GEA Hilge CONTRASingle- and Multi-stage Pumps for Advanced Applications

GEA VARIPUMP

GEA Hilge CONTRA Adapta-SUPER

These pumps are CIP- and SIP-capable, meeting the world‘s

highest hygiene standards. Apart from ASME and ANSI

connections, a flexible range of custom connections is available

upon request.

Furthermore, the pumps meet GMP requirements and use

FDA-approved materials.

Certified Safe Performance for your Demanding Processes

The GEA Hilge CONTRA range in the GEA VARIPUMP line offers single or multi-stage, end-suction centrifugal pumps designed in accordance with Qualified Hygienic Design (QHD) criteria and with EHEDG certification.

High quality throughout

The pumps are constructed with the use of deep-drawn and/or

forged stainless steel materials in quality AISI 316L, which

guarantee a pore and blowhole-free surface, as opposed to

cast material.

The GEA Hilge CONTRA range pumps have semi-open impellers,

the multi-stages pumps also have open diffusors. The O-ring

seal locations for the casing and impellers meet hygienic

design criteria with metal-to-metal contact seal areas and no

pump casing dead ends. The vertical versions of the GEA Hilge

CONTRA pumps are fully self-draining through the suction port.
