]]>The post pivaSiS pivaCON Vacuum Conveyor first appeared on pivasis.
]]>Controlled, safe and hygienic transportation of powder and granular materials along the production line is critical for quality, efficiency and occupational safety in the food, pharmaceutical, chemical and cosmetics industries.
The pivaCON Vacuum Conveyor developed by PivaSiS Engineering responds to this need with modern engineering solutions. With its compact structure, energy efficiency, GMP & FDA compliant hygienic design and ATEX certified safety, it sets a new standard in powder transfer.
– Closed and hygienic transport: pivaCON carries out the material transfer in a completely closed system. This eliminates the risk of dust spread, product loss and contamination.
– Product integrity: The raw material is protected from moisture, heat or environmental influences during transportation.
– Flexible integration: pivaCON can be integrated with bag emptying units, bigbag systems, screening or mixing units (pivaFiLL, pivaSiFT, pivaMiX, etc.).
– Automation compatibility: PLC-controlled versions can be equipped with automatic start/stop cycle, CIP modes and sensors.
– Quiet and efficient operation: Air flow is optimized, achieving high conveying capacity with low energy consumption.
pivaCON Vacuum Conveyor has been developed in accordance with GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) and FDA 21 CFR standards.
– Surface quality: All surfaces in contact with the product are made of AISI 316L stainless steel.
– Cleanability: The system is suitable for CIP (Clean-In-Place) or manual dry cleaning options.
– Gaskets: Elastomers that may come into contact with food and pharmaceuticals comply with the requirements of FDA 21 CFR 177.2600 and EC 1935/2004.
– Ease of assembly and disassembly: Tri-clamp connections and modular housing construction allow for quick disassembly and assembly.
– Validation files: IQ/OQ/PQ documentation for GMP applications can be provided together with material certificates and cleaning procedures.
pivaCON Vacuum Conveyor is designed to operate safely in Zone 20 indoor and Zone 21/22 outdoor conditions in accordance with ATEX 2014/34/EU directive.
– Antistatic structure: All components in contact with the product are potential equalized with grounding points.
– Pressure relief and filtration: Conical filters prevent product loss and protect the vacuum pump with high filtration efficiency.
– Explosion risk control: The appropriate category and temperature class is selected based on the ATEX assessment of the dust according to Kst, Pmax and MEC values.
– Certified equipment: Ex-marked sensor, valve and motor options are available for Zone 20-21-22 environments.
– Capacity: 50 kg/h to 15.000 kg/h
– Material: AISI 304 or 316L stainless steel
– Connections: Tri-clamp / DIN / ISO
– Filter system: Antistatic cartridge filters or Stainless Steel washable filters
– Vacuum source: Venturi or electric vacuum pump
– Options: CIP system, ATEX certification, automation control panel, level sensor, magnetic gripper
– Food industry: Milk powder, sugar, flour, starch, spices, cocoa, protein powders
– Pharmaceutical industry: API, excipient, granule, capsule pre-filling transfer
– Chemical industry: Pigments, dyes, additives, mineral powders
– Cosmetics industry: Talc, titanium dioxide, micronized powders
– Reduces dust emissions,
– Eliminates the need for manual handling,
– Improves ergonomics and operator safety,
– Stabilizes the production line.
Thanks to its ATEX and GMP-FDA compliant design, pivaCON becomes not only a piece of equipment but also part of the quality assurance system for food and pharmaceutical manufacturers.
The pivaCON Vacuum Conveyor represents PivaSiS Engineering’s expertise in hygienic, safe and intelligent powder transfer.
Customizable according to capacity, material type, product characteristics and plant conditions, pivaCON ensures contamination-free, ATEX-safe and validation-compliant transfer on your production line.

]]>The post pivaSiS Screen Unit first appeared on pivasis.
]]>Safe, hygienic and traceable sorting of powder and granular materials is the key to product quality and process continuity in food, pharmaceutical and chemical processes. PivaSiS Engineering’s Sieving Unit responds to this need with experience gained in the field and is designed with the aim of full compliance with GMP and FDA expectations, ATEX explosive environment requirements and hygienic design principles.
– Hygienic design: Easy-to-clean housing and connectivity with no dead spots on food and pharmaceutical contact surfaces; optimized for wet (CIP/SIP) or dry cleaning scenarios.
– Process safety: ATEX compliant housing, earthing, antistatic gasket and sleeve options reduce the risk of dust explosion.
– Quality and traceability: Screen wire, frame and contact surfaces can be traced back to the selected material quality (e.g. material certificates).
– Accurate product performance: Sieve aperture and vibration characteristics are determined by fluidity, bulk density and particle morphology. Optional integration of magnetic grippers or metal detectors is also possible.
Pharmaceuticals (cGMP – 21 CFR 211)
– Equipment construction: Surfaces in contact with the product must not be reactive, adsorptive or contaminating.
– Appropriate design and location: The equipment must be of a design and correctly positioned for the intended use.
– Cleaning and validation: The Screen Unit is handled together with cleaning validation, IQ/OQ/PQ files and change management.
Food (21 CFR 117 – FSMA cGMP)
– Sanitation and cleanability: Facilities and equipment should be of a size, design and construction to facilitate maintenance and sanitization.
– Food contact materials: Reg. (EC) 1935/2004 is taken into account for food contact on the European market.
Screening can operate in Zone 20 (internal), Zone 21/22 (external environment) classifications according to the target requirements.
Equipment group and category selection, temperature class, surface temperature and dust ignition parameters (Kst, Pmax, MEC etc.) are determined by risk assessment.
Precautions against static electricity: Grounding, potential equalization, antistatic hoses/gaskets and appropriate surface resistance values are considered.
– Materials: AISI 316L is preferred for product contact surfaces.
– Surface finish: Low roughness is targeted according to cleanability and contamination risk.
– Sieve modules: Accessible construction with certified mesh, quick-release clamps and tensioning system.
– Sealing and dust control: Highly efficient dust sealing, closed transmission and negative pressure operation options.
– Cleaning Spray cannons and drainage design for dry cleaning or CIP.
– Safety: Selection of sensors/actuators according to ATEX zoning, locking covers and grounding points.
Food: Sugar, milk powder, whey, flour/starch, spices – particle size control and foreign matter removal.
Pharma: APIs and excipients – pre/post granulation fractionation, capsule/pre-fill sieving.
The pivaSiFT Sieving Unit combines hygienic design, regulatory compliance and ATEX safety in food and pharmaceutical production; providing a clean, predictable and auditable sieving step. Your process specific configurations are evaluated in accordance with GMP & FDA, FSMA, EHEDG/EN 1672-2 and ATEX.
