Operators of offshore platforms are very focused on the reliability of their equipment. Working in such a remote location means that major repairs, if not carefully planned, can result in extended downtime and loss of production. For one platform in Malaysia, a change in output was shortly followed by an increased rate of seal failures on the condensate pumps – an issue that was effectively resolved with a Sulzer retrofit, through their OEM-X line service.

A variable frequency drive (VFD) that is fully sealed and weather tight with a UL Type 4X/IP66 rating. The drive employs water industry-specific software features and settings and it is designed for operation in environments where extreme rain, heat, snow, cold, or dust is experienced.

When Britain’s biggest provider of higher welfare pork wanted to reduce processing plant sludge transport costs, WCS Environmental Engineering was not only able to reduce carbon emissions, but also drive green energy generation, explains Joanne Allen Head of Business Development.

Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Solutions (WMFTS) announces that Bredel hose pumps has expanded its range of hoses by releasing the new and versatile Bredel NR Transfer hose for general fluid transfer applications at pressures up to 12 bar (174 psi).

The Industrial Systems Division Europe of Parker Hannifin has announced the launch of its new AC20F drive controller. The modular drive was specially developed for motor control in hydraulic applications. It is therefore also ideally suited to use in variable-speed hydraulic pump systems, such as the company’s Drive Controlled Pump (DCP).

Sulzer is contributing to decarbonizing the energy industry with the supply of a custom VNY molten salt pump to the Molten Salts Storage (MOSS) project in Denmark.

Parker Hannifin is unveiling the latest addition to its high-performance family of mobile motors: the low-voltage NX8xHM series. Providing a cost-effective solution for both on and off-road vehicles, the new permanent magnet AC (PMAC) motor is an ideal choice for electro-hydraulic pumps used by 48Vdc construction vehicles, such as mini excavators.

Kirloskar Brothers Limited (KBL) has recently been granted a patent for its PICO pump turbine, a groundbreaking hydropower generation system. This accomplishment underscores KBL’s unwavering commitment to energy solutions and technological progress.

Wastewater treatment technology from WCS Environmental Engineering is delivering enhanced ammonia removal at a village treatment works which manages seasonal flows and loads.

Parker Hannifin has introduced two new ranges of AC inverter drives that meet the latest requirements for the industrial market. Fitting between Parker’s existing AC10 and AC30 series, the AC15 and AC20 provide a rich set of features for a mid-range inverter family without the cost of ‘system drive’ features that are not always required. These include an onboard webserver, SD card slot, ‘Fire Mode’, two independent PID loops and multi-stage sequencing functions.
