Seven pump selection errors that stay invisible at quote time – from NPSH margins to viscosity correction. The free VSX whitepaper “Best Practices for Avoiding Hydraulic Pump Selection Errors” shows engineering and sales teams how to spot them early, what they cost and which standards apply. Includes an 8-point pre-selection checklist.
Double diaphragm pumps operate using an oscillating positive displacement principle. The pump consists of two main fluid housings and a central air control section. Inside each housing, a flexible diaphragm is mounted vertically and connected to a shared shaft. As compressed air enters and exits the air chambers, the diaphragms move in a coordinated push pull motion.

According to the Guinness Book of Records, this makes it the largest in the world in terms of size and treatment capacity.
Around 359 billion cubic meters of wastewater is produced globally each year. As well as municipal wastewater, a broad range of industrial processes produce wastewater, such as chemical manufacturing, food processing and powerplants.
As automation continues to transform industries worldwide, Invertek Drives is at SPS Nuremberg (Hall 3, Stand 3-360) showcasing the critical role of VFDs in maximising efficiency and performance. VFDs are essential components in modern automation systems, enabling precise motor control and optimisation for a wide range of applications across diverse sectors, including manufacturing, HVAC, water treatment, and materials handling.
The scene in the Flender hardening shop is spectacular: flames several meters high leap out of a cooling basin and light up the dark walls of the hall. Just seconds earlier, an employee used a crane to lift several red-hot gears from a hardening furnace into the basin. The gearbox components, heated to 840 degrees Celsius, are plunged into an oil bath.
