Market-Led The greatest proportion of scientific applications (as opposed to Semicon applications) for mass flow devices can be found within the Analytical, Surface Treatment and Bio-Pharma sectors. Importantly – these are sub-divided into (a) lab based end user applications and (b) equipment and machine builders.  Most commonly these are all at pressures of less than 10 Bar and with relatively low flow rates and with these sectors being generally characterized by high volume, low-cost the challenge is significant. With BASIS, however, this has been achieved whilst also ensuring that low ..read more

Additionally, its gentle pumping action enables the handling of large particles without degradation. The pump accommodates a viscosity of up to 1,000,000 mPas through axial pumping, providing flexibility for various applications. Maintenance is simplified through cutting-edge technology, including an enhanced pump cartridge design for swift seal replacement and simple screw replacement without the need for screw shaft resynchronization.  The self-centering flange housing and one-side dismantling further streamline maintenance tasks, even in confined spaces. With optional features like a ..read more

Thermal Mass Flow Measurement As the manufacturer of Sage Metering thermal mass flow meters, we are often asked the following: Why do I need to measure mass flow? What is the difference between actual cubic feet per minute (ACFM) and standard cubic feet per minute (SCFM)? What is the theory of thermal mass flow quantification? Why are pressure and temperature corrections not required when using a thermal mass meter? What are the typical applications for using a thermal mass flow meter? Actual Flow versus Standard Flow Gas is compressible – this is one of the reasons the accurate measurement ..read more

In addition to standardized platform technologies, customer-specific GMP-compliant systems are also needed. Diaphragm metering pumps in these systems can meet the challenges of extreme chemical syntheses in the upstream process and also be used in contamination-free downstream processes. The flexible production of toxic and flammable fluid mixtures with widely varying flow rate requirements is particularly important here. From rare diseases to chronic indications, the demand for oligonucleotide-based drugs is steadily increasing. Oligonucleotides are short, small (= oligo) sections of genetic ..read more

At the leading trade fair for water, wastewater, waste and raw materials management, SEEPEX will be presenting, among other products, the world’s first progressive cavity pump with an automatically adjustable stator clamp. The SCT AutoAdjust is indispensable for critical applications that require maximum performance and reliability with absolute operational safety. The “Smart Air Injection” will also be on show in Munich. The particularly energy-efficient system solution consisting of a progressive cavity pump and pneumatic dense phase conveying demonstrates its advantages especially in times ..read more

Challenges such as water scarcity and increasingly ambitious sustainability regulations are leading both the municipal and industrial sectors to rethink their approach to water. To reach its goals, the water sector requires cutting-edge technical solutions. IFAT Munich 2024, the largest trade fair for water, wastewater, recycling and municipal technology, hence focuses on project consulting and products that make water applications more efficient, cost-effective and future-proof. Innovation and flexibility for industrial applications  The recently introduced IR-63 M infrared fusion machin ..read more

The new pumping solution has also been designed to support more sustainable manufacturing processes in pharmaceutical engineering. The multi-membrane, diaphragm pump comes equipped with a disposable pump head made from polypropylene plastic and contains 40% less material when compared to conventional single use pumps. “Single use technology is critical to speeding up product development time, and with the PureFlo 21 Single Use, companies can bring new products to market quickly while reducing environmental impacts,” said Adam Hart, Global Product Manager at Xylem. “This solution is also the fi ..read more
