Submersible Pumps handle temperatures up to 200°F.

2016-03-03 14:31:06| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today

Used to pump clear or solids-laden liquids up to 200°F, SKGF Series employs RAD-AX® Dual Shredding Technology, featuring radial and axial shredding elements of hardened 440C Stainless Steel (HRC 55), to obliterate difficult solids. Size of solids passage through impeller and volute, coupled to high-torque, 4-pole motor (2, 3, and 5 hp), enable large solids shredding. Motor winding protection and (NEMA) Class R motor insulation allows motor temperatures to rise 428°F without damage.

Heaviest rains, hottest temperatures in two decades batter Peru

2016-03-03 12:34:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed

Reuters: The heaviest rains and hottest temperatures in two decades have battered Peru over the past week as weather linked to El Nino caused flooding and landslides that blocked the country's central highway and forced scores from their homes. At least five people have died in weather related accidents since Monday, including four trapped in an unregulated mining pit, said Miguel Yamasaki, an official with state civil defense institute, Indeci. Peru's weather agency, Senamhi, put the country on alert for...

In grasslands, longer spring growing season offsets higher summer temperatures

2016-03-01 03:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed

ScienceDaily: Grasslands across North America will face higher summer temperatures and widespread drought by the end of the century, according to a new study. But those negative effects in vegetation growth will be largely offset, the research predicts, by an earlier start to the spring growing season and warmer winter temperatures. Led by ecologists Andrew Richardson and Koen Hufkens of Harvard University, a team of researchers developed a detailed model that enables predictions of how grasslands from Canada...

Arctic warming: Rapidly increasing temperatures are 'possibly catastrophic' for planet

2016-02-26 14:09:10| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed

Independent: The rapidly warming Arctic could have a catastrophic effect on the planets climate, a leading scientist has warned. Dr Peter Gleick, president of the Pacific Institute in California, said there was a growing body of pretty scary evidence that higher temperatures in the Arctic were driving the creation of dangerous storms in parts of the northern hemisphere. According to a graph on the US National Snow and Ice Data Centres website, there were 14.2 million km squared of sea ice on 24 February....
