Frequently Asked Questions

While third-party homogenizer replacement parts may seem appealing due to their lower cost, focusing solely on the initial price can lead to unexpected expenses down the line. These alternative parts are often cheaper because they may be made with lower-quality materials or skip critical manufacturing steps, such as proper grinding or polishing. As a result, they may wear out faster or fail prematurely. In industries like dairy, food and pharmaceuticals, where equipment performance and sanitation are paramount, using non-genuine parts can compromise product quality, compliance, and safety. For consistent reliability and long-term value, investing in genuine spare parts is essential.

Yes, using third-party parts will void your homogenizer’s warranty. Genuine parts are engineered to fit perfectly and function seamlessly within the original equipment’s design. Even minor deviations in precision can reduce efficiency, create safety risks, or cause unplanned downtime. Protect your investment by sticking to authentic spare parts.

SPX FLOW’s global partner network ensures that genuine Rannie® and Gaulin® homogenizer replacement parts are readily available to minimize downtime. Our trained partners can also provide expert installation services whenever needed.

Homogenizer failure is often caused by poor feed conditions, improper maintenance, worn seals or valves, contamination, or incorrect operating conditions. Following the manufacturer’s maintenance guidelines and using genuine APV parts can prevent these issues, ensuring optimal performance and longevity.

Preventive maintenance schedules depend on operating hours and the homogenizer model. For APV Rannie® and Gaulin® homogenizers, routine checks on components such as packings, gaskets, and valves are essential. Daily, weekly, and monthly inspections, along with comprehensive annual servicing, will extend equipment life and improve reliability.

First, check for worn homogenizing valves, leaks in seals or packings, and ensure proper lubrication. Inspect for feed line blockages or product inconsistencies. If the issue persists, SPX FLOW offers expert troubleshooting and repair services for APV Rannie® and Gaulin® homogenizers.

Inconsistent flow can result from blocked or undersized suction lines, worn valves, or air inclusion or low feed pressure. Be particularly careful if a product formulation changes, for example a higher viscosity recipe may be more difficult to pump to the homogenizer with existing equipment. Ensure the product is properly prepared, and check for leaks or unusual suction pressure fluctuationsblockages. Installation and cCalibration according to SPX FLOW guidelines and genuine replacement parts will optimize performance.

Always fFollow the manufacturer’s cleaning instructions., which typically include disassembling components, using approved cleaning agents, and thorough rinsing. Regular cleaning ensures optimal performance and compliance with hygiene standards.

To maximize the lifespan of your homogenizer, follow a regular maintenance schedule, use genuine APV parts, and ensure optimum feed conditionsproper lubrication. Train operators to handle the equipment correctly and minimize unnecessary strain.
