Handling lubricating grease can be a physically demanding task for maintenance engineers. This is especially true when thick grease has to be delivered using ergonomically unfavourable hand pumps. The Lutz Lube Drive filling tool, which can be powered by a cordless screwdriver, provides relief.

Vertical turbine pumps (VTPs) are an essential element of modern fluid systems, offering strong, reliable, and efficient pumping across many applications. They’re used everywhere, from the irrigation of farms and golf courses to supporting gold mines, municipal water supplies, cooling towers, mine dewatering, desalination plants, as well as a wide array of applications within the petroleum industry.

Packo, part of the Verder Group, announces the launch of the MFP3/125-315, the latest addition to the successful MFP3 pump series. This innovative pump has been developed with maximum efficiency and minimal total cost of ownership (TCO) in mind for the user.

Pfeiffer Vacuum+Fab Solutions, a member of the global Busch Group, has expanded its turbomolecular vacuum pump portfolio with the ATH 4506 M, the largest model in the ATH-M series.

Armstrong Fluid Technology recently announced the launch of its Systems Envelope – Fluid Management Station (SE-FMS), a modular solution designed to revolutionize fluid management in HVAC systems. The SE-FMS is engineered to eliminate inefficiencies, reduce costs, and deliver optimized performance throughout the system lifecycle.

With its Omega, KSB SE & Co. KGaA is launching a new generation of its Omega water pump on the market. The axially split volute casing pumps are designed for handling water as well as fluids with a low solids content. They are used in waterworks, district heating and cooling systems, desalination plants and industrial applications, for example.

Easyfix installation sets allow drainage pumps to be installed quickly and easily in the sump. All necessary components are pre-assembled up to the connection to the pressure pipe. Pentair Jung Pumpen is expanding the Easyfix range with a larger version: Easyfix 50 Single and Duo for more powerful pumps and higher flow rates – with all the advantages of the proven Easyfix 32 sets.

For decades, SEEPEX has optimized the performance of its globally sought-after progressive cavity pumps by using razor-sharp macerators to reliably shred solids and fibrous materials into the smallest particles. This prevents pipeline blockages and ensures reliable protection of downstream system components.

Selecting the right pump solution for corrosive, hazardous, and otherwise challenging fluids is a critical decision for businesses in industries ranging from chemical manufacturing to water treatment. This guide explores three key factors to consider when choosing a quality pump solution: (1) reliability of supply chain, (2) versatility and applicability, and (3) environmental and safety benefits.

AUMA presents the SIL version of TIGRON, the new high-performance, explosion-proof electric actuator series for the highest safety requirements. TIGRON SIL actuators combine maximum safety for safety-related applications up to SIL 3 with outstanding configuration flexibility, adapting to a wide variety of requirements.
