Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Solutions (WMFTS) has launched BioPure Braided Hose assemblies as an end-to-end solution for companies requiring fitting, hose, assembly and testing.

Providing a safe, reliable and repeatable method of high-pressure fluid transfer, braided silicone hose assemblies combine BioPure platinum-cured silicone hose fitted with biopharmaceutical grade stainless steel tri-clamp connections.

Biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies can reduce supply chain risk and ensure quality control with the WMFTS total offering of hose assemblies designed for bulk fluid transfer and repeat use by autoclave sterilisation.  

With testing and assembly centres in the United States and the United Kingdom, the hose assemblies meet USP Class VI standards with 316 Stainless Fittings and an SF4 surface finish.

Mark Lovallo, Product Manager – Fluid Path – WMFTS, said: “Watson-Marlow is one of the only suppliers that produces biopharmaceutical grade silicone hose and machines stainless hygienic fittings in-house.   With decades of experience in silicone extrusion, CNC machining and hose assembly and testing, Watson-Marlow provides a unique opportunity for end-users to minimise supply chain risk and source silicone hose assemblies from a trusted supplier.”   

The hose assemblies are made to custom lengths and come with a permanently crimped stainless steel triclamp style fitting. All hose assemblies are pressure tested to check and confirm hose integrity.

About us

Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Group (WMFTG) peristaltic tube and hose pumps meet requirements including: value for money; low cost of ownership; reliability and ease of maintenance to the food and beverage, chemical, pharmaceutical, mining and many other industries.

We demonstrate how pumps deliver significant process efficiencies over the lifetime of the equipment. Whether performing flavouring addition in food processing, chemical metering in water treatment or mineral recovery, we have a solution which can cut pump downtime and reduce costs through higher accuracy metering and transfer. WMFTG has dedicated application engineers available to help customers make the right pump and tubing choice from a range providing microlitres per minute to 80 cubic metres per hour flow rates.

The only part of the pump to come into contact with the product is the tube or hose. This means there are no seals or valves that can wear or fail. Replacing the tube or hose can be performed quickly and safely. Peristaltic pump benefits include:

Total fluid containment with no seals No ancillaries Handle viscous and abrasive slurries and sludge Self-priming capability Dry running without damage to the pump In addition to their range of positive displacement pumps, Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Group has added PTFE-lined chemical and industrial hoses to their range. Aflex hoses are reinforced to withstand the most severe conditions and use.
