Type 1: Waukesha-Type Carlsen Positive Displacement Pumps

Used worldwide in wine, beer, dairy, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, the Waukesha is a household name in our country. When you look at a Waukesha-type Carlsen pump, you're looking at that same robust design, made in the very plant where Waukesha pumps used to be made. It's the strongest and gentlest wine pump and must pump in our industry.
This self-priming pump will not increase solids or vegetal characteristics in wine during must pumping or pumpovers. Enjoy lower dissolved oxygen and more work done with less stress on the wine.
Carlsen's own Waukesha-type head and rotors, made in that same American plant, are added to an all-star list of Carlsen-specific parts in an unbeatable combination. From the pump head to the cart to the variable frequency drive, it's uniquely Carlsen. Others may offer a Waukesha-style head on a cart, but you won't find our warranty, support, service or knowledge elsewhere.
Waukesha-Type Carlsen Pump Sizes and Uses
Our Waukesha-type Carlsen pumps come in six sizes, sized in gallons per minute. The W30 through W130 run on 220V single phase, 208/230V three phase, or 480V three phase; the W220 and W320 are three phase only (208/230V or 480V). Specify at time of order.

Type 2: Yamada Air Diaphragm Pumps

Yamada pumps are a cost-effective, food-grade, simple, easy-to-maintain pump that's great for barrel topping, transfers, some types of filtration, and pumping out a press pan. They run on compressed air, not electricity.
One neat feature: you can set the pressure output on the on-board regulator to a level that lets you close the downstream valve without yelling at someone to stop the pump 100 feet away.
The only possible downside is the need for compressed air. You probably need an air compressor anyway, so that's not the end of the world. Yamada owners enjoy the light weight, portability, functionality, and low risk of blowing up a hose.
