Chemical Metering Pump Applications

Chemical metering pumps automatically dose a precise volume of chemicals and other substances within a specified time. The pump's chambers expand and contract to gently move liquids and slurries, making them ideal for shear sensitive substances. This pump style also features corrosion-resistant housing and components to withstand exposure to chemicals, acids, and other harsh substances.

Industrial metering pumps are widely used in wastewater treatment plants, cooling towers, greenhouses, and other applications requiring precise dosing. Designed for low maintenance operation and longevity, chemical metering pumps are the perfect solution for your dosing application.

Metering Pumps for Water and Wastewater Treatment Facilities

Water treatment and purification involve several stages to effectively removing sludge, sediment, and harmful contaminants before reuse or release into the environment. Accurate chemical dosing is imperative for cleanliness and proper disinfection, and to regulate pH balances.
Industrial metering pump applications include:

• Adjusting pH
• Disinfection
• Dechlorinating
• Dewatering equipment

Remember that not all pumps are appropriate for wastewater treatment. Before choosing a pump, consider the types of chemicals and substances pumped and their viscosity. For example, some chemical metering pumps cannot handle slurries. Flow and control requirements are also essential. Others might not exhibit the level of corrosion resistance needed for harsh chemical applications.

Chemical Metering Pumps for Greenhouse and Landscaping Applications

Chemical metering pumps are used by greenhouses and hydroponics growing facilities to mix, dose, and inject fluids based on your system’s flow rate.  Precise dosing helps you support soil pH and administer the right balance of water and nutrients to plants and crops.
The automation features of chemical metering pumps make it easy to manage large growing operations by scheduling watering and feeding. Monitor your pumping system on site or remotely using compatible software. Use chemical metering pumps to dose a range of substances, including:

• Water
• Fertilizer
• Nutrients for hydroponics
