Apparatus for Conveying a Medium, Preferably Milk

Abstract In the apparatus, medium, preferably milk, is conveyed from a delivery tank (1) into a receiving tank (2) by means of at least one pump. The suction side of the pump (8) is in flow connection with the delivery tank (1) and its pressure side with the receiving tank (2). The tank has at least one chamber (23 to 25) into which a feed line (26 to 28) opens. The chamber (23 to 25) is provided with a flushing line (35 to 37) which is flow-connected to the pressure side of the pump (8) via the suction side and in which there is a shut-off valve (40 to 42). At the end of the pumping process, the flushing line (35 to 37) is opened so that the supply line (26 to 28) leading to the receiving tank (2) can be flushed using the bubble-free and foam-free medium in the receiving tank (2).
