Game-Changing Recyclable Pump Technology Optimises Manufacturing Efficiency
Quantex , a PSG ® brand , offers a unique and patented recyclable pump technology that is revolutionising liquid dispensing across industries . From consumer-facing dispensers in retail environments , hotels , offices , & vending machines , to industrial manufacturing lines in factories , Quantex is saving valuable time spent on cleaning , maintenance , and product replenishment , whilst providing an accurate and hygienic dispensing solution for food and beverage liquids .
These revolutionary , lightweight , plastic pumps form a part of the product ’ s primary packaging , similar to the way a wine tap is already fitted on a bag in box , except , rather than manually pressing the tap that allows the product to dribble out using gravity , the pump is clipped into a standard , low cost motor drive in the fixed equipment , and the product is dosed with precision , at a wide range of flowrates with high vacuum for effective bag evacuation .
When a product supply is finished you simply replace the bag and pump with a new bag and pump which means that no costly pump maintenance or calibration

is required . No fluid travels through the fixed parts of the machine and therefore , products can be swapped in and out of the same channels in seconds , without cross-contamination , providing valuable uptime for manufacturing lines .
The pumps are primary container agnostic , so can be attached to a rigid cartridge , pouch , vat , bottle , syringe , or jerry can for example . The simple mechanics in this system mean that equipment footprint is more compact and low cost compared to other pump systems like peristaltic or gear pumps .
The range of pumps available can accurately dose micro-volumes of highly concentrated flavourings or additives from as little as 24 µ L , to faster flow ingredients up to 75mL / s ( or 270L / h ). The pumps can handle very high viscosity fluids from honey , jams ( with seeds and fruit pieces smaller than 4mm in diameter ), mayonnaise , ketchup and relish , highly concentrated apple or orange juice , all dairy products up to the viscosity of sour cream , as well as high acid and high alkaline concentrates .
A reverse cycle capability combined with a valve on the outlet means dispensing can be completely drip-free if required , and there is flexibility with the configuration because the pump can sit above as well as below the product it is pumping .
