phase or 3 phase, 380v is 3 phase. The 3 phase motors may be able to be used with a VFD but I would check with the manufacturer before throwing a drive on it. Many small motors will overheat when put on a drive or don’t have the proper windings to handle one.

If you're in the market for another one, looks like they're less than $250 now.

yes

yes

Did you run 220v option? Did you use with a VFD?

no I went with the regular 120v pump and control flow with a butterfly valve.

 

[augiedoggy]

If I need to control flow speed for pumping beer I use our TD5 dc pumps with the pwm speed control

 

[aeviaanah]

Where you serving out of?

 

[augiedoggy]

Where you serving out of?

We use a td5 to pump beer from our conicals to our brite tanks currently until our unitanks arrive I like to turn the flow down on the pump because of the damaging effects of sheer force Ive read about on probrewer.
