APPLICATION
As a general rule, the most common application of HYGINOX SEN pumps in their standard version is in the food
processing industry, mainly to transfer liquids.
For each type of the pump, the hydraulic performance is given by the choice of impeller diameters and speeds. The
characteristic curves also show the power and NPSH requirements. The intended use of the pump is defined by its
characteristic curve and operating limits provided in the Technical Specifications section.
Misuse of the pump or its use beyond the operating limits may be dangerous or cause permanent damage
to the equipment.
