Kink-free flexibility Alongside benefits such as increased service life, reduced maintenance, less CIP downtime and lower processing costs, FaBLine offers excellent liner flexibility in a kink-resistant design that requires less force to bend than competitor smooth bore products. Furthermore, the product carries up to twice the flow of similar-sized convoluted delivery hoses, providing a faster, more efficient processing solution. Neoprene In Bridge

Operating performance is also elevated. For instance, traditional rubber hoses can block or burst in applications that involve the transfer of highly viscous media, with FaBLine’s low-friction, smooth-bore construction minimises back-pressure to avoid downtime and material losses.
Smooth operator Eliminating the potential for any product entrapment or bacterial build up, FaBLine’s smooth bore is one of many inherent hygiene design features. Moreover, as its construction is free of internal adhesives, the hose will not absorb product or cleaning chemicals that can leach into and taint subsequent product batches.
The PTFE lining further ensures cleanability with excellent chemical and heat resistance during CIP cycles. FaBLine’s high temperature rating also makes it perfect for utility connections to steam and hot water systems, highlighting its versatility throughout food and beverage production processes.
Both PTFE-lined and non-lined end fittings are available with a laser-etched ferrule for traceability. A range of braid, cover and external protection options complete the offer.

The flexible, single-use solutions range has been developed by building on years of experience including the predecessor brands of puresu and asepticsu, and is designed to streamline a biopharmaceutical company’s process, safeguard its product and reduce its regulatory burden.
As food and beverage companies strive for better water management in their production processes, selecting the right pump has become increasingly important. If a company can reduce its water usage then less water needs to be treated, which produces cost savings while also meeting environmental and sustainability standards.
DriveSure integrates motor, mounting and in-house closed-loop control technology to reduce development times and risks for OEMs in sourcing their own motor/mounting solutions.
A Qdos CWT (Conveying Wave Technology) chemical metering pump ran for over 21 months dosing chlorine at Ergon – West Virginia Inc.’s paraffinic refinery in Newell, West Virginia in the United States, after replacing a diaphragm pump which lasted less than half the time on average.
Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Solutions (WMFTS) has significantly enhanced its Qdos Conveying Wave Technology (CWT) pumps by increasing their pressure capability. The pumps are now capable of delivering flow rates of 500 ml/min at pressures of up to 130 PSI (9 bar), a substantial increase from its previous capacity of 100 PSI (7 bar).
Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Solutions (WMFTS) has launched the Qdos H-FLO chemical metering and dosing pump, designed specifically for higher flow rates up to 158 gallons per hour (600 L/h).
