High temperature pumps: Wangen Progressing Cavity pump MX series

Wangen Progressing Cavity pump MX Series

High dosing accuracy for demanding hygienic processes

The Wangen Progressing Cavity MX Series is engineered to meet the highest hygienic and process requirements of the Food & Beverage industry. Designed for precise dosing and gentle conveying, the MX ensures high dosing accuracy and repeatability – even with viscous, shear‑sensitive or particulate media. The optional EvenWall stator technology provides uniform elastomer wall thickness, resulting in low‑pulsation, continuous flow, stable pressure levels and consistent volumetric accuracy. This enables reliable metering at both low and high pressures while reducing mechanical stress, heat build‑up and drive power. Thanks to its compact, modular design, CIP/SIP capability and easy maintenance, the MX Series delivers maximum process reliability, excellent cleanability and long service life in demanding hygienic applications.

The MX Series includes application-specific variants:

MX-S as a robust standard pump
MX-R hopper pumps for highly-viscous or non-flowing media
MX-T immersions pumps for efficient tank emptying
MX-F allows drum and hopper draining via follower plate

Wide viscosity range

Wangen Progressing Cavity pumps are ideal for demanding hygienic conveying and dosing of aqueous to highly viscous media. Low-impact delivery of products containing solids. These pumps are available as mobile or stationary units.

Key features and benefits

Flexible modular design for maximum application fit

The modular MX design allows easy adaptation to a wide range of applications. Interchangeable components enable customized pump configurations, simplify maintenance, reduce downtime and ensure the optimal solution for specific process requirements.

Low‑impact and product‑friendly pumping

The Wangen^TMProgressing Cavity pump MX Series ensures gentle, low‑pulsation conveying of sensitive and particulate media. Product integrity is preserved while maintaining high dosing accuracy and reliable process control.

Quick and easy to clean

Hygienic design with minimal dead space allows fast and efficient cleaning. The MX Series is fully CIP/SIP‑compatible, reducing cleaning time, downtime and operational effort.

Up to 10 bar per stage with EvenWall

EvenWall technology enables up to 10 bar pressure per stage while ensuring uniform elastomer stress. This allows stable, high‑pressure operation with continuous flow, high dosing accuracy and extended stator service life.

Heating or cooling options for temperature control

The MX Series can be equipped with heating or cooling jackets to control product temperature inside the pump. This prevents solidification, viscosity changes or overheating, ensuring stable flow and consistent product quality for temperature‑sensitive food media.

Options

Customized Solutions

We offer a large selection of accessoires which are perfectly matched to pur product range, providing the odeal complement or adaption to your inidvidual requirements and allowing you to create your own customized solution.

Monitoring and Control Options

Integrated temperature and pressure sensors to prevent the pump running dry and the excessive build-up of pressure. Frequency converters allow precise flow control and support stable, process-safe operation.

Hygenic Material Option

Choose between stainless steel 1.4301 or 1.4571 for casing, pressure and suction flange. Stators are available in NBR, FPM, silicon, EPDM, pressure-stable EvenWall designs or solid stators made of POM to ensure hygenic, durable performance.

Stator and Rotor Variants

Rotors and Stators in up to 8 pressure stages and available as S-, L-, and H geometric forms.

ATEX Certification

Pump manufactured in accordance with the ATEX guidelines for use in areas with potentially explosive atmospheres.

Viscous Media Handling

Stainless steel cardan joints, optionally with sleeve, combined with a feed screw ensure reliable and continous pumping of highly viscous media.
