The Renner RT-VC series from Flux Pumps (Flux) has expanded to include the RT-VC 300 submersible centrifugal pump. Incorporating a compact design intended to save space, the centrifugal pump is capable of immersion depths of up to 23" (600mm) alongside the ability to run dry indefinitely, according to the company.

When compared to the traditional immersion pumps, this is effectively 4" longer (100 mm) with similar performance and dry-running safety. In addition, the RT-VC 300 performs well because of its optimized flow channels and impeller geometry, which results in extremely smooth operation over the entire performance curve, Flux says.

    The causes of and remedies for defects in hard chromium deposits are explored in the first of this two-part P&SF article from 1984.  Photomicrographs and SEM (scanning electron microscope) photo­graphs will illustrate that most defects in various hard chromium deposits arise from defects in the basis metal. These defects may be in the original metal surface or may be caused by preplate finishing. Homogeneous hard chromium deposits can be produced only by eliminating these defects. Practical suggestions and procedures will be given.
