The company’s range matches the demands of valuable, delicate or difficult fluids and is specifically designed for the pumping of slurries, liquids and semi-liquids.

Watson-Marlow Bredel, part of the London Stock Exchange-listed Spirax-Sarco Group, has been a world leader in peristaltic pumps for more than 50 years and is the first manufacturer to offer a five-year warranty on its 520, 620 and 720 ranges of peristaltic pumps.

It is one of the fastest-growing peristaltic pump companies in the world, offering problem-solving products of high quality and durability, combined with low-maintenance benefits.

Bredel’s Brains and Watson-Marlow’s Wise computerised hose pump sizing programmes accurately specify pump and pipe sizes, layouts, speeds, hose materials and all other factors needed to improve efficiency in each installation.

Watson-Marlow Bredel claims to produce a wider range of peristaltic pumps than any other company and can meet virtually any capacity and control requirement using options of fixed or variable speed, digital, analogue or manual control, and single or multichannel flows.

The peristaltic pump offers flow rates from microlitres a minute to tens of thousands of litres an hour. Unlike other pumps, the peristaltic has no valves, seals or glands, reducing maintenance and the risk of breakdown. The only routine maintenance is changing the tube or hose, which can be done by the process operator, while a change of fluid simply requires cleaning or changing the tube or hose.

Bredel’s patented SPX direct-coupled compact design combines the size and simplicity of a close-coupled pump with the reliability and ease of main-tenance of a bareshaft design.

The hose pump combines a small footprint with a fully protected drive. In fact, the gearbox plugs directly into the pumphead, creating an innovative buffer zone that provides additional protection for the pump bearings and gearbox. This design also allows for trouble-free alignment and fitting of the rotor.

Employing patented technology, more than 75 000 Bredel SPX high-pressure hose pumps are solving the toughest pumping problems around the world.

The new range of SPX10 and SPX15 direct-coupled pumps offers improved durability and easier maintenance, a result of the direct-coupled design. It creates a pump that is 25% stronger, 10% lighter, uses 30% fewer parts and has a 30% smaller footprint.
