Longer service life for
system 1 –
because there
are no unwanted vibrations
Longer service life for
system 2 –
lower wear
on the slide gate valve
Backup reservoir –
a compressed air resevoir
shuts down automatically
in case of power failure.
Operation continues
seamlessly
Tightly closing valves
prevent leaks
Clear structure
and more compact
Less noise:
much quieter operation
More efficient and reliable
pneumatics:
resistant to
constant strain, no
maintenance required,
simple installation, sturdy
and temperature-insensitive
Lower energy costs –
because the pump doesn't
need to overcome any flow
resistance
Increased operational
reliability –
the pump's
function is not impaired by
unwanted cavitation
No damage to the pipe
system –
as water hammer
is avoided

• Wastewater treatment
• Wastewater pumping station
The pumping station is the best possible proof that pneumatics
are an energy-efficient alternative for water treatment plants.
This is where the wastewater is pumped to the anaerobic
treatment or the biological filters.
"The decision
to use Festo
pneumatics at
this point is a
decision for
reliable
technology
and simple
installation.
And also for
saving energy
in ways I never
imagined were
possible."
