After CIP cleaning, an additional sterilization in place process (SIP) may be required when highly
sensitive  products  are  handled,  inactivating  any  micro-organisms  which  might  be  still  present  in
the  pump.   The  sterilization  can  be  carried  out  by  means  of  chemicals,  hot  water  or  steam.    In
the  dairy  industry  the  sterilization  temperature  is  approximately  145 °C  (293  °F).  Contact  Ampco
Pumps in cases where temperatures will exceed 100 ºC (212 ºF).

Because the QTS pump is capable of high speeds it is important to specify the required RPM

values for CIP supply if available.

Normally when ordered, the QTS Pump is selected for both, the application and CIP supply.
