The launch of a
new metering system
Launched last month at Weftec (Chicago;
October 2-4), the new Bravo
chemical metering system provides
improved process control with reliable,
accurate and repeatable flow,
and reduced chemical consumption,
says the company. Bravo is an integrated,
modular and scalable solution
used in a variety of industries for
disinfection, pH control, flocculation,
corrosion inhibitors, oxygen scavengers
and containment elimination.
Bravo incorporates NSF/ANSI 61 certified
progressive-cavity (PC) metering
pumps. The unique design of a PC
pump offers several advantages compared
to traditional chemical-metering
pumps due to pumping characteristics
that allow for consistent, precise,
repeatable metering with low shear,
minimal pulsations and no vapor lock.
These pumps also wear predictably,
so there is no risk for catastrophic failure.

This compact mining crusher
handles 3,000 ton/h
The new ERC25-25 eccentric roll
crusher (photo) can process hard rock
and ores efficiently and economically in
underground mining operations. It features
a compact design and an integrated
screen that is 20 to 50% lower
than conventional primary crushers, a
feature that greatly simplifies transportation,
installation and maintenance
below ground, says the company.
The patented design features a roll
mounted eccentrically between the
crushing and the screening chambers,
which offers greater efficiency and productivity
compared with other crusher
types. The large, constant stroke of
the ERC25-25 crusher combines
with the integrated screen to provide
very high crushing intensity and
throughputs of up to 3,000 ton/h. -

Custom pressure vessels with
agitation and dispersion options
This company has fabricated a 300gal
vessel (photo) designed for 5 psi
internal pressure at 300°F. All of the
wetted surfaces are stainless-steel
type 304L polished to 240-grit finish.
The vessel is agitated by a special
disperser blade driven to 1,150 rpm
by a 75-h.p. explosion-proof motor.
The agitator shaft utilizes a mechanical
seal running in an oil bath. A 50psig
ASME Code-stamped baffled
jacket surrounds the sides and vessel
bottom for heating and cooling.
All elastomers, nozzles, sensors, dip
tubes, valves and operator controls
are supplied based on the end user's
specific requirements. Numerous
other custom-engineered options are
available on fabricated pressure vessels,
including jacketing, agitation,
pressurization, sanitary requirements
and more. - Charles Ross and Son

Explosion-proof blenders for
large-batch processes
The E8815 stainless-steel, largebatch
explosion-proof blender
(photo) is manufactured to Class
I, Div. I, Groups C & D explosionproof
electrical rating. ATEX ratings
and non-explosion-proof models are
also available. These blenders are
designed
for pharmaceutical
and
chemical-blending applications. Additional
options include the following:
jacketed containers available for use
with refrigerated or heated circulators;
temperature sensors; thermal
camera; and several standard blending
assemblies. E8815 blender models
range from 10 to 25 gal in volume,
with stainless-steel
exteriors
and
standard powder-coat finish available.
Servo-controlled blending-container
auto lift and pour functionality
makes large-batch processing easier
to control and integrate. - Eberbach

A smart system gets the
compressor lubrication right
The XperLUBE system (photo) uses
automotive-style solenoid injectors
to deliver lubricant in precise quantities.
Unlike traditional lubrication devices,
XperLUBE integrates fully with
modern control systems and adapts
to changes in operating conditions.
