Circor International has announced the Zenith Pumps C-9000 clean-in-place (CIP) precision gear pump, engineered to support clean-in-Place capability without pump removal in demanding hygienic manufacturing environments.

By combining in-place cleaning with high-accuracy, pulse-free metering, the C-9000 helps manufacturers reduce downtime, streamline sanitation, and support hygiene compliance across critical process lines.

The C-9000 is designed to remain installed during cleaning cycles, enabling operators to execute clean-in-place procedures without physically removing the pump from the system. This in-place operation reduces manual intervention, shortens changeovers, and helps plants return to production more quickly. As a result, facilities can better align cleaning routines with production targets while maintaining consistent process integrity.

At the core of the C-9000 is a precision gear pump design that delivers high-accuracy metering performance for critical dosing and metering applications. Pulse-free metering helps maintain a smooth, consistent product flow, supporting reliable dispensing and reducing variability in sensitive formulations. This combination makes the C-9000 well suited for manufacturers who depend on both precise volume control and predictable line performance.

With applicability across food and beverage, and nutraceuticals, the C-9000 provides a versatile platform for process engineers seeking both cleaning efficiency and metering precision. By pairing clean-in-place capability without pump removal with high-accuracy, pulse-free metering, Zenith Pumps positions the C-9000 as a practical solution for facilities focused on uptime, hygiene, and long-term maintenance efficiency.
