Heavy duty hose pumps

Project engineer Alex Spyropoulos, says: “Sludge transfer on DAF (dissolved air flotation) units is a good example of an application where we have extensive numbers of Bredel pumps in action. Here, we use Bredel 25, 40 and 50 heavy duty hose pumps to help manage sludge production.

“Bredel pumps produce much higher pressure on the discharge side, which also makes them favourable over electric diaphragm pumps in applications where there is a steep gradient or deep tank. The fact that they are self-priming offers additional process benefits over some alternative pump technologies.”
