Amongst its portfolio of premium brands is Bredel. Bredel hose pumps and hose elements offer high reliability and low maintenance for high-flow, high-pressure duties. “We were in search of a second partner for Bredel to diversify our database. We were looking for a partner that offered local assembly and expertise” he explains.
This led Watson Marlow to Bonfiglioli. Harry Singh, NSW Sales Manager for Bonfiglioli Australia believes that the partnership was solidified by closely aligned values and a customer-centric approach to business.
The brief was to assemble Bredel pumps on behalf of Watson Marlow in various sizes (40, 50, 65, 80 and 100).
“After assembly, we supply and install our 300 series planetary gearmotor to drive these pumps. These particular pumps can be found in various sectors that require pumping application such as mining, construction and water treatment plants.”
Harry adds that the 300 planetary series was specifically selected to align to an international agreement that the companies already had in place. “This product is tried and tested around the world and delivers a seamless roll-out for maintenance, spares and repairs.”
Due to its high torque output and long service life, Bonfiglioli also supplies an inline planetary HD gearbox to drive the pump. “Selections can be made by size without changes to the pump. The product is available on various rations from a .37 to 15kW motor and speeds can be easily set depending on the pump requirement.”
When the partnership initially commenced, the Bonfiglioli team was thoroughly trained and supervised by Watson Marlow’s Engineering Services Manager; however, it soon became apparent that Bonfiglioli could operate efficiently on their own
Success!
