A case for peristaltic pumps

Pumping concrete can be a challenging task depending on its composition, viscosity, density, and level of abrasiveness. What peristaltic pumps offer is a virtually maintenance-free pump due to the open flow path, with only the fluid in touch with the hose. There are no seals to replace, check valves to clog, and no rotors and stators to wear out.

Concentration measurement made easy

In numerous industrial manufacturing processes, the inline measurement of concentrations is required to monitor the product quality and to produce efficiently in terms of resources. Sonic velocity is recommended as a measuring method, because it provides highly precise and actual measuring values within seconds. Furthermore, the measuring systems can be installed without a bypass and are used in almost all chemical substances.
