Propeller pumps
The Flygt Slimline Propeller Pumps use smaller discharge column sizes resulting in a more compact pump station footprint which in turn minimizes civil construction costs. The state-of-the-art axial flow pumps deliver reliability and efficiency with increased clog resistance thanks to Flygt's unique N-technology. A self-cleaning propeller minimizes operational disturbances while delivering sustained high efficiency and reduced energy costs compared to conventional propeller pumps.

AkzoNobel's International Paint has introduced Devoe® Bar-Rust® 234P to the North American water industry. The solvent-free, epoxy, low-temperature, potable water tank lining system is designed to meet the industry's need for low VOC compliance, without compromising performance. The 100% solids, high build system is suited for new construction and rehabilitation projects because of its fast cure, simple 2:1 mixing ratio, and single coat application capability -- even in temperatures as low as 35°F.

Progressing cavity pumpsThe Moyno® 2000 Model G3 Progressing Cavity Pump is suited for handling semi-dry, high solids content or caked substances. It features a series of finger mechanisms mounted on two counter-rotating shafts. Positioned above the pump's auger feed, this bridge breaker device prevents the accumulation of material in the throat of the pump. The bridge breaker is independently driven for flexibility in controlling pump and bridge breaker speed to meet specific application requirements.

Turbocompressor
Sulzer Pumps offers the ABS turbocompressor HST 20, a direct-driven, air-cooled high speed turbocompressor. The new system offers exceptional savings from wire to air, providing more air output for every kilowatt put in. This efficiency comes from optimizing the turbocompressor as a whole. Magnetic bearings, a high-speed permanent-magnet motor, a newly designed impeller and a new labyrinth seal design all contribute to the balance. Sulzer Pumps Ltd.
PE ScraperElectrofusion requires a clean surface. Reed's PE Scraper removes dirt and oxidation from the outside diameter of a PE pipe in preparation for the electrofusion process. Its spring-loaded blade does not skip as it keeps consistent pressure on the pipe to yield a smooth, finished surface. A minimal amount of PE is scraped away to reveal the clean pipe. The scraper can be used on the edge of the pipe and anywhere along the length.
