Six Tips for Setting Pump Bases to Achieve Proper Leveling
When you need the best performance and longevity from a pump, installation on a level surface is critical. Each pump component must be aligned carefully to achieve the desired results over the life of the pump. Pumps set at improper levels are a common problem we see when out in the field repairing pumps installed […]
Why a Gear Pump is Best for Viscous Materials
Oil and other high-viscosity liquids can present a unique challenge for many pumps. Operators who regularly deal with viscous materials prefer gear pump systems because they handle difficult fluids more efficiently and effectively. Gear pumps are often found in applications like oil and gas, industrial, mining and aggregate, water and wastewater treatment, municipal, and food […]
The Benefits of an Air-Operated Double-Diaphragm Pump (AODD)
The Air-Operated Double-Diaphragm Pump (AODD) is a type of positive displacement pump that many operators prefer over standard centrifugal pumps for certain thick and viscous fluid applications. AODDs are commonly used in industries like food processing, electronics, pharmaceuticals, paints and oil, acid transfer metering, and gas. Four key benefits of Air-Operated Double-Diaphragm pumps: Simple […]

Some of these features are nice, but are […]
Verderflex Peristaltic Pumps Offer Robust Solutions
Verderflex is a leading manufacturer of peristaltic pumps, which are a specialized type of pump used in a wide variety of industries. Peristaltic pumps work using alternating compression and relaxation of a hose or tube. The hose draws contents in, then a rotating shoe rolls along the length of the hose. This provides compression […]
How a Slurry Pump Handles the Rough Stuff
Any operator who has ever pumped slurry will tell you how difficult a job it can be. It is one of the most challenging fluids to process because it involves a lot of extra variables. Slurries can contain a high amount of solids and will typically have a much thicker consistency than normal fluids. They […]
How Variable Speed Compressors Are Changing the Industry
Almost every manufacturing facility will have compressed air or refrigeration systems as a major part of the plant. These systems can use up to 30% of the facility’s energy consumption. Traditional screw compressors can be major consumers of energy. Their starting and stopping cycles typically aren’t very efficient, the mechanical components can wear out and […]
