This unit was beyond economical repair so a new one was purchased. Due to delivery requirements, a new pump was purchased from a Caterpillar dealer and net price was around $1200.00, pretty pricey for a gear pump. Pumping milk? No idea what so ever. Does it have to be a positive displacement pump? Cant be a centrfugal pump? There must be something out there in the food industry. Ive seen it twice.

Have you seen that problem more than once? I'd be curious what it cost to fix. On another note, do you have any details on whether an internal or external gear pump is best for a sanitary transfer of milk fluid? I'm not finding much on the internet besides this <a href="http://www.pumpscout.com/all-pump-types/gear-pumps-ptid21.html">gear pump</a> basic description. I need of some more detail if you have any suggestions. Thanks. This is really interesting. Have you seen that problem more than once? I’d be curious what it cost to fix.
