Waste pumps
13 June, 2007Industrial and hazardous wastes with suspended solids often create environmental problems in waste handling facilities in Australia and New Zealand. Stringy solids often wrap around rotating machinery and shafts and also cause clogging problems in pipe work, valves and pumps, and waste handling systems.
Water pump pressure switch
15 May, 2007The Mercoid series CXA water pump pressure switch is a low-cost solution for controlling automatic water systems.
Survival of the fittest pump solution
11 May, 2007A recent project to replace inefficient open channels in the Murrumbidgee irrigation area near Leeton and Griffith in NSW with a pressurised pipe network is expected to save up to 50,000 ML of water per annum when completed
Fibre optics link pumps
27 April, 2007The Downlands Scheme is an irrigation project designed to take water from the Waitaki River and irrigate up to 10,000 ha of dry farmland in the Black Point, Enfield and Napara areas near Oamaru in New Zealand
Corrosion-resistant dewatering pumps
14 March, 2007The 2700 range of stainless steel pumps is suitable for applications in corrosive and abrasive environments; for example, mines, industries and public utilities. The range consists of both drainage and solids handling pumps. They are especially designed for pumping applications with a pH range of 2-10; this means environments where acid or alkaline liquids have to be handled.
Submersible drainage pump
14 March, 2007The Grindex Master Inox series comprises three drainage and three sludge pumps in stainless steel. The pumps originate from Grindex's red Proline pumps, with the cast aluminium replaced by cast stainless steel. The stainless steel pumps are intended for use in corrosive applications with pH values from 2-10. Some examples are mines, process industries, harbours and leach water applications.
Pump has key role in high-pressure pipeline test units
12 March, 2007Six high-pressure testing and water-blasting units have been manufactured to contribute a key role to the Wimmera Mallee Pipeline Project - one of Australia's largest regional infrastructure projects
