Dosing pumps are portable, positive displacement pumps. They are built to pump an accurate flow ratio of a substance or chemical into.
Water, gas, or steam. Dosing pumps distribute this flow ratio of chemicals or other products by various techniques. However, it mainly implicates pulling a gauged quantity into a compartment and then inserting the chemical in the tank or pipe being dosed. A dosing pump is used in various applications from industry, agriculture, medicine to manufacturing.
A dosing pump is commonly very small. It is given power by an air actuator or a minor electric motor. They are regulated by an outer control network or more typically an internal controller for the pump which can modify the flow ratio, the on and off method, and other things such as warnings and alarms for running degassing and short product levels.
What are dosing pumps used for?
A dosing pump has an enormous spectrum of applications in many industries. This varies from agriculture, water treatment, manufacturing, medical, industrial, medical, mining, and food processing. Commonly a dosing pump is installed to inoculate a particular product into the fluid or water stream. This causes a physical or chemical reaction. This may be as easy as putting in a caustic chemical or an acid to water which gets the pH in the required range. They can also be used for various other products such as flocculants that compel a solid resolve out of the liquid or modify its properties.
Dosing pumps can be used for dosing chemicals in the stream so that products are made. This is utilized for things such as manufacturing to get a normal thickness for an adhesive. The fundamental requirement of the pump is that over a period it should invariably provide the same quantity of liquid.
