Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Solutions (WMFTS), a leader in peristaltic pumps and associated fluid path technologies, will showcase its product range for chemical metering and dosing applications at the Water Equipment Show (WES) at the Telford International Centre in Telford, UK, on 15th May.
Attendees at the event will be able to learn how WMFTS peristaltic pumps can contribute to a more sustainable and efficient water and wastewater treatment process.
Located at Stand F109-110, WMFTS will demonstrate its Qdos™ H-FLO chemical metering and dosing pump, the latest addition to the Qdos® range which is designed specifically for higher flow rates up to 600 L/hr with pressure capability up to 7 bar (102 psi). The company said the Qdos H-FLO delivers the same outstanding accuracy and reliability as other Qdos pumps and is compatible with a variety of pumpheads and a range of different tube materials to ensure chemical compatibility with the process fluid.
The Qdos range consists of six pumps—20, 30, 60, 120, CWT and HFLO—to fulfil chemical metering and dosing requirements.
Chemical dosing systems with Qdos peristaltic pumps are used at major water and wastewater treatment plants around the UK. WMFTS said the simplicity and easy installation of the Qdos, along with their proven operational benefits, make Qdos a preferred chemical dosing solution for both contractors and water authorities. According to the company, Qdos metering and dosing pumps offer a reliable, high-performance alternative to diaphragm pumps: their patented ReNu pumphead can be quickly dismantled and replaced without tools and requires no maintenance or specialist training for operators.
Other products on the stand will include the Bredel APEX hose pump, which WMFTS said is ideal for chemically aggressive or abrasive applications up to 8 bar. The high flow of the APEX pump means less wear on the precision machined hose element resulting in longer service intervals. Maintenance consists of a simple hose change which can be performed in place, taking minutes.
Dale Kavanagh, Sales Team Leader, Industrial and Environmental Sectors at WMFTS UK, said:
“Our diverse range of peristaltic pumps, including the Qdos H-FLO and Qdos CWT pumps, have been developed for a range of challenging applications from versatile and accurate chemical dosing, to handling abrasive sludge and slurries.
“The Qdos range is now compliant with a recent revision of Water Industry Mechanical and Electrical Specification (WIMES) guidance.
“We look forward to engaging with attendees to discuss how WMFTS can optimise their processes and meet their fluid management needs to deliver cost savings, lower maintenance and sustainability benefits.”
