ATEX certified pumps and flowmeters from KTH

Hazardous environments come as standard with many of the jobs in which KT Hydraulics become involved: the range of centrifugal pumps from German manufacturer Kracht fits this bill perfectly

Hazardous environments such as those found in the petrochemical, gas and processing industries where vapour, fumes and fine powder mists are created require protecting from any risk of ignition.

ATEX certified equipment conforms to current legislation, removing this risk and maintaining a safer working environment.

"As regulations have tightened we are noticing a considerable increase in enquiries for our ATEX certified products," comments KTH director Richard Ellis.

"There are very few manufacturers out there with the right products for hazardous environments and customers often don't know where to turn when original equipment breaks down.

You can't simply repair a pump and put it back into these environments, you need ATEX certified replacement parts to ensure continued operational safety".

KT Hydraulics designs and manufactures bespoke hydraulic systems for such diverse industries as food, oil and gas, marine and even Formula One motor racing and supplies products including valve actuators, flowmeters and pumps.

The company is the sole distributor for Kracht pumps, flowmeters and hydraulic equipment in the United Kingdom and has the worldwide agency for Kracht marine spares.

Further information on the specialist ATEX range of Kracht pumps and flowmeters can be found on the KTH website.
