Without Compromising Performance
Pumping aggressive, explosive and highly toxic liquids requires the highest level of process safety. To protect people and the environment, leakage of the pumped liquid must be avoided ° including in the event of a pump failure. For these most critical applications a magnetic drive pump equipped with a monitored, double containment shell still remains the safest solution. To reduce the heat generated by a purely metallic, double containment shell and at the same time to improve the overall efficiency of the pump, Klaus Union has developed and patented a new hybrid double containment shell.

Without Compromising Performance
Through the use of non-metallic containment shells instead of the traditionally used metallic containment shells, Klaus Union eliminates eddy current losses and increases the efficiency of magnet drive pumps significantly. Thanks to the leak-free magnet drive concept, pumps with magnet drives have a huge market share in the chemical and petrochemical industry. For many years, Klaus Union has used nonmetallic containment shells and particularly those made from ceramics for various applications due to their high chemical resistance. Until recently, the operative range has been limited due to the specific material characteristics. However, pump applications increasingly demand higher operating pressures, temperatures and flow rates whilst still offering maximum efficiency.

Towards A Greener, Hydrogen-Powered World
As the world seeks sustainable energy solutions, hydrogen is emerging as a key player in the transition to a greener future. At Klaus Union, we‘re proud to be at the forefront of this revolutionary journey by manufacturing state-of-the art magnetic drive pumps for hydrogen production appli cations. Magnetic drive pumps play a crucial role in the production of hydrogen. They ensure the safe and efficient pumping of fluids in processes like alkaline water (for KOH or NaOH) and PEM electrolysis, where hydrogen is generated from ultra pure water.

ELIMINATING THE RISKOF CAVITATION
The new ORCA® trim provides huge advantages against other solutions. Plates mounted on both sides of the disc allow the pressure to drop in several stages and prevent supersonic speed in gases and prevent the cavitation in liquids. One or more sets of plates can be mounted in accordance to the customer needs, allowing an excellent flow control when the valve is partially open.
Since the plates are mounted parallel to the disc and moved together with the disc, they do not interfere with the flow when the valve is fully open. This ensures the maximum Kv / Cv value remains as this of a standard valve.

BUTTERFLY VALVES
The same designer who invented and patented the four offset butterfly valve in 2008 is introducing now the newest evolution in butterfly valve design. The first butterfly valve in the world which is not using a regular cone for it´s seat design. In the newly designed V-AXX® valve, the seat shape can be changed around the whole seat without restrictions. If necessary, the angle of the seat, even in the shaft area, can be 25° or more, without changing the angle in other areas. This is only possible due to the unique seat design, which is not formed by a simple cone but by a much more complex figure, not yet named in geometry.
