The high-pressure pump is designed for system pressures up to 64 bar. This pump series is suitable for the use in industries with high demands to hygiene and reliability. A typical application area for the new high-pressure pump is membrane filtration like Reverse Osmosis (RO) and Nano Filtration (NF) in the dairy, food and beverage industry.
Corresponds to the highest hygiene requirements
Produced of high-quality materials that meet the strict global hygiene standards, GEA Hilge HYGIA H also offers maximum flexibility. The materials used for HYGIA H pumps have been carefully selected for their use in hygienic processes. The housings, for example, are made of forged CrNiMo (1.4404) and guarantee optimum cleanability due to the smooth, pore- and blowhole-free surface.
Certified pump design
The GEA Hilge HYGIA H pumps are CIP and SIP capable according to the performance criteria for pumps. The 3-A certified series is based on the proven design of the HYGIA pumps. The extensive customer and requirement specific documentation and certificates facilitate the qualification of the pump in the plant.
Service-friendly concept due to quick and easy replacement of wearing parts
The quick-opening pump housing of the HYGIA H series allows easy access to the wearing parts. Thanks to an extensive range of mechanical seals, a wide variety of media and applications can be covered. Furthermore, with only three seal sizes for the entire performance range, wear part inventory is minimized.
The patented Adapta design (HYGIA H I & II), made of corrosion-free stainless steel, enables quick and easy motor replacement, allowing the pump to remain in the pipeline. The compact L design (HYGIA H III) and the Adapta design as well enables the use of a norm motor.

The breakthrough that changed spray drying
In 1976, NIRO engineers responded to a competitive challenge by rethinking what spray drying could do. Their idea became the multi-stage dryer MSD. Fifty years later, the same fundamental principle helps turn liquids into the powders used in essential nutrition products and important medicines around the world. Refined through decades of engineering expertise, customer insight and continuous development, MSD is a story of innovation with lasting impact.

Beyond the machine: unlocking better plant performance
An efficient machine does not automatically make an efficient factory. Real improvement often starts by looking beyond individual equipment and understanding how processes, energy systems and operating decisions affect one another. It’s a holistic approach designed to uncover opportunities that might otherwise be missed.

How a valve reshapes the way food and drinks are made
In food and beverage plants, valves are commonly operated using compressed air. GEA Hydract® Actuation Technology moves valves with water instead, in a closed, digitally controlled circuit. The result is a valve that can be held exactly in place and steered in fine-tuned steps. This results in lower energy use and greater control.
