Submersible pump

Click here to enlarge image

A new hydraulic driven submersible pump from Godwin Pumps handles thick, solids laden liquids and up to 5-inch diameter solids. A remote actuated "slurry gate" enables the pump to be used as a mixer in applications where sludges are so thick they are initially unpumpable. After mixing to a pumpable consistency, the gate can be closed and the sludge pumped away. Uses include municipal wastewater treatment plant sludge tank cleaning and emptying.

To keep residuals high at dead-ends automatically, Kupferle Foundry has released it's new #9700 Automatic Hydrant Flusher. The flusher attaches to any 2 1/2" NST nozzle, and then the flushing cycle can be selected, usually at night. Man-hour savings can be realized by flushing troublesome dead-ends without sending personnel.

Mixing system

The SolarBee is a solution for solving mixing problems in finished water reservoirs and tanks. The solar-powered, high flow, low energy circulator can be installed inside a reservoir/tank with the solar panels mounted on the outside. If chemicals are used, a chemical injection unit can be supplied with the injection line run to the intake of the circulator so it can be used to disperse and completely mix the chemicals in the reservoir/tank.

Radio systems

The new Dataradio OIP, the latest product to enhance the Integra-TR product family, allows customers to construct a reliable IP/Ethernet network over licensed radio frequencies. The system optimizes IP/Ethernet communications by using sophisticated compression techniques. It is equipped with two different modes of operation, an easy-to-use transparent bridge mode or an advanced router mode. The system allows users to form multi-hop store and forward networks, which significantly reduces the need for expensive infrastructure, lowering the total cost of deployment.

Ammonia, nitrate analyzer

The Myratek® Sentry C-2™ Analyzer provides real-time measurement of ammonia and nitrate levels at any point in the treatment process -- even in the heaviest mixed liquor. The analyzer's patented collection chamber captures and evaluates a sample on the spot. The analyzer is calibrated in the actual environment it will measure. It uses a sophisticated mathematical algorithm to self-calibrate at the point of use, taking into account water quality, temperature and other factors.

Sampling valve

The Quik™ Sampling Valve from Strahman Valves is designed for taking a quick sampling where a small, controlled sample is desired. Employing a combination of both rising stem and quarter-turn valves, the sampling valve enables the liquid flow to be regulated during the sampling process. A custom, ergonomically designed handle provides a lock-in-place feature for operator safety. An automatic quarter-turn actuator can be mounted to the valve pad as well.
