Bearings that are 100% reliable: longer lasting and more energy efficient
Even details are important when making a pump. Bearing life, for example, is a key aspect on the reliability of the pump. The purpose of ball bearings is mainly to support the whole load of the shaft line and also withstand the axial thrust of the rotor. Pump manufacturers usually guarantee that their bearings […]

It is important to highlight that when we speak about testing we do not just mean the different control protocols relative to design, the assembly procedures and the compliance of the individual parts. What guarantees the […]
Peripheral Pumps
Peripheral electric pumps may generally be regarded as an intermediate category between centrifugal pumps and volumetric pumps. While in the first category, an increase in the head implies a decrease in the flow rate, in the latter the flow rate is not affected by pressure. Instead, the curve of the peripheral pumps follows a trend […]
