What is a chemical transfer pump with meter and how does it work?
A chemical transfer pump with meter is a precision pumping system that combines chemical transfer capabilities with integrated flow measurement technology. It accurately transfers corrosive chemicals, acids, and specialty fluids while providing real-time flow monitoring for process control, dosing applications, and batch operations in chemical processing industries.
How do I select the right chemical transfer pump with meter for my application?
Selection depends on chemical compatibility, flow rate requirements (up to 1400 m³/hr), operating temperature (up to 350°C), pressure rating, metering accuracy requirements, and material construction needs. Consider factors like corrosivity, viscosity, and specific gravity of the fluid, along with required flow measurement precision for your process control needs.
What are the key benefits of using chemical transfer pumps with integrated meters?
Key benefits include precise flow measurement and control, reduced installation complexity, improved process accuracy, real-time monitoring capabilities, enhanced safety through controlled chemical handling, reduced waste, better batch consistency, and integrated system design that minimizes potential leak points and maintenance requirements.
What materials are available for chemical transfer pumps with meters?
Chemitek offers both metallic and non-metallic construction options. Metallic pumps feature stainless steel grades (304, 316, 316L), exotic alloys (Hastelloy, Titanium, Monel), and super alloys. Non-metallic pumps use premium fluoropolymers like PVDF, PFA, and FEP for superior chemical resistance. Material selection depends on chemical compatibility and operating conditions.
What industries commonly use chemical transfer pumps with meters?
These pumps are widely used in pharmaceutical manufacturing for precise drug formulation, chemical processing for batch operations, specialty chemical production, water treatment plants for chemical dosing, semiconductor manufacturing, food and beverage processing, and research laboratories where accurate chemical transfer and measurement are critical.
What maintenance is required for chemical transfer pumps with meters?
Regular maintenance includes mechanical seal inspection and replacement, flow meter calibration verification, impeller and volute inspection for wear or corrosion, bearing lubrication, alignment checks, and system performance monitoring. Chemitek provides comprehensive maintenance protocols, spare parts availability, and AMC services to ensure optimal performance and extended operational life.
