Pomac Pumps
Hygienic pumping for food, beverage, dairy and pharmaceutical processing.
Specialist Hygienic Pumps
Pomac brings multiple pump types together within one hygienic range. Its portfolio includes centrifugal, self-priming, liquid ring, rotary lobe and channel impeller pumps – developed around cleanability and process requirements.
Match Pump Type to Product and Process
The right hygienic pump depends on the product and process.
- Centrifugal: Clean, lower-viscosity products where efficient, continuous high-flow transfer is the priority.
- Self-Priming: CIP return, tank emptying or other duties where reliable self-priming is required.
- Liquid Ring: Fluid with air or gas, including CIP return.
- Rotary Lobe: Viscous, shear-sensitive products where gentle positive displacement transfer helps limit product damage.
- Channel Impeller: Large products like fruit or vegetables.
What Pomac Does Differently
Pomac hygienic pump ranges include practical engineering features such as:
- Efficient Design: Narrow gaps and precision-manufactured impellers help optimise centrifugal performance.
- Cleanability: Pressure-relief holes on selected centrifugal ranges help to clean the shaft and seal chamber.
- Easy Maintenance: Front pull-out seals and inspection access help to simplify servicing.
- Flexible Configuration: Seal, elastomer and surface-finish options suit different product and process requirements.
Overview of our Pomac Range
Pomac hygienic centrifugal pumps provide smooth, efficient transfer of clean, low-viscosity products – where easy cleaning is important.
- Max flow: 500m3/hr
- Max head: 150m
- Max viscosity: 500cP

Select self-priming pumps where entrained air, foam or intermittent suction disrupt centrifugal priming while hygienic CIP remains essential.
- Max flow: 200m3/hr
- Max head: 90m
- Handles entrained air
- Automatic repriming
Pomac rotary lobe pumps offer gentle, reversible flow for viscous, shear-sensitive or particulate products – while preserving product integrity.
- Max flow: 110m3/hr
- Max pressure: 15 bar | up to 25 bar on request
- Low-shear product handling
- Reversible flow
Hygienic liquid ring pumps maintain stable flow where entrained air, gas or foam disrupt conventional centrifugal pumping.
- Max flow: 53m3/hr
- Max head: 45m
- Handles high air or gas content
- Automatic self-priming
Channel impeller pumps provide efficient, gentle transfer of low to medium viscosity products containing soft solids or larger particulates.

Pomac Pump FAQs
Prime’s Pomac range includes hygienic centrifugal, self-priming centrifugal, liquid ring, rotary lobe and channel impeller pumps. Each addresses different product and process conditions – from clean low-viscosity transfer to air-loaded products, high viscosities and large soft solids.
It depends on how air or gas affects the duty. Pomac Hygienic Self-Priming Pumps suit entrained air or gas and general self-priming applications. For higher air or gas content, foam or CIP return, Pomac Hygienic Liquid Ring Pumps may be more appropriate.
Consider a self-priming centrifugal pump when self-priming or entrained air is the main requirement. Liquid ring pumps are designed for duties with higher air or gas content – making them particularly relevant to CIP return and other gas-loaded processes.
A rotary lobe pump is the stronger option where higher viscosity, shear sensitivity or product integrity makes positive displacement and gentler handling more important. Hygienic centrifugal pumps are better aligned with clean, lower-viscosity products and continuous higher-flow transfer.
A channel impeller pump is worth considering where larger soft products need to pass through the pump with limited damage. Pomac’s range of channel impeller pumps are designed for products like potatoes, vegetables and fruit.
Pomac offers several pumps for hygienic food, beverage and pharmaceutical processes. Its self-priming and liquid ring pumps are specifically relevant to CIP return duties – while hygienic design, seal and surface-finish options vary by pump range and configuration.
