IN FOCUS

From varnish and sealants up to lubricants: Whenever users in industry want to pump large quantities of highly viscous media, they run the risk of altering the quality and integrity of the pumped liquids. Lutz Pumpen has developed the solution to this problem. Its new TR series wobble plate pumps enable the sensitive pumping of up to 30,000 litres of highly viscous liquids per hour. This new development will be on display at Achema 2024.

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.

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.

The new HiPace 10 Neo turbopump from Pfeiffer Vacuum is a compact vacuum pump which is ideal for portable and mobile analysis applications. With its Pfeiffer Vacuum Laser Balancing technology, the HiPace 10 Neo offers minimal noise and low vibration levels.

The latest addition to the ViSCO.series, the ViSCO.pharma, strengthens Beinlich Pumpen’s portfolio of progressiv cavity pumps. The specially developed pump precisely fulfils the filling and dosing requirements of the food, pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries.

Smith & Loveless Inc. highlights the EVERLAST Series 5000 Pump Station, an above-ground wastewater pump station that continues the S&L philosophy of high efficiency, long service life, operator ease and safety, and low operation and maintenance costs.

Gentle and low-pulsation dosing of aggressive chemicals without pressure peaks and with minimized dead time. This is made possible by MEMDOS SMART, a new type of stepper motor dosing pump that Lutz-Jesco will be presenting at Achema 2024, the world’s leading trade fair for the process industry. The Industry 4.0-compatible dosing pump can be operated as easily and reliably as a smartphone via its full-colour touch display.

At IFAT, Vogelsang GmbH & Co. KG will be showing the conical HiCone progressive cavity pump for use in wastewater treatment plants and pump stations. Additionally, a 3D model of a small, compact version of the HiCone will be on display.

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.
