Product features
- Application-focused construction → Supports reliable selection for the actual process duty instead of generic pump or equipment replacement.
- Verified operating data → Helps engineering teams check flow, pressure, temperature and cleaning requirements before specification.
- Service-oriented design → Supports faster inspection and maintenance, reducing the risk of extended production stops.
- Hygienic or process-specific options → Helps match the series to food, beverage, dairy, pharmaceutical or industrial requirements.
- AxFlow selection support → Makes it easier to confirm the correct configuration, materials, seals and availability.
- Proven Waukesha technology → Supports stable product handling in demanding production environments.
- Cleanability considered in selection → Helps reduce contamination risk and supports consistent process quality.
- Spare parts and service focus → Supports maintenance planning and lifecycle cost control.
- Process continuity focus → Helps reduce downtime risk where transfer, heating, cooling or separation is production-critical.
- Quote-ready product guidance → Gives buyers a clear basis for discussing duty point, options and lead time with AxFlow.
Waukesha Universal RF is selected for very viscous and difficult products such as dough, meat emulsions, puddings and cheese that can bridge or cavitate in conventional pumps. It is relevant when product quality, cleanability, uptime and controlled operating conditions directly affect production performance. AxFlow can help assess whether this Waukesha Cherry-Burrell series fits the required duty point, process media and installation environment.
The series is built around Waukesha Cherry-Burrell process technology for rectangular-flange positive displacement pump. The construction is intended to support stable operation, practical maintenance access and correct integration into existing process lines. Selection should consider media behaviour, viscosity, temperature, cleaning method, connection requirements and the required level of service access.
Key selection data include flow up to 150 m³/h, differential pressure up to 34.5 bar, temperature range from -40 °C to 149 °C and viscosity capability up to 1,000,000 cSt. Six models are available with rectangular inlet ports from 38 x 120 mm to 127 x 441 mm for hopper or tank-bottom feed arrangements. These data should be compared with the actual operating window before specification, especially where product sensitivity, particles, viscosity or cleaning validation influence equipment choice.
For maintenance and total cost of ownership, the main value is the combination of process-fit construction, service planning and available AxFlow support. Correct selection helps reduce the risk of unplanned downtime, protects product continuity and gives procurement and engineering teams a clearer basis for spare parts, service and future replacement decisions.
