Whitepaper: Select the Right Pump before Errors Get Costly

Whitepaper: Select the Right Pump before Errors Get Costly

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.

How a Diaphragm Pump Works

How a Diaphragm Pump Works

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.

DESMI: The Engineering Behind Reliable Marine Boiler Systems

22.07.2026 -

In marine boiler systems, performance is never defined by a single component. It is the result of how well every element works together under pressure – literally. DESMI has spent decades refining one critical part of that equation: how water flows through high-temperature, high-pressure boiler systems. Not just supplying pumps, but continuously improving how they perform in real operating conditions. Because in this application, efficiency is not enough. Reliability is everything.

Technical Article: How Centralized Vacuum Can Cut Energy Use by up to 70%

26.06.2026 -

When it comes to industrial vacuum systems, efficiency is not just determined by the vacuum pump you choose. It is also shaped by how your vacuum supply is configured. This configuration defines how vacuum is generated, distributed, and matched to the actual requirements of the application. One of the most impactful changes a facility can make is to move from a decentral to a central vacuum supply.

Protecting Pipeline Coatings Where They Fail First

19.06.2026 -

When pipeline failures are discussed, the conversation often centers on what happens years after installation: corrosion rates, coating chemistry, cathodic protection performance, or environmental exposure. Those are legitimate concerns. But many long term integrity problems begin much earlier, sometimes even during construction itself.
