Product Focus: Pressure Gauges

Jenni RoseLatest News Leave a Comment

Pressure gauges are a critical component of any fire sprinkler system, and help understand the status of each part of the system, whether it’s wet or dry.

SEP Going Global

Jenni RoseLatest News Leave a Comment

Since our foundation over 30 years ago, SEP has been almost completely UK-centric, with our only significant export market being Ireland. Things are changing!

At SEP, we regularly try to keep customers informed of our product range, and any latest developments, using various means (we have a monthly email newsletter, a Twitter account and a LinkedIn account).

Finally, our new 3ph compressor!

Jenni RoseLatest News Leave a Comment

We are excited to report that, after more than a year in the planning, making and testing, our new 3-phase/400v compressor pump is available. It’s well over two years since we were informed by our pump supplier that the ‘sturdy old’ 2.2kw/3hp SEP850T pumps were being discontinued. Unfortunately, it then took them over a year to advise us of their …
