Description

An engineered diaphragm metering skid for accurate chemical feed where corrosion resistance, leakage control and repeatable positive-displacement dosing are important — the diaphragm separates the process liquid from the mechanical drive.

Typical media

  • Acids and alkalis
  • Sodium hypochlorite
  • Antiscalants
  • Coagulants and flocculants
  • Corrosion inhibitors
  • Biocides
  • Neutralizing chemicals
  • Methanol and selected additives
  • Boiler-water and cooling-water chemicals
  • Specialty reagents

Design

Key features

  • Mechanically or hydraulically actuated diaphragm pumps
  • Single, 1W+1S, 2W+1S or multi-line configuration
  • Calibration column
  • Suction and/or discharge pulsation dampener
  • Back-pressure valve
  • Mechanical relief valve
  • Pressure gauge and transmitter
  • Optional flowmeter or flow-verification device
  • Injection check valve
  • Stroke and/or speed control
  • Double-diaphragm leak detection option
  • Metallic or non-metallic wetted materials
  • PLC/HMI and remote-system interface

Engineering approach

  • Chemical concentration and compatibility
  • Minimum and maximum dosing rate
  • Suction pressure and source-tank level
  • Process backpressure
  • Fluid vapor pressure and gas-release tendency
  • Required accuracy and turndown
  • Diaphragm and valve material
  • Pulsation and flowmeter stability
  • Safe relief routing and calibration procedure
  • The selected operating range should avoid excessively low stroke settings where metering accuracy and check-valve performance may deteriorate

Advantages

  • Accurate and repeatable chemical metering
  • Process liquid separated from drive mechanism
  • Broad metallic and non-metallic material options
  • Suitable for corrosive and hazardous chemicals
  • Calibration and flow-verification capability
  • Double-diaphragm leak-detection option
  • Good ratio and batch-control performance
  • Compact duty/standby arrangement

Safety philosophy

Chemical dosing safety philosophy

  • Source tank level healthy
  • Pump available and selected
  • Injection route established
  • Discharge pressure within range
  • Flow verification healthy where provided
  • Diaphragm leak detector healthy
  • Relief path available
  • ESD chain healthy
  • Local/remote mode confirmed
  • Loss of a critical permissive can stop the affected dosing line and alarm the plant control system
