A new concept in mixing and simultaneous aeration of all types of liquids has been introduced by ITT Flygt. Designated as FloGet, the system incorporates a Flygt submersible pump, an air suction tube, and an ejector/diffuser nozzle. One or more submersible pumps can be used with one or more ejectors. Pumps of different power and hydraulic performance can be connected to ejectors of different flow capacities to meet most system requirements. The systems are suitable for any type of tank regardless of its size, shape or depth. ITT Flygt Corp. Trumbull, CT Tel: 203-380-4700
Blackflow prevention

The new Conbraco® spill-resistant vacuum breaker prevents cross-connections without allowing a water spill. Designated the 4W-500 Series, the new valve is designed to prevent contamination of the potable water supply due to back-siphonage. During normal flow conditions, the units check valve remains open and the atmospheric vent seals in the bonnet assembly. As the line pressure falls to 1 psi, the spring-loaded atmospheric vent opens and the check valve closes, breaking the vacuum and preventing back-siphonage. Conbraco Industries Inc.

Aquionics' closed-vessel Inline UV disinfection systems use high intensity medium pressure lamps for disinfecting primary, secondary or tertiary treated wastewater. The disinfection chambers are compact, can be installed directly into existing pipework, are designed for gravity fed or pumped applications, and provide minimal headloss. Because of the inline design and lamp technology, the systems have a smaller footprint versus an open channel configuration. Aquionics Inc. Erlanger, KY Tel: 800-925-0440 Web: www.aquionics.com

Blue-White's new F-430N Variable Area Flowmeters are machined from solid cast acrylic rod stock, which is highly polished to a clear, glass-like finish. The flowmeters can be equipped with 1 1/2 in. or 2 in. F/NPT adapters. The PVC adapters directly thread into the meter body and have Viton o-ring seals. The rod guided floats are 316 stainless steel (Hastelloy C is optional). The Dual GPM/LPM direct reading scales are screen printed onto the meter body, and a white back reflector enhances meter readability. Calibrations range from 4.0 to 100 gpm or 15 to 375 lpm.
