Bredel has launched two more SPX direct-coupled hose pumps. The SPX10, and SPX15 models offer improved durability, ease of maintenance and a 30 % smaller footprint than previous pumps. They are designed to fit 10, 15 and 20 mm hoses respectively. At the heart of the SPX direct-coupled design is a strong, twin-bearing hub integrated into the pumphead. The rotor is supported by its own bearings, whereas with close-coupled pumps the forces have to be absorbed by the gearbox bearings. In addition, the coupling and its guard are eliminated. The greased-for-life pump bearings are incorporated into the cast-iron SPX pumphead, reducing maintenance and set-up times. An innovative leak zone has been created between the pumphead bearings and the gearbox beatings. Time to change the hose has also been reduced in the two pumps by much simpler hose clamping and flange design. All SPX series hose pumps conform to EHEDG and Atex standards and offer reliable, contamination-free metering and pumping to 80 m³/h and pressures of up to 16 bar.
