The new ready-to-connect pressure booster systems of the KSB Delta Macro type series are designed for large flow rates. The maximum flow rate per system is 960 m³/h and the maximum pump head is 160 metres as standard. The ready-to-connect units operate fully automatically and are equipped with between two and six Movitec high-efficiency centrifugal pumps.

Greene Tweed closely collaborates with customers to design, prototype, and test sealing solutions for life sciences applications in the pharmaceutical manufacturing, analytical instrumentation, and hygienic fluid handling sectors.

The PERIPRO peristaltic pumps expand the NETZSCH pump portfolio with its characteristics as particularly robust and powerful pump that can easily handle viscous and abrasive media even at high pressures. This means that the system provider for positive displacement pumps is now establishing itself as a specialist for pumping complex and difficult media.

Valve manufacturer GEMÜ is expanding its product range for automation components in the processing industry. The new electrical position indicators GEMÜ 1240, 1241 and 1242 and the combi switchboxes GEMÜ 4240, 4241 and 4242 will ensure reliable recording of valve end positions and form the basis for successful process automation – even in potentially explosive areas.

Vogelsang GmbH & Co. KG has further developed its RedUnit grinding system and launches the RedUnit XRL260, its largest industrial grinder up to date. The new RedUnit reduces large quantities of solid materials in a short time and is therefore ideal for processing abattoir waste, food waste and recycling materials.

Armstrong Fluid Technology has introduced a new size range of Design Envelope Permanent Magnet pumps that are engineered to deliver 20 percent lower operating costs than variable speed pumps with standard induction motors.

With the new BOA-Control SBV, Frankenthal-based KSB SE & Co. KGaA is expanding its static balancing valves range by now also offering a series with female threaded ends (ISO 228) – in addition to its type series with flanged ends. The valves are employed in applications like hot-water heating systems and air-conditioning/cooling systems with water/glycol mixtures having a glycol content of up to 50 percent.

CIRCOR International, Inc. announces the RTK REact-TestOne test box for quick and easy testing of the working condition of electric actuators. The REact-TestOne works with REact E Series actuators – REact 30E, 60E and 100E.

Parker Hannifin, the global leader in motion and control technologies, has introduced a 2-way servo proportional valve as part of its TFP series, pioneering a new generation of cartridge valves. With the company’s patented VCD actuator technology, the innovative design of sleeve and spool allows for previously unattainable flow and pressure drop values.

With the Ecosmart diaphragm metering pump, the German LEWA GmbH has provided a safe model that can handle flow rates of up to 300 l/h for many years. For use in applications with higher flow rates, LEWA is now expanding its product range with two new sizes: The Ecosmart will also be available in the more powerful LCC and LCD variants In the future.
