Hygienic Pigs
HPS patented hygienic process pigs are specially designed for highly effective, reliable and efficient hygienic (sometimes called sanitary) pipeline pigging, Used by many of the world’s largest liquid processing companies, they’re suitable for a wide range of products. These include food and beverages, chemicals, paints, coatings, lubricating oils, household and homecare products, personal care liquids, pastes and gels, cosmetics and many other applications.
Ideal for product recovery, liquid transfer and pipeline cleaning, HPS pigs have a typical recovery efficiency of up to 99.5% from full pipelines. They’re guaranteed for 30,000 metres or 18 miles of use (unmatched in the industry), and travel around bends while maintaining full body contact.
HPS AccuTect Pig Detector
The HPS AccuTect pig detector (or pig detection system) is a device that determines the presence of an HPS pig when in it’s in close proximity. An essential component of pigging systems, pig detectors are usually located close to launch and receive stations, enabling highly efficient, safe and reliable operation − whether automated, semi-automated or manual.
The HPS AccuTect pig detector is the most advanced pig detection device available, determining the presence of an HPS pig when it’s in close proximity. Featuring an ultra-reliable detection signal, clear visual indication, and easy calibration, it’s ideal for hygienic (sanitary) and industrial environments.
Offering high levels of efficiency, reliability and performance, AccuTect pig detectors are used by many of the world’s largest liquid processing companies.
Pigging System Training
No matter how simple or complex your system is, we strongly recommend training for everyone who will work with your pigging, liquid transfer or process control solution.
Our high-quality product recovery and pigging system training is aimed at all personnel likely to operate, maintain or otherwise use the equipment. It ensures they fully understand the system and use it properly, effectively, and safely.
Pigging System Spares
From spare pigs and launch stations to seals and pig detectors, HPS carry a full stock of spare components and parts for hygienic and sanitary pigging systems.
Specifically set up to deal with all your spares questions, enquiries and orders, the HPS Spares Department provides top-quality service, help and support.
Hygienic Pigging Systems for Beverage Manufacturers
From soft drinks and fruit juices to wines, beers and spirits, HPS advanced liquid product recovery (‘pigging’) technology is the benchmark of the industry.
HPS pigging systems for beverage manufacturers are a convenient and highly cost-effective way of increasing yields, reducing waste, increasing production capacity, speeding up changeovers and CIP, and generally improving the process efficiency of beverage production.
As well as reducing product waste, HPS pigging systems also dramatically cut water and CiP chemical use.
Specially designed for beverage and hygienic (sanitary) applications, the unique HPS pig is made from food-grade materials and recovers up to 99.5% of residual liquids from full pipelines.
HPS pigs are bi-directional, and fully detectable, allowing full process automation. They do not contain solid magnets which can shatter or break, or fins which can allow product bypass and sometimes bend or tear.
HPS pigs can also travel around 1.5D bends while maintaining full body contact and so still fully recovering product.
From design to implementation, commissioning and after-sales support, HPS pigging and liquid transfer solutions are tailored to meet your exact needs and requirements.
