Efficiency pumped up

The pumps have been fitted to balloon-making equipment made by Greenbrook Automations of Chesterfield, and have helped to transform the company’s reputation with its customers; previously another brand of pump had been used, but customers complained about the number of failures.

Pumps for the balloon-making equipment have to handle highly abrasive, fine powder slurry, made of ground-up sedimentary rock known as Diatomaceous earth.

Robin Gronbach, MD, says: "We have been 100% happy with the Mono pumps, and the difference they made was immediately noticeable. We’ve had no failures at all. We supplied the Mono-equipped balloon making equipment to a customer in Peru and they’ve reported that it has helped speed their production process.”

The Epsilon pumps are designed to deliver excellent performance, low whole-life costs and reduced spares requirements. Gentle pumping action and low running speeds are suitable for highly abrasive applications, and the pumps can be installed vertically or horizontally. They feature a compact bloc construction, Mono's Flexishaft drive shaft connection, which eliminates wearing components, and a 10-year warranty.
