Certain process applications present difficult problems for pumps, particularly those involving aggressive chemicals. Mechanically sealed pumps can be prone to seal failure in some of these situations, leading to potential environmental contamination through loss of pumped media, resulting in expensive downtime. Ultrachem magnetically-driven pumps, available through liquid handling specialists, Michael Smith Engineers, are designed to meet the tough demands of these applications on the basis that ‘extreme situations call for extreme measures’.

CAT PUMPS is very pleased to announce the new 75 Frame and 150 Frame, “R” Series, large capacity, reciprocating pumps. Six new models are now available with flows up to 320 GPM and pressures up to 10,000 PSI. These pumps are ISO 9000 certified and meet API 674 standards for the oil and gas industry.

CAT PUMPS announces another new direct-drive Plunger Pump for the portable cleaning industry. The high quality materials and unique design of the 6DX Series Pumps offer superior reliability and long life at a new low price.

CAT PUMPS has responded to the ever-increasing demand for pump longevity, by expanding its 316 SS product line with both cast and block-style models. Designed for intense, continuous-duty applications such as salt-water reverse osmosis system, industrial wastewater treatment, salt-water high-pressure ship hull blasting, a special clean-room sanitizing, CO2 parts cleaning or an energy-conservation misting, CAT PUMPS has a Stainless Steel pump to meet the need.
