How Equalizer Integrated Surge Dampeners Improve AODD Pump Operation

When looking to run an efficient and trouble-free operation, air-operated double-diaphragm (AODD) pump users must keep in mind the following three parameters: liquid Pulsation, water or pipe hammer, piping noise. The solution to these challenging pump conditions is the Wilden® Equalizer® Series Integral Surge Dampener (ISD). Available in plastic and metal models, the Equalizer ISD has been designed to integrate directly into the top of the pump’s manifold, removing the pressure variations and fluctuations that can result as the pumped liquid moves through the inlet toward the discharge.

EagleBurgmann Equips First Pipeline With New Smart Seal Solution For Digital Condition Monitoring

The current geopolitical developments are leading to a massive strain on the global energy supply. Despite political efforts to transition to renewable energy, 80% of global energy consumption is still generated from fossil fuels, such as coal, oil and natural gas.

Hence, a functioning and reliable infrastructure for the transportation of primary energy sources is still of major importance. The main premises are maximizing the availability of oil and gas pipelines and minimizing their downtimes. For decades, EagleBurgmann has been a partner of the oil and gas industry and contributes to the reliability of the transportation process by providing innovative sealing solutions.

424 Pumps For Riventa To Test As Welsh Water Makes Commitment To Net Zero

As part of its commitment to achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2040, Dŵr Cymru Welsh Water is collaborating with Riventa to test the efficiency of 424 wastewater pumps at 132 treatment works.
Riventa’s expertise in next-generation pump system optimization will support Welsh Water in evaluating asset performance and reducing energy consumption, resulting in significant savings.

Over the next two years, Riventa will gather accurate and high-quality data to determine the health and efficiency of all 424 pumps. This data will identify inefficiencies and enable Welsh Water to address poor assets, driving investment and refurbishments to improve performance.

Canned Motor Pumps for Deep-Freezing Baked Goods

Flake ice or ice water are often used to lower the temperature of baked goods, for example in the kneading process in bakeries.
This counteracts the heating introduced into the dough by the kneading process. In the summer months, ice water is often no longer sufficient for cooling and flake ice makers are used. Thanks to the simplicity of cooling brine as a refrigerant, low-cost mechanical seal pumps are often used, but these are increasingly being replaced by canned motor pumps …

Product News MCP3IMO Cantilever Pumps on Bearing Frame

Since the development of our cantilever pumps in the late nineties, we have hundreds of IMO pumps working in the most diverse and difficult applications: circulating frying oil in fryers in the food industry over paint in the bodywork department, varnishes, galvanic coatings and a lot of other thin viscous liquids that are difficult or impossible to seal even with high-tech mechanical seals. Since the pumps are absolutely maintenance free, users often forget about them.
