Device for separating the stalks of fruit such as cherries, grouped together in clusters, from one another at their joining point, includes at least one hydraulic circuit including a tank ( 1 ) receiving the fruit to be treated; a centrifugal pump ( 2 ) connected to the tank for sucking up the liquid and the fruit therefrom; and at least one filtration device ( 3 ) receiving the liquid and the fruit discharged by the pump and capable of separating the fruit from the liquid. The tank has a base ( 4 ) which converges downwards as far as a lower outlet orifice ( 5 ) of this tank. The pump includes a housing ( 7 ) and at least one pumping wheel ( 9 ) guided in rotation relative to the housing along an at least substantially vertical axis ( 10 ) of rotation, and the pump has an axial suction inlet ( 11 ) connected below the lower outlet orifice.
