KECO Inc. / Rotho
About
KECO Pump and Equipment, established in 1954 and based in San Diego, California, is the exclusive North American distributor of Ragazzini Rotho peristaltic (hose) pumps, combining Italian engineering with American distribution and support. The Rotho line covers flows from 0.10 to 47,750 GPH at pressures up to 290 PSI across four series: S for small-capacity precision dosing, M for medium industrial transfer, L for high-flow applications, and LD for heavy-duty continuous operation with abrasive and caustic slurries. The valveless, sealless design uses the hose as its sole wear part, enabling quick field replacement, self-priming to 29.5 feet, dry-run tolerance, bidirectional flow, and integrated leak detection shutdown. KECO's Pump-A-Head division delivers dockside, remote, and centralized marine sewage pumpout systems, while the Marina Trash Skimmer provides automated surface debris collection for waterways and harbors. The company also supplies diaphragm and vacuum pump systems for marine sanitation. Documented case studies demonstrate 69 percent energy reduction at CERDOMUS ceramics and 36-month hose life on copper powder slurry at IRCE SPA. KECO advocates a Right to Repair philosophy through modular designs and twelve hose sizes, serving water treatment, chemical dosing, food and beverage, mining, ceramics, paints and coatings, and marine industries.
