Richter expanded their RMI / RMA product portfolio with two additional pump sizes and nearly doubled the capacity with that.

FNPM magnetic drive pumps from Friatec AG – Division Rheinhütte Pumpen provide a reliable solution for demanding applications. They enable the pumping of extremely aggressive, corrosive, toxic and generally dangerous or environmentally hazardous media. 15 sizes are available for flow rates of up to 350 m3/h, enabling the achievement of maximum flexibility during planning.

Ham-Let introduced its upgraded H-99 Severe Service Needle Valve series and its unique 20% lower torque Oxygen clean Double Ferrule Compression Fittings.

Alfa Laval Unique Mixproof Valves provide maximum flexibility in hygienic flow processing by making it possible to handle two different fluids at the same time, with no risk of cross-contamination. Using two independent plugs and seals means a single mixproof valve can often replace two or more valves of other types.

Capable of pressures up to 12 bar, the KPHX also features low noise levels and reduced vibration running. Locating the bearings and mechanical seals outside the pump enables the pump to operate with higher reliability while reducing the need for maintenance.

Within a thermal power plant, condensate extraction pumps are crucial to its efficient operation by optimising the steam and water loop on the turbine island. The ClydeUnion Pumps CUP-CEP condensate extraction pump is designed for sub and supercritical applications, meeting the demands of modern power plants, regardless of fuel type or pressure requirements.

The extensive MZR range of low flow, miniature, positive displacement micro annular gear pumps provide precise, accurate and smooth, low pulse pumping and dispensing of a wide variety of liquids, including low and high viscosity fluids. Designed and manufactured to the highest standards by HNP Mikrosysteme in Germany and distributed in the UK by Michael Smith Engineers, the ultra-compact size and low mass of these pump and motor units ensure that they can be easily incorporated into the designs of many systems and are well suited to OEM applications.

The hydraulic diaphragm metering pump Orlita Evolution sees the dawn of a new era in ProMinent s process pumps product range. The hydraulic diaphragm metering pump Orlita Evolution form an integrated product range with stroke lengths of 15 to 40 mm. This covers the capacity range from 3 to 7,400 l/h at 400 – 10 bar.

With world energy demand continuing to grow, modern power plants are required to achieve higher loads and efficiencies. Crucial to achieving that goal is the performance of the many pumps throughout a plant. Within modern thermal, combined cycle, gas and solar plants a boiler-feed pump, the pump that feeds water or condensate into the boiler, is a pivotal application and crucial to meeting these challenges.

Power management company Eaton is merging its capabilities in the electrical and hydraulics space to offer machine and system builders variable speed drive (VSD) pump solutions that allow for improved machine performance and energy savings of up to 70 percent – depending on machine duty cycle.
