WORLD PUMPS October 2014

KSB at SMM 2014 in Hamburg

Mouvex at IAA Show 2014

Landia upgrades water pollution control facility

Neptune at WEFTEC 2014

KSB will be providing information on

its pumps and valves as well as

control and monitoring systems

designed for applications on board

diff erent vessel types and for off shore

applications. These range from

liquefi ed gas tankers, cargo vessels

and suction dredgers to passenger

ships and off shore platforms.

Alongside KSB AG’s energy-saving,

high-pressure and standardised

pumps showcased at this year’s

Mouvex, a manufacturer of posi-

tive displacement pumps, will be

featuring its screw compressor

technology for the international

commercial vehicle industry at the

65th Annual International Motor

Show (IAA) Commercial Vehicles.

The IAA Show – which is the

world’s largest trade show for

mobility, transport and logistics –

will be held from 25 September -

2 October in Hannover, Germany.

Exhibiting in Hall 25 Stand C31 and

FG-G37, Mouvex will be featuring

its MH6 screw compressor, the

world’s fi rst combination screw

compressor/power takeoff (PTO)

unit for the dry-bulk transport

market. The culmination of

four years of coopera-

tive eff ort between

Mouvex and Hydrocar,

the MH6 has been

designed to be

compatible with a

truck’s gearbox,

while at the same

time off ering a 70%

Serving over 11,000 residents, the

facility at Staff ord Connecticut,

USA underwent an upgrade in

January 2011, when six 1.8 hp

Landia mixers were installed in the

anoxic tanks as part of a new acti-

vated sludge process. Three 2.4 hp

Axial fl ow pumps, designed and

manufactured by Landia, were also

Neptune a brand of chemical

metering and peristaltic pumps,

portable mixers, chemical feed

systems and other related

equipment, will be exhibiting in

Booth 1529 at the Annual Water

Environment Federation Technical

Exhibition and Conference

(WEFTEC) from Sept. 29 – Oct. 1 in

New Orleans, LA, USA.

At this year’s WEFTEC show,

Neptune will be showcasing its

Series 7000 mechanically actuated

diaphragm metering pumps in

Booth 1529. Neptune’s Series 7000

pumps have been designed with

water and wastewater applications

in mind. The mechanical design of

the Series 7000 eliminates the use

of contour plates on the liquid

side of the diaphragm while the

simple, straight-through valve and

head design allows for improved

fl ow characteristics. The Series

7000 is self-priming, provides

superior performance, and has a

maximum capacity range up to

300 gph (1,135 L/h) at 150 psi.

Hamburg trade show, an impressive

pump manufactured by KSB Itur

Spain S.A. for use with various

on-board applications will be on

display as an example of its compre-

hensive marine range. KSB’s US

American subsidiary, GIW, will present

one of its slurry pumps which are

employed on suction dredgers all

over the world to ensure that water-

ways are kept free for shipping.

Thanks to its space-saving design,

the exhibited UPA-type submers-

ible borehole pump is increasingly

used for off shore wind turbines

and transformer stations. Its robust

design makes for long service

intervals. It can be used in fi re-

fi ghting systems, pressure booster

and cleaning systems as well as

for seawater extraction.

weight reduction when compared

to traditional screw compressors.

The MH6 combines Hydrocar’s

innovative PTO device and the

Mouvex screw compressor prin-

ciple, resulting in a solution for

dry-bulk fl eets that is lighter and

less expensive than traditional

equipment. Thanks to the lighter

overall weight of the system, the

MH6 is able to provide fl eets with

increased turnover per truck per

year that equates to improved

revenues, while also meeting the

requirements of the European

Union’s Euro 6 legislation.

introduced for the aeration basins,

from where they return nitrifi ed

mixed liquor back to the anoxic

tanks for denitrifi cation. To improve

their maintenance program and

equipment service life, plant

personnel at Staff ord contacted

Landia for assistance. WPCF chief

operator Rick Hartenstein,

commented “Landia sent one of

their skilled engineers to show

maintenance staff how to best

look after the pumps and mixers

for our benefi t”.

Treated wastewater from Staff ord

WPCF is discharged into the Willi-

mantic River. The collection

system, which has over 2,000

hook-ups, encompasses approxi-

mately 22 miles of the town and

utilizes four pumping stations. Cis

Neptune will also be featuring its

PZ Series electronic diaphragm

and Series 500 hydraulically actu-

ated metering pumps. PZ Series

pumps have numerous designed

in features, making them ideal for

various product applications at

fl ow rates from .01 to 20 gph. PZ

pumps operate on a manual

control that produces speed

ranging from 15 to 300 strokes per

minute with a variety of liquid-end

materials are available
