Caprari K-Kompact Series has the hydraulic fit for wastewater pumping, activated by high efficiency surface electric motors. These pumps are the most able in dry chamber applications to handle fluids with high percentage of sand and other solids.

Armstrong Fluid Technology has launched a new website designed to help industry professionals make the best decisions in selecting fluid flow solutions.

Rethinking entrenched design assumptions to create the space for improvements is a guiding principle that has already enabled Netzsch Pumpen & Systeme GmbH to implement significant improvements in rotary lobe and progressing cavity pumps.

Ruhrpumpen recently sold a Water Injection package that consists of quantity (2) SCE 10X8X16 (Booster pumps) and quantity (2) SM 6X13X10 (Main pumps). The 2.3 MW driver for the SM pump operated by a variable frequency drive.

Xylem has won a significant contract to supply its Flygt brand submersible pumps and monitoring and control technology, as part of a project to upgrade Europe’s largest, and the world’s second largest, wastewater treatment plant located near Paris, France.

The Moyno 2000 HS system is a significant technology advancement for the wastewater treatment industry. It can pump filter cake further distances with higher volumetric efficiencies than other progressing cavity pumps.

One of the largest UK manufacturers of fresh dairy products for the food industry was using air diaphragm pumps to dose peracetic acid into the final rinse water of both raw and finished CIP (Clean-in-place) routines.

The Fluid Sealing Association is pleased to announce the appointment of Henri V. Azibert as their new Technical Director.

On June 13, Sulzer agreed to acquire both Grayson Armature businesses—Grayson Armature Large Motor Division, Inc. (Houston) and Grayson Armature Orange Texas, Inc.—for an enterprise value of USD 42 million (CHF 38 million). Through this acquisition, Sulzer will become one of the largest independent providers of electromechanical services in the Houston bay area.

Coil-operated linear pumps (LI range) are perfect for applications that require a high volumetric displacement combined with a very long service life. But this type of pump cannot reach the high pressure and vacuum levels and the compact sizes of motor-operated eccentric diaphragm pumps (EC range) due to physical constraints.
