Alfa Laval SolidC-2M170 Centrifugal Pump

The Alfa Laval SolidC-2M170 is a reliable, hygienic centrifugal pump designed for standard-duty applications in industries such as food processing, dairy, beverages, and pharmaceuticals. It features a stainless steel construction with tri-clamp connections for easy cleaning and maintenance, adhering to sanitary standards like 3A and EHEDG. The pump is coupled with a 2 HP TECO Westinghouse premium efficiency motor, providing efficient fluid transfer with a maximum flow rate of up to 40 m³/h and head up to 45 meters, depending on configuration. Key benefits include cost-effective operation, simple installation, and low energy consumption compared to heavier-duty pumps like the LKH series. Drawbacks may include limited suitability for highly viscous fluids or extreme pressures, where more robust models are preferred. This unit appears used based on image analysis, with minor rust on the motor fan but overall good condition, including visible impeller and faceplate details like serial number 9613381636. It excels in clean-in-place (CIP) systems, offering advantages in hygiene and quick disassembly over non-sanitary alternatives.
