Peristaltic Pumps for Mining Applications - Find out More at MiningWorld Central Asia

Verderflex® pumps will be on display at this year’s MiningWorld Central Asia exhibition held in Almaty, Kazakhstan between the 21st and 23rd September. Verderflex’s innovative Dura peristaltic pumps will be displayed with their local distributors Enko in Pavilion 9A on Stand Number A26.

Verderflex peristaltic pumps are the first choice for mines around the world, offering unrivalled performance in a tough and uncompromising environment. Only hose pumps can pump slurries with sub-micron solid contents in excess of 80% and with slurry SGs in excess of 2.0 without suffering from continuous maintenance downtime.

The Verderflex Dura range has an engineered one piece flange design that keeps scheduled maintenance time to an absolute minimum by dramatically reducing the time taken to change the hose, the only wearing part on a peristaltic pump. In addition to the Dura series, Verderflex also boast the world’s largest peristaltic pump, the VF125. Capable of pumping 90m3/hr and pressures up to 16 Bar, the Verderflex VF125 handles the toughest jobs in the harshest of environments.

Find out more about Verderflex pumps at the Environ Stand, Pavilion 9A on Stand Number A26 at MiningWorld Central Asia, the largest international specialised exhibition for mining and processing of metals and minerals in Kazakhstan and Central Asia, annually uniting leading experts of the mining industry and representing a full spectrum of equipment, technologies and services for the mining industry.

What is Class I Division 2?

Image
A Class I Division 2 is a location: (1) In which volatile flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are handled, processed, or used, but in which the liquids, vapors, or gases will normally be confined within closed containers or closed systems from which they can escape only in case of accidental rupture or breakdown of such containers or systems or in case of abnormal operation of equipment, or (2) In which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are normally prevented by positive mechanical ventilation, and which might become hazardous through failure or abnormal operation of the ventilating equipment. Class I Division 2 Classification Class I Division 2 refers to the ANSI/ISA 12.12.01 standard. This standard was previously UL1604 until UL recommended the newer ANSI/ISA standard be used and that all hazardous location products be certified under this standa...

FUSE SIZING CONSIDERATIONS FOR HIGHER EFFICIENCY MOTORS

Image
When selecting the proper fuse for short circuit protection in motor starting applications, it is important to not only ensure that the fuse will not nuisance open during motor start up times, but also that the fuse will coordinate as required with overload relays. When sizing fuses between 125% and 150% of the motor nameplate current, several advantages, including ease of coordination with an overload device, a smaller disconnect, and increased short circuit protection from a lower fuse rating, can be achieved. However, if sizing at this level prevents the motor from starting, it may then be necessary to increase the fuse ampere rating and it then becomes important to know the NEC sizing limitations. As of June 1, 2016, the US Department of Energy has mandated that newly manufactured electric motors will need to meet NEMA Premium® efficiency standards. As motor efficiencies increase, motor locked rotor currents can also be expected to increase. In addition to this, with across-the-lin...

7/8 16UN Connectors that Provide 600 Volts and 15 Amps

TURCK announces new A-Size 3 and 4-pin 7/8 16UN powerfast™ connectors that provide up to 600 Volts and 15 Amps of power. These IP67 rated connectors provide a modular wiring system designed to handle high current applications for machine power distribution, while providing resistance to vibration commonly associated with conveyors, motors and material handling applications. The cordsets are available with a tray rated, exposed run PVC flexlife ® cable, with or without STOOW rating, and 14 AWG wires that allow you to replace hard wiring with a robust, quick disconnect system that saves the time and money spent installing a conduit system. The A-Size powerfast line offers male and female, straight connectors, standard and custom lengths, and pigtails or extensions. To make the system complete, fully encapsulated mating receptacles, with 1/2”-14 NPT mounting threads are available.
