Case story: Water and wastewater treatment plants

Areas of application

Transfer and dosing of lime milk and ACP, sludge, iron chloride, lixiviat. Sampling of treated water and chlorine water. Injection of bisulfite. Pumping of grease, wastewater with grease, oil and phosphoric acid and water with sand.

Models from all four realax peristaltic pump series – the APY, ISI, IP and RP – are successfully used in these applications. Employing both shoe and roller technologies realax pump range gives capacity rates from 0.16ml/rev through to 20l/rev and pressures from 2 to 15 bar. All four series come with a comprehensive range of hoses. For more information, see how they work or look into all different pump models.

• Low cost and low maintenance. Only one wearing part to be replaced – the hose.
• Lower speed than progressive cavity and lobes pumps means soft action and less wear. All realax peristaltic hose pumps are self-priming.
• Discharge pressure up to 15 bar
• Reversible rotation
• Can run dry
• Many options:  hose leak detector, HALAR internal and external coating on casing and cover,
• ATEX versions available.
