Mouvex will be exhibiting its SLC series of eccentric disc pumps at the Institute of Food Technologists (IFT) Annual Meeting & Food Expo 2011, which takes place from 11-14 June 2011, in New Orleans, USA.
of handling solids and abrasives, self-priming, line strippin, and the ability to run dry. SLC-Series pumps also feature CIP cleaning, SIP sterilization, and include versions with both 3A and EHEDG certifications.
The pump range is suitable for fluid-handling applications within the food processing industry, where it can deliver improved volumetric efficiencies. The SLC-Series pumps can handle thin, abrasive, aggressive and higher viscosity fluids. They have a seal-less construction, low shear and agitation of the pumped product, the capability
Mouvex says that eccentric eisc pump technology is becoming known in food applications as the “problem solver” through its delivering the performance of traditional positive displacement pumps, while creating a constant flow that is independent of both pressure and viscosity.
Graphalloy (graphite/metal alloy) tin based babbitt is environmentally safe to machine and use, and eliminates the need for grease or oil, thus reducing contamination and maintenance. Graphite Metallizing Corporation says that the materials could replace plastics because they offer improved heat dissipation
Tin materials suitable for high temperature bearings Graphite Metallizing Corporation has developed a new range of tin based babbitt Graphalloy materials for high temperature bearing applications up to 350˚F (175˚C). The materials are available in NSF certified grades for drinking water and are FDA accepted. They are suitable for use as self-lubricating bearings in submerged and dry applications.

and will not melt or cold flow. In low temperature applications (-400˚F/-205˚C), the bearings can help solve lubrication problems caused by the viscosity of grease and oil. The materials can be used in potable water, food applications and traditional low temperature applications.
Used in the manufacture of bushings, bearings and other components for machinery and process equipment, Graphalloy materials are self-lubricating, impervious to temperature extremes (from -400°F to +1000° F/-240°C to 535°C) and thrive in harsh environments. www.graphalloy.com www.worldpumps.com
