Mouvex debuts new models of Abaque Series pumps

Mouvex introduced the new models in their peristaltic pumps at ACHEMA in Germany.

Unveiled at ACHEMA 2015, these new Abaque models incorporate a stronger and durable rotor design and innovative hose holding system while featuring a fresh, new look of orange and black.

Abaque pumps meet the challenging requirements of the chemicals industry, thanks in part to its seal-free design that eliminates leaks and product contamination. These self-priming pumps can run in forward or reverse and offer suction-lift capabilities to 25.5 feet (9 meters), as well as the ability to run dry without adversely affecting performance, pressure and accuracy (no slip). Abaque pumps are available in ductile iron and stainless steel construction, allowing higher discharge pressure up to 217 psi (15 bar).

“As one of the world’s largest trade shows dedicated to the chemical-processing industry, the ACHEMA Show was a perfect venue to debut new models of, as
well as the new look for, the Abaque Series pumps,” said Christophe Jovani, PSG EMEA Marketing Communications Manager. “Achieving full containment of raw materials, many of which can be hazardous to people and the environment, is a key consideration for chemical processors. Abaque pumps are the ideal technology to utilize when looking to optimize the safe and efficient handling and transfer of these dangerous chemical materials.”

Mouvex Launches A55 Model & Celebrates 50 Years of A Series Pumps

Mouvex Launches A55 Model & Celebrates 50 Years of A Series Pumps

Mouvex® is pleased to announce the addition of the new A55 model of its A Series Eccentric Disc Pumps. These pumps have been designed to replace existing Mouvex AR O pumps and are ideal for industrial applications involving both thin and viscous liquids. Thanks to its unique eccentric disc design, operational benefits of Mouvex A55 pumps include dry-run and self-priming capabilities with strong suction power, shear-sensitive operation, outstanding volumetric efficiency output not affected by viscosity variations and the ability to strip transfer lines.

Features and benefits of Mouvex A55 pumps include: 

  • Ductile iron construction
  • Ability to handle differential pressures up to 10 bar (145 psi)
  • Availability of both Mouvex or standardized mechanical seals
  • 4″ suction and discharge ports
  • Maximum flow rates up to 55 m3/h (242 gpm)

Product Recovery Means Profit Recovery – PSG Dover

The key to optimizing Product Recovery and, by extension, profit recovery is identifying and employing the most efficient and reliable pumping technology, one that can be trusted to reliably strip suction or discharge lines of valuable raw materials and salable end-products. For more than a century, Eccentric Disc Pump technology from Mouvex has stood ready to optimize Product Recovery rates thanks to an operating principle that provides non-pulsing, low-slip operation with high volumetric consistency.

Comparing Pump Technologies

Comparing Pump Technologies

For many years, the go-to technology for hygienic manufacturing processes in the food and beverage, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries have been lobe or external circumferential piston (ECP) pumps and, to a lesser extent, centrifugal, hose and progressive cavity styles. The following chart provides a comparison overview of various pump technologies when taking into account several key consideration points when implementing a Product Recovery pump solution. The eccentric disc pumps heightened product-recovery capabilities is that it operates via a disc that moves on an eccentric plane within a circular channel, which gives the pump the ability to provide non-pulsing, low-slip operation with high volumetric consistency.

Mouvex® Launches Product Recovery Initiative at IFT’14

Mouvex® Launches Product Recovery Initiative at IFT’14

Mouvex® is pleased to announce the launch its new Product Recovery Initiative. Officially launched at the Institute of Food Technologists’ IFT Annual Meeting & Food Expo – which took place from June 21-24 in New Orleans, LA, USA – this new Product Recovery Initiative shows hygienic manufacturers the enormous potential for operational waste reduction and associated cost savings (or “Profit Recovery”) by using Mouvex Eccentric Disc Pump Technologies.

Mouvex’s new Product Recovery Initiative provides hygienic manufacturers with a complete suite of market-specific tools that have been designed to increase knowledge and highlight the tremendous cost-savings potential from utilizing Mouvex Product Recovery Technology. The product recovery program includes a new website – available in multiple languages – that serves as an online repository for market knowledge, instructional videos, brochures, blog articles and other sales tools.
