Pivot head valve keys
Often a valve may lean to one side due to ground shifting or improper setting of the valve, making it difficult to get a fixed socket valve tool on the operating nut. Sometimes it is even impossible. The swiveling socket on the VKP valve key from Reed Manufacturing will work on any valve regardless of how crooked it has become over time. All Reed valve keys feature strong welds at critical points and are made in the USA.

Emulsion-breaking waste treatment products
A Brite’s WBC products are customized solutions designed to break emulsions and encapsulate the oils from spent coolants and other highly emulsified oils, then capture them as a non-hazardous sludge. Bentonite clay-based wastewater treatment products remove emulsified oils, metals and suspended solids, and work in a wide pH range. All reactions necessary for chemical treatment are packaged in the WBC blend, which means only one tank is necessary to perform all treatment — reducing floor space; reducing the required number of pumps, valves and power; reducing the chance of mechanical failure; and simplifying operations.

Stainless-steel centrifugal pump line
Scot Pump, A Wilo Company, has expanded its line of stamped 304 stainless-steel pumps with NPT connections to include nine new ANSI flanged centerline discharge models. The new 320-328 series covers up to 385 gpm and 275 ft of head. The pumps feature Scot’s proven slip-fit O-ring/flinger design, which prevents leaks caused by deformation as a result of over-tightening. They are mounted on a JM frame and incorporate a back pull-out design and weep holes in the impeller. The weep holes extend seal life by creating fluid movement in the seal cavity, which aids in venting of air at start-up.
