Bredel Pumps are Ideal for Pumping Lime Slurries
Lime slurries present many problems for water treatment plants and the other industries that use them. Lime is resistant to dissolving and quickly settles in low-velocity areas of process lines. Centrifugal and diaphragm pumps also need frequent cleaning and maintenance due to the lime caking their internals. Large particles and the slurry itself can cause excessive wear and tear on the pumps, causing significant downtime and cost in parts and labor.
Peristaltic hose pumps, like the Bredel and APEX model lines from Watson Marlow Fluid Technologies Group, eliminate these problems. The pumps are sealless and the slurry only comes into contact with the hose, which means caking isn’t a problem and the only wear part is the hose. Slurry settling is also eliminated due to the nature of peristaltic pumping.

1050HP high pressure pumps offer increased fluid pressure without sacrificing flow. Low-High pressure mode switch allows pump to function as a standard AODD pump, saving up to 50% air consumption when high pressure isn’t required.
Unique design makes these the only electric diaphragm pumps on the market that will stall under pressure; the pumps can be deadheaded without damage. Up to 5x more efficient then air operated models with reduced pulsation.
GRACO’s durable hydraulic Hydra-Clean pressure washers are available as cart-mount or wall-mount units and can clean the toughest environments like oil rigs, shipyards, mining, agriculture and construction equipment. Hydra-Clean pressure washers also carries a safety benefit because there’s no risk of sparking, unlike gas or electric pressure washers. The fluid section contains stainless steel wetted parts and can handle the most aggressive cleaning materials up to 200°F (93°C).
The Husky 515 and 716 diaphragm pumps are ideal for evacuating 55 gallon (208 liter) drums since they are free of rotating parts. These transfer pump packages can handle abrasive and shear sensitive fluids up to 5,000 CPS with flow rates up to 16 GPM(61 LPM).
