Allweiler’s goal is to increase the versatility and performance of the API 676-compliant SNA pump range to meet the individual needs of various industries and applications.

Celeros Flow Technology has launched an innovative sealing system – the CFT-Green Valve Packing System – which reduces fugitive emissions across pipelines and provides a safe and efficient sealing solution for valves. Engineers in the oil and gas, chemical, and power generation industries can now increase safety across their facilities and pipeline networks.

Parker Hannifin has introduced two new ranges of AC inverter drives that meet the latest requirements for the industrial market. Fitting between Parker’s existing AC10 and AC30 series, the AC15 and AC20 provide a rich set of features for a mid-range inverter family without the cost of ‘system drive’ features that are not always required. These include an onboard webserver, SD card slot, ‘Fire Mode’, two independent PID loops and multi-stage sequencing functions.

Ingelfingen-based valve specialist GEMÜ is launching two new solutions for connecting single-use multi-port valve blocks.

Verder Liquids is proud to announce an expansion and upgrade to the Verderflex iDura peristaltic pump range.
