Our research team has changed the flow characteristics of a product.By my measurement,the viscosities of the ingredients now are in the 100-cP range,while previously 30-cP was the maximum.The researchers still are monkeying around with the batch mix schedule,so I don't have a final value on the flow properties.Thankfully,we use gear pumps for ingredients.The product ran about 20-cP,which allowed us to rely on our old 80-gal/min magnetic-drive centrifugal pump to send the product,which is a weak slurry,to a filter press.The total dynamic head is 148-ft-WC(about 64 psi).
