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.

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 flexible, single-use solutions range has been developed by building on years of experience including the predecessor brands of puresu and asepticsu, and is designed to streamline a biopharmaceutical company’s process, safeguard its product and reduce its regulatory burden.

Surge events in liquid pipelines can cause severe infrastructure damage, loss of product and environmental harm, as well as a significant threat to personnel safety.

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.

A new type of laser-based immersion probe, which the Fraunhofer Institute for Laser Technology ILT in Aachen is testing as part of BMBF- and EU-funded projects with industrial partners and users, could pave the way for continuous inline monitoring of water treatment processes in wastewater treatment plants.

With its new patented seal system for filling needle and filling pipe systems, valve producer GEMÜ has brought to market the first ever adaptation option for filling needles that ensures hermetic separation between the actuator and medium. This means that any lift effect and contamination of the medium can be avoided.
