ABEL pumped up by IndustriTech partnership in Australia

ABEL has announced a distribution partnership with IndustriTech Pty Ltd for the Australia mining market.

IndustriTech provides service-oriented solutions in three areas: technical advice, reliability and repair services and distribution services. Together with ABEL’s wide range of positive displacement pumps, it will provide complete customised product and service solutions for high solids concentrations and efficient dewatering processes. Typical applications are dewatering, tailings, solid transfer and thickener underflow.

For over 70 years, ABEL has specialised in pumps for filter press feeding and filter cloth cleaning. Both ABEL’s piston diaphragm and high-pressure plunger pump provide tailor-made features to ensure a short, efficient and energy saving filter press process for the customer, according to the company. This performance can be seen in the high level of dryness of the filter cake, resulting in increased daily metal extraction and profitability for the customer.

ABEL to supply HMQ pumps to major LatAm silver mine

Pump manufacturer ABEL says it recently landed a major order for three HMQ membrane piston pumps to be fitted at one of the largest silver mines in Latin America.

On site, these HMQ pumps (Hydraulic Membrane Quadruplex pumps) are used to transport mine water pumped from a shaft at a depth of 700 m at around 80 bar to the surface into a reservoir.

The HMQs are quadruplex-acting piston diaphragm pumps and manage high flow rates up to 450 m³/h, according to ABEL. They are primarily made for applications like transfer of tailings, mine dewatering and backfilling in mines.

In addition to mining, ABEL’s HMQs are also frequently used in the wastewater industry to transport sludge or feed filter presses.
