GoatThroat Pumps for Pharmaceutical Manufacturing

Recommended by several chemical companies, there is no doubt that GoatThroat® Pumps improve reliability and safety in pharmaceutical and medical manufacturing environments. Users all agree that spill prevention beats clean up with solvents, acids, and other corrosives. With the cost of chemicals, many facilities use GT Pumps because they are safe for contact with over 1,700 chemicals and meet exacting requirements. The sealed system is essential in such environments because it reduces vapors and emissions and allows for complete control over the volume of liquids dispensed. The SCP Line of Pumps which are made of static conductive plastic allows these pumps to be used with flammable liquids meeting both NFPA 77 and NFPA 30 requirements. All non-SCP pumps are made from Food Grade materials making them safe for food contact.

BioPharma Pumps

GoatThroat Pumps can provide Food Grade material hand pumps to meet the rigorous standards of medical-grade material standards. The Static Conductive Plastic(SCP) Series Pumps are well-suited for transferring flammable liquids like Alcohol or Ethanol. The SCP200S in particular is designed with Santoprene seals that work the best for Acetone, Isopropyl Alcohol, Ethanol, and MEK. It is only one of many pump configurations that qualify for use in pharmaceutical chemical production.

GoatThroat has worked with thousands of chemicals to determine the safest and most proper method for handling the transfer of chemical materials. No matter which chemical reactions your facility uses to refine the medical product or chemical material, we have the pumps to handle them correctly. Quality pumps like the GT100 with Nitrile Seals can handle ether chemical compounds or GT200 with Santoprene seals can push vast amounts of Acetone. With our pumps, you can make your facility operate cleanly, efficiently, and safely.

Contact GoatThroat before finalizing your pump purchase decision to get help determining the best solution for your chemical handling procedures. Pharmaceutical materials vary drastically from product to product and you will inevitably need specialized equipment to handle them without incident. Put your expertise together with our knowledge of Material Safety Data to create the optimal chemical production pump solutions for your company.

OPEN USE STORAGE  - AN OPEN AND CLOSED CASE

GoatThroat Allows Biopharmaceutical Company to Comply with Open Use Restrictions When a North Carolina biopharmaceutical company?s productivity was limited by the state fire code?s ?Open Use? restrictions, the company?s Environmental Safety Department found itself facing chemical storage challenges at a new level. Engaged in the design, discovery and development of NNR Therapeuticas, a new class of drugs for the treatment of multiple diseases and disorders of the central nervous system, the biopharmaceutical company used chemicals and solvents such as ether, methylene chloride, chloroform, hexane, ethyl acetate, isopropyl alcohol, methanol and toluene in its process. The company?s productivity problem stemmed from fire codes specifying that five-gallon containers of these types of fluids had to be stored on the first floor of their facility, when actually the solvents were needed in the lab on the fourth floor. Safety is Compromised The complicated logistics were dictated by restrictions in the fire codes, which...

PUTTING SOLVENTS IN THEIR PLACE

Manufacturer Makes Huge Improvements to Chemical Storage Practices Thanks to GoatThroat Old ways of doing business are acceptable today if they comply with regulations and get the job done efficiently. A Florida-based manufacturer was unable to meet both of those goals in its production process for precision wire and ultra-fine wire used in microelectronic and semiconductor applications. "This company's initial challenge was to protect the workers and limit the downside risks of damages, hefty fines and litigation fees, and public relations disasters -- and save money," said Nancy Westcott of Westcott Distribution Inc. The production process uses numerous solvents and coatings that must be transferred from 55-gallon drums to transfer containers. Workers tapped and tipped the drums and then dispensed the chemicals from leaky spigots into open transfer containers,with additional handling required to transfer the fluids to their point of use. The gravity-fed process involved threading a brass fixture into...
