Visit the Watson-Marlow stand at bauma for expert fluid handling solutions

7 – 13 April 2025

Discover how our pumps and hoses are bringing benefits to mining and construction companies around the world by visiting our stand at bauma.

This is an opportunity for mining and construction professionals to learn more about how the engineering excellence of our peristaltic pumps can contribute to a more sustainable and efficient process. Whether handling polymers, flocculants, reagents, abrasive lime slurries, or corrosive chemicals, our pumps can accurately control the flow with minimal downtime for maintenance and very low-cost parts inventory. Importantly, our solutions can be relied upon in remote locations without the need for freshwater sources or ancillary equipment.

Bredel hose pumps handle abrasive sludge, paste, and slurries at 100% volumetric accuracy. The heavy-duty peristaltic hose pumps are virtually maintenance-free as there are no impellers, liners or mechanical seals to replace, no check valves to clog, and no rotors or stators to wear out. Flow rates up to 108 cubic metres/hr at 16 bar can be achieved with Bredel which can transfer up to 80% solids in suspension. Bredel is also helping mining customers reduce their environmental impact by treating contaminated minewater and safely containing corrosive liquids.

Qdos chemical metering and dosing pumps, with the ReNu cartridge pumphead at the core of its operation, meters reagents in thousands of mining installations worldwide. Qdos pumps provide accurate, repeatable and contained reagent dosing, pH control and slurry transfer between flotation and milling stages. Qdos H-FLO is designed specifically for higher flow rates up to 600 L/hr and pressure capability up to 7 bar. Like the rest of the Qdos range, Qdos H-FLO cuts costs through higher precision chemical metering, with an accuracy of ±1% and repeatability of ±0.5% in dosing.

Also on display will be:

Bredel NR Transfer hose for general fluid transfer applications at pressures up to 12 bar
Bredel EPDM hose for excellent chemical resistance, especially to ketones, alcohols and concentrated acids
Watson-Marlow cased pumps and ATEX certified close-coupled pumps, which provide a simple, low-maintenance pumping solution in challenging applications at mining and construction sites
Aflex hoses, lined with polytetrafluorethylene (PTFE), offer excellent chemical resistance
