The environmental industry assumes that chemical metering pumps must always be subject to heavy monitoring, frequent parts replacement and disposal on a regular basis. Pumps are expected to pulsate, allowing a greater opportunity for unstable flow as operators are forced to overfeed or underfeed chemicals in their process. These practices cause unplanned variances, water quality issues, and increased cost and downtime.
SEEPEX — a leading global manufacturer of progressive cavity pumps with decades of experience engineering systems and controls — has released SEEPEX BRAVO Chemical Metering Systems, a market-driven chemical metering process control solution.
Complete process control is possible with BRAVO because systems are equipped with self-priming, NSF/ANSI 61-certified SEEPEX progressive cavity metering pumps. Progressive cavity pumps offer several advantages compared to conventional chemical metering pumps due to accurate, repeatable, low-shear metering with laminar flow, minimal pulsations and no vapor lock.
Pulsation dampeners can be eliminated and chemical consumption is reduced. Slip is minimized even when fluid temperature, viscosity or discharge pressure fluctuates. Progressive cavity pumps also wear predictably, so there is no risk of catastrophic failure.
Customizable Configurations
BRAVO is an integrated, modular and scalable solution used in a variety of industries for disinfection, pH control, flocculation, corrosion inhibitors, oxygen scavengers and containment elimination. These plug-and-play packaged skids minimize time and cost associated with engineering, procuring, assembling and installing flow-control systems.
BRAVO can be adapted to any layout and is available in simplex, duplex or triplex pump configurations for floor or wall mounting. BRAVO is offered with user-customized, color display, touch-screen advanced process controls and handles pressure ratings up to 175 psi and flow rate capabilities from 0.1 gph up to 250 gph.
SEEPEX Inc. is an ISO 9001-2008 certified manufacturer and a leading international supplier of progressive cavity pumps, systems, accessories and services. SEEPEX takes a consultative approach to offering innovative products and customized solutions for fluids handling and processing applications in nearly every industry. For more information:
