Used Niro Soavi NS3037-H High-Pressure Homogenizer – Up to 22,000 PSI with Alfa Laval Feed Skid, Rebuilt by GEA

Manufacturer Information

Niro Soavi / GEA

Niro Soavi homogenizers are industrial high-pressure processing machines designed to reduce particle or droplet size and improve the uniformity, stability, and consistency of compatible liquid products and dispersions.

This Niro Soavi Model NS3037-H homogenizer was built in 1993 and rebuilt by GEA in 2022. The system includes a separate feed skid incorporating an Alfa Laval positive displacement pump, L.J. Star bubble trap, Allegheny Bradford heat exchanger, and controls.

Description

Available for sale is a used Niro Soavi NS3037-H high-pressure homogenizer featuring 2507 stainless steel construction and a stated maximum operating pressure of up to 22,000 PSI.

The supplied capacity range is approximately 3,170 gallons per hour at 13,500 PSI to 211 gallons per hour at 22,000 PSI. The homogenizer is driven by a 40 HP, 1,190 RPM motor rated for 230/460V, 60 Hz, 3-phase electrical service.

The package includes a feed skid with an Alfa Laval GHPD positive displacement pump, Model SRU-4NLS, powered by a 5 HP gear motor with a 4.5:1 ratio. Additional components include an L.J. Star bubble trap and Allegheny Bradford heat exchanger with shell and tubes rated at 150 PSI from -20°F to 350°F.

Two control panels are included, and both major pieces are mounted on casters for easier positioning and installation.

Originally built in 1993, the homogenizer was rebuilt by GEA in 2022, making this a potentially attractive high-pressure processing package for compatible emulsification, dispersion, particle-size reduction, and homogenization applications.
