New Moyno Ultra-Drive® Model CV1

Following a successful two-year trial of interval timers on packaged wastewater treatment plant blowers has resulted in an average 50% energy reduction at a site in Cornwall.

Parker Hannifin is launching the new generation of DFplus proportional valves. The valve electronics have been fundamentally revised, opening up new possibilities for communication with the valve as well as connectivity for demanding industrial applications.

Automatic pumping of chemicals and high-viscosity oils from canisters, drums and containers in an industrial context without the need to search for sockets and without the trip hazards and short circuits that result from trailing cables. The new B3 Battery from Lutz Pumpen enables safe mobile working with aggressive liquids without the need to compromise on pumping performance compared to cable-connection versions.

As plastic water networks replace ageing Victorian mains, leakage detection methods are also evolving, writes Barbara Hathaway, Ovarro’s technology leader for leakage solutions. Major upgrades of ageing water mains are being planned across England and Wales between 2025 and 2030, as part of utilities’ commitments to cut leakage by more than a quarter.

The ECO.pump by Beinlich Pumpen, an external gear pump designed for the precise dosing of media up to a viscosity of 200,000 mPa·s, receives important innovations. Valued for its versatility and simple in-line design, it now offers extended application possibilities through dead space optimized connections and an optional heating jacket function.

Although chlorine is an integral part of industrial disinfection processes, handling the chemical is dangerous. In the worst-case scenario, incorrect dosing or direct contact with chlorine can cause damage to the lungs, eyes and skin. The solution from Lutz-Jesco: MINICHLORGEN, an electrolysis system that manufactures sodium hypochlorite from harmless salt tablets and makes it available for disinfection processes.
