MasoSine Sinusoidal Process Pumps
At Industrial Air Services, we help facilities select MasoSine sinusoidal process pumps for gentle, efficient transfer of viscous, shear-sensitive and solids-containing products.
From our location in LaVergne, Tennessee, we support facilities throughout Central and East Tennessee, including Nashville, Smyrna, Murfreesboro, Lebanon, Clarksville, Cookeville, Chattanooga and Knoxville.
MasoSine pumps use a sinusoidal rotor to create smooth, low-pulsation flow. Their gentle pumping action helps preserve product texture, appearance and consistency while providing the suction performance needed to transfer difficult, high-viscosity materials.
How MasoSine Pumps Work
A single sinusoidal rotor creates four evenly sized chambers inside the pump. As the rotor turns, these chambers move product from the inlet toward the discharge.
A gate separates the inlet and outlet sides. This operating principle produces smooth flow with minimal pulsation and helps limit the mechanical forces that can damage sensitive products.
For facilities handling thick mixtures or products with soft solids, sinusoidal pumping can help maintain product quality throughout the transfer process.
Certa and Certa Compact Process Pumps
MasoSine Certa pumps are designed for hygienic food, beverage and process applications. They combine low-shear handling with strong suction, efficient viscous-fluid transfer and a cleanable design.
Common applications include:
Dairy products and cheese curds
Sauces, soups and dressings
Bakery fillings and dough-related mixtures
Fruit concentrates
Meat and poultry products
Brewing ingredients and yeast
Personal-care products
Other viscous or shear-sensitive materials
The Certa range includes multiple sizes for different flow, pressure and particle-handling requirements. Certa Compact configurations use the same sinusoidal pumping principle where installation space is limited.
Industrial Air Services can help review product characteristics, production requirements and available space to identify an appropriate configuration.
Certa Plus Process Pumps
Certa Plus pumps are designed for pharmaceutical and biotechnology processes that require high-purity materials, cleanability and gentle handling.
The design combines low-shear, low-pulsation transfer with a self-draining wet end. Available materials and certifications should be reviewed against the facility’s hygienic or aseptic process requirements.
Pump selection should also account for cleaning procedures, operating temperatures and the sensitivity of the material being transferred.
SPS Process Pumps
MasoSine SPS pumps serve industrial transfer applications involving viscous, sensitive or solids-containing materials.
The SPS range combines strong suction with low-shear pumping across a wide range of product viscosities. Its straightforward wet-end design allows routine maintenance to be performed in place without removing the entire pump from the process line.
For facilities transferring thick process mixtures, SPS pumps offer an option where product handling and maintenance access are important considerations.
Why Choose MasoSine Pumps?
Gentle, low-shear product transfer

MasoSine Sinusoidal Pumps FAQ
What is a MasoSine pump?
A MasoSine pump is a positive-displacement process pump that uses a sinusoidal rotor to move product through pumping chambers. This creates gentle, low-pulsation flow for viscous, shear-sensitive and solids-containing materials.
How is a sinusoidal pump different from a rotary lobe pump?
A sinusoidal pump uses a single wave-shaped rotor and a gate that separates the inlet and outlet. A rotary lobe pump uses rotating lobes to move product. Sinusoidal technology can offer advantages in shear, pulsation and viscous-product transfer, depending on the application and the pumps being compared.
What is the difference between Certa, Certa Compact, Certa Plus and SPS pumps?
Certa pumps serve hygienic food, beverage and process applications. Certa Compact provides the same pumping principle in a configuration suited to limited installation space. Certa Plus addresses pharmaceutical and biotechnology requirements, while SPS pumps serve a broader range of industrial transfer applications.
Can MasoSine pumps handle high-viscosity products?
Yes. MasoSine pumps are designed to transfer viscous products. Practical performance depends on the pump model, operating speed, product temperature, suction piping and material characteristics. Proper inlet design is especially important when handling thick products.
Can MasoSine pumps handle solids?
Yes. Depending on the model and configuration, MasoSine pumps can transfer soft solids while helping preserve their shape. Pump selection should account for particle dimensions, concentration and sensitivity to damage.
Are MasoSine pumps suitable for food processing?
Yes. Certa pumps are designed for hygienic food and beverage applications. The selected model, seals, materials and certifications should be checked against the facility’s food-contact and sanitation requirements.
What does low shear mean?
Low shear means limiting the mechanical forces applied to a product during pumping. This helps protect the texture and consistency of materials such as cheese curds, fruit mixtures, sauces and personal-care products.
Do MasoSine pumps create pulsation?
MasoSine pumps are designed to produce smooth flow with very little pulsation. This can support consistent downstream processing and may reduce the need for additional pulsation-control equipment, depending on the installation.
Can a MasoSine pump run in both directions?
MasoSine pumps offer reversible pumping capability. Before reversing operation, confirm the selected configuration and associated piping, controls and protective devices are suitable for flow in both directions.
Are MasoSine pumps easy to maintain?
MasoSine pumps are designed to allow routine wet-end maintenance in place. Maintenance access and component replacement procedures vary by model, so follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the installed pump.
Why is my MasoSine pump losing flow or suction?
Possible causes include worn internal components, excessive clearances, restricted inlet piping, air leaks, incorrect speed or changes in product viscosity and temperature. Reviewing both the pump and the surrounding system helps identify the cause.
What information is needed to select a MasoSine pump?
Useful information includes the product being pumped, viscosity, temperature, required flow, discharge pressure, particle size and suction conditions. Cleaning procedures, food-contact requirements and available installation space also influence selection.
Can Industrial Air Services help with MasoSine pump service needs?
