These systems are designed to handle precise dosing of a wide range of chemistries across industries including pharmaceutical, semiconductor, food and beverage, oil and gas, as well as traditional municipal markets—while ensuring complete compliance with environmental and safety standards.

Key Design Features

  • Simplex, duplex, or triplex pump configurations depending on dosing requirements
  • Leak detection and advanced containment options to meet safety and environmental standards, even when working with high-risk chemistries
  • A wide range of options for controls and instrumentation to suit various flow, precision, and accuracy requirements, ensuring seamless integration with existing facility controls
  • Reliable operation for critical applications under demanding industrial conditions

Pump & Instrumentation

  • Dosing pump options with a wide range of flow profiles, including single diaphragm metering pumps, AODD pumps, peristaltic pumps, gear pumps, motor-driven metering pumps, progressive cavity pumps, rotary lobe pumps, and other custom options
  • Flow monitoring options such as electromagnetic, ultrasonic, paddlewheel, or Coriolis flowmeters

Plumbing & Components

  • Options for PVC, CPVC, polyethylene, and polypropylene construction for common reagent chemistries
  • PVDF, stainless steel, Hastelloy-C, and additional alloys such as PTFE-coated or PFA-coated stainless steel are available for applications involving harsher chemistries or high temperatures
  • For applications with exothermic reactions, heat exchangers and cooling water flow control valves can be integrated to maintain desired operating temperatures
  • Pulsation dampeners ensure smooth reagent flow
  • Diaphragm and pressure regulation valves with automatic actuation options can be paired with pump controls for precise flow management

Automation

  • Custom-fabricated control panels with disconnect switches, pump motor starters, power supplies, and complete programming for fully functional systems
