Our pumps are engineered to handle aggressive, corrosive, or volatile chemicals and can operate under extreme conditions, including high-pressure chemical dosing applications. Whether you require a compact chlorine dosing pump for disinfection or a large-scale industrial dosing pump for wastewater treatment, we provide solutions that ensure efficiency, accuracy, and long service life.
An Overview of Chemical Dosing Pumps
A chemical dosing pump is a type of positive displacement pump widely used across industries for accurate chemical injection. These pumps deliver a controlled and consistent flow of chemicals, fluids or liquid, making them critical in processes such as disinfection, coagulation, sludge treatment, and nutrient removal. Their ability to maintain precision under varying conditions makes them one of the most reliable water treatment pumps available today.
How Chemical Injection Pumps Work
The chemical feed pump operates on a straightforward mechanism. A motor-driven piston or diaphragm creates suction, drawing the chemical or fluid from an external tank into the pump. With each stroke, the pump pressurizes the chemical or fluid, closing the inlet valve, opening the outlet valve, and injecting the chemical into the main stream. Flow rates can be adjusted to meet process requirements, allowing accurate and safe chemical dosing for a wide range of industrial and commercial applications.
Key Factors in Selecting a Chemical Dosing Pump System
To maximize performance and minimize downtime, it’s crucial to evaluate the following before choosing a chemical dosing pump system:
- Flow Rate Requirements: Select the right capacity to avoid under- or over-dosing.
- Operating Environment: Ensure pumps can withstand temperature, pressure, and chemical exposure.
- Material Compatibility: Choose pumps constructed from corrosion-resistant materials for aggressive fluids.
- Chemical Type: Special designs may be required for slurries or highly viscous chemicals.
- Control Mechanism: Advanced systems may include electronic controllers for precise dosing adjustments.
Additionally, checking the desired capacity, leak protection mechanisms, temperature and pressure ranges, life expectancy, and method of control must be carefully evaluated before sourcing the item.
Typical Applications of Chemical Dosing Pumps
Owing to their capability in handling large quantities of fluids, chemical feeding pumps are used across industries for several purposes. Agriculture, horticulture, breweries, power generation, oil and gas, pharmaceutical, food processing, and mining are a few amongst the several industries that demand chemical dosing pumps for the following applications.
- Maintaining pH to a desired range
- Mixing disinfectants, flocculants and scale inhibitors
- Ultrafiltration
- Transferring activated sludge during secondary treatment
- Adding fluoride to the public water supply
- Controlling odor in tertiary treatment
- Oxidation and disinfection
