Baseplates Protect Pumps and Motors in Harsh Industrial Applications

Vogelsang recently launched a new line of positive displacement pumps that was designed specifically around the typical requirements of industrial pumping applications, including those of the oil and gas market.

In recent years, the composition of wastewater has changed considerably, and pumping of untreated raw wastewater has become more and more challenging. Pump hydraulics which were used in the past without any problems and with satisfactory results, are becoming clogged more and more often.

Sensor Technology has extended its new range of torque sensors with a model that has the sensing head and electronics in separate housings. This has two advantages: the sensing head can fit into very confined spaces, and the electronics can be located in a position where they are protected from physical damage, dust, dirt, moisture, electromagnetic forces, etc.
