New Bredel Heavy Duty pump offers advanced safety and reliability in the toughest conditions
Bredel hose pumps, part of Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Solutions, has engineered a new Bredel Heavy Duty pump with advanced safety and reliability features specifically for the mining and construction sectors.
For mining companies that prioritise protecting their employees and the local environment while ensuring reliable operations in the toughest conditions, Bredel has designed the Heavy Duty pump for enhanced safety and durability.
The Heavy Duty pump is a peristaltic pump solution for handling abrasive high-solid content slurries, thick sludge and corrosive fluids due to its dedicated features. These include a heavy-duty frame that enables safer pump transportation using a forklift truck, heavy-duty bearings that provide an extended lifetime when pumping high-solid content slurries and a window guard that offers extra protection. The pump also benefits from a robust flange bracket that reduces the risk of lubricant leakage and simplifies maintenance, while a C4H paint coating brings superior resistance in highly corrosive environments and protects against acids and bases.
The Heavy Duty pump can be used for slurry transfer with minimal wear and tear, precise chemical dosing to enhance operational efficiency, dewatering to avoid the risk of flooding and environmental damage, and for safely transporting tailings to ensure compliance with regulations.
Grace Madden, Bredel Product Manager, said: “The Bredel Heavy Duty pump offers exceptional safety and durability for mining and construction companies, significantly reducing downtime and increasing efficiency. Its advanced features ensure reliable performance in harsh environments, preventing costly downtime.
“By handling the unique challenges mining companies face around the world, the Heavy Duty pump enhances productivity, making it a safer, more efficient, and sustainable solution for the toughest conditions.”
