Hose pumps by Bredel

Bredel heavy-duty hose pumps handle abrasive sludge, paste, and slurries at 100% volumetric accuracy. Unlike diaphragm, rotary lobe, and PC pumps, no moving parts come into contact with the product, and there are no mechanical seals. They completely contain the pumped fluid in a long-life hose, preventing operator contact with chemicals, slurries or sludge. Every Bredel hose is precision machined to ensure flow stability and pump performance in tough fluid handling applications.

Flow rates up to 108 cubic metres/hr at 16bar can be achieved and our industrial pumps can transfer up to 80% solids in suspension. Unlike many other pump types, flow is entirely independent of suction and discharge conditions. Heavy duty bearings within the pump rotor and a unique buffer zone, protect gearing from overhung loads and contamination. Only Bredel industrial hose pumps provide this level of engineering expertise for their drives.

Fully protected drive

Using direct coupled technology, Bredel combines the reliability of long-coupled pumps with the compact footprint of close-coupled pumps. Heavy duty rotor bearings within the pump rotor and an innovative buffer zone protect gearing from overhung loads and contamination.

Save time and money

High maintenance diaphragm, rotary lobe, or progressive cavity pumps can’t match the rugged, reliable 24/7 dependability of the Bredel Series:

• No ancillary equipment, check valves or sealing water flush systems
• Pumps abrasive slurries, corrosive acids, large solids and gaseous liquids with ease
• Ideal for high viscosity or shear sensitive product
• Run-dry indefinitely without damage
• Minimal maintenance – just change the hose
• Suction lift capability up to 9.5 metres and self-priming
• ±1% metering accuracy

The APEX^™ hose pump from Bredel has set the standard for lowering acquisition, operating and maintenance costs for low to medium pressure applications. APEX pumps are engineered for a more competitive price/performance ratio vs high pressure hose pumps. 

The higher flow per revolution means APEX pumps can be run at lower speeds, increasing hose life and reducing wear. With no costly wear components such as seals, valves, membranes or rotors to maintain, APEX is ideal for handling abrasive slurries and aggressive chemicals.

Compared with other pump types, APEX uptime periods are significantly longer. Maintenance consists of replacing a single hose element, a task that can be performed in minutes.

Bredel hose pumps safely handle abrasive sludge, paste and slurries at 100% volumetric accuracy. Viscous fluids with up to 80% solids in suspension can be pumped with ease.

The fluid is fully contained within the hose, meaning no moving parts come into contact with the fluid to be pumped. This makes the hose the single most important component in the pump. Only Bredel precision hoses, manufactured to exacting standards, can provide accurate flow rates, long-life and 24 hour reliability.

At Bredel we are one of the only pump companies to manufacture our own high-performance hoses, specifically for use with our hose pumps, using the highest quality compounded rubbers, reinforced with layers of braided nylon.
