Precision gear metering pumps provide reliable, accurate, and pulse-free metering for many fluid process conditions over a broad range of applications. Many gear pumps provide simple transfer of liquids, while others are designed with exceptionally tight tolerances to provide extremely accurate flow in applications that require precision metering. Precision Gear …
When plant engineers are tasked with selecting and specifying chemical metering pumps, the two common choices that come to mind are either a reciprocating plunger pump or a diaphragm pump. Gear pumps typically are seldom considered as conventional metering pumps have almost become synonymous with reciprocating pumps. Conventional metering pumps, …
Metering pumps move a specific volume of liquid in a specified period of time, often giving users the impression that this provides an accurate amount of pumped volume. When using a gear pump, users can see improvements in accurate flow by using a flow meter. Metering Pump Accuracy Depends on …
Removing particles through an ultrafiltration water treatment process is a key component in providing clean water for subsequent use. Water filtration pumps are used to pump water through a membrane that removes particles as small as 0.01 μm, or microns, such as suspended solids, bacteria, and other small particles. Ultrafiltration …
A metering pump is a type of pump that is used to precisely transfer a volume of liquid with accurate control of the flow rate over a specified period of time. Metering pumps are sometimes also used for dosing or injecting various liquids and are used in different industries. Metering …
Precise and accurate control of dosing flavorings, essence, fragrances, or any other food additive is key to high product quality. Any slight alteration of a flavorant can significantly alter the characteristics of a food or beverage product causing it to become too sour, sweet, or tangy. Different additives can change …
One of the most important aspects in commercial cultivation is the need for farmers to get nutrients to their crops. A nutrient dosing or delivery system that injects fertilizers or other water-soluble solutions into large batch tanks or irrigation lines is known as fertigation. Some automated systems manage only the …
Water cooling towers are used in various industrial processes to cool process equipment such as machinery and presses, chillers, and air-conditioners to prevent overheating and maintain an ambient air temperature. Water leaves the cooling tower in a few different ways, mostly through evaporation. A small amount of water may leave …
OVERVIEW: Illinois Process Equipment, IPE, was asked to provide a chemical dosing system for boiler water treatment at a large steel mill. IPE is a leading Midwest supplier of fluid handling and process equipment, offering full system design, service, and quality pumps. We provide innovative solutions to fluid transfer applications …
Sodium hypochlorite, also known as liquid bleach, remains the number one water disinfectant. The main concern when sodium hypochlorite is used is ensuring that there are no leaks which can risk dangerous skin exposure. Another concern is the propensity of sodium hypochlorite to cause off-gassing when being pumped. Challenges When …
