Product Recovery Catcher

Increase your product yields and reduce CIP costs by recovering the residual product left behind in the lines from your food, beverage, or pharmaceutical processing. Use this Product Recovery System, which is a simple, economical and efficient way to recover your residual product. It is also a reliable tool for product separation during changeovers, preventing costly "mixed phases", or missed splits.

Design
Consisting of a launcher, a catcher, and a one-piece solid molded polyurethane projectile (known as a "pig"), this complete system is designed for use with standard sanitary tubing, sanitary hose, full-port ball valves, and standard tube fittings including 90° elbows.

The launcher and catcher are constructed of 316L stainless steel and feature all Tri-Clamp® connections for easy vertical or horizontal installation. 

Pigs
With proper handling, these sanitary polyurethane pigs will provide a long, trouble-free service life. After each use, the pig can typically be cleaned with hot water flush up to 200°F with minimal scrubbing. If a detergent or other cleaning agent is used, be sure the pig is adequately rinsed to remove any residual material from the pig. Ultraviolet sterilization is not recommended.

In addition to the simple urethane pig, you can also choose a pig that contains magnets in the ends which attract to the catcher to make the pig easier to retrieve. We also offer a magnetic pig with a sensor, which can be used with the catcher to notify you when the pig has completed the line, or additional sensors can be placed throughout the line that can be used to monitor the pig in your lines. The temperature rating for food grade polyurethane: -40° to 200°F(-40° to 93°C).
