Meet the OENO POM PE The mul ti-function Smar t Pump wi th buil t-in Fl ow Meter
The OENOPOMPE, from PMH VINICOLE is a featurepacked helical lope wine pump designed for precision winemaking that allows continuous, smooth, jolt-free flow. Available in multiple configurations, the most popular version includes an accurate electromagnetic flow meter for precision tank or barrel filling, blending, or transfers. The OENOPOMPE comes standard with a wireless rechargeable remote allowing users to control the direction and speed of the pump by the remote display. No longer is someone required to be at the pump to control long transfers! The innovative touchscreen allows users to quickly and easily set the pumping mode and display or set volume with the OENOFLUX flow meter. Demanded around the world, the PMH VINICOLE OENOPOMPE is quickly gaining popularity in North America for its ease of use, precision, and convenience.
The OENOPOMPE is packed with features that you will benefit from year round. The helical lobe pump is touted to deliver up to five times less dissolved oxygen during transfers. The helical lobes are designed especially for the wine-making industry and are built from ultradurable material that handle many processes in the winery including pumping juice, wine, alcohol, hightemperature juices, and cleaning products.
The smart display touchscreen lets
users quickly change to various modes that are pre-programmed in the pump. For example, the barrelfilling program takes advantage of the two pressure sensors and/or flow meter. For example, the user can set a volume of 50gal and the pump automatically turns off when the volume is reached. Pumping can easily be resumed on the next barrel by using the wireless remote when the user is ready. Traditional racking done by sight can take advantage of the built-in pressure sensors. By closing the racking nozzle valve, the pump will detect the pressure spike automatically and turn off the pump to prevent over pressurization and reduce the risk of lines bursting. The pump automatically resumes when the valve is reopened. The concern of back feeding is solved with OENOPOMPE, as the butterfly valve automatically opens and closes as pumping is demanded or stopped. A run dry sensor prevents the pump from unnecessary damage effortlessly and automatically.
Built for the modern winery, the pump can be integrated into existing automations. The connectivity port (option) can be integrated with the Pellenc SmartGlass, a digital sight glass that can detect changes in the fluid such as wine, water, charcoal, air, etc. The SmartGlass adds another level of detection to the OENOPOMPE that dramatically increases the accuracy and precision of the daily operations in the cellar. One of the most exciting features of the OENOPOMPE is the integrated flow meter. With a 99.7 per cent accuracy rate, the electromagnetic flow meter is perfect for precision barreling operations, blending and transfers. Because of the electromagnetic technology, the flow meter is non-invasive and is cleaned and sanitized at the same time as lines and pumps. The OENOFLUX flow meter is also capable of operating and measuring at temperatures up to 140°C (284°F) making it extremely versatile.
Available in multiple sizes ranging from 60 to 260 gpm units (130- 600hl/h), finding the right size pump for your application is easy. The OENOPOMPE can be ordered with standard fittings that work in your winery including Tri-clover, DN40/50/70, MACON, SMS, DIN, etc.
