Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Solutions (WMFTS) will unveil its new Bredel Heavy Duty pump specifically for the mining and construction sectors at bauma 2025 (April 7-13). Bredel hose pumps, part of WMFTS, has engineered the new Heavy Duty pump with increased safety features and improved durability.
The Heavy Duty pump is designed for handling difficult solids in the mining and construction industries, such as transferring abrasive high-solid content slurries, thick sludge, and corrosive fluids with flow rates of 108,000 L/h and pressures up to 16 bar.
The Heavy Duty pump’s safety features include:
- A window guard that offers extra protection.
- A flange bracket that reduces the risk of lubricant leakage and lowers maintenance.
- A C4H paint coating that brings higher resistance to harsh environments.
Bredel hose pumps and Qdos chemical metering pumps, from WMFTS, are low maintenance with benefits such as minimal impact on the local environment, reduced water consumption, and lower energy use. These long-lasting peristaltic pumps excel at applications such as transferring thickener underflow and accurately dosing reagents, leading to a more efficient mining process.
