A metering pump is a very useful tool in irrigation or water treatment systems, but there are several types of them. In this article we tell you which ones you will find in our catalog and we give you some more information about these accessories that you will be grateful to know.
What exactly are metering pumps?
These are tools that serve to supply liquids in a certain time and volume that, of course, we control. The pumps allow us to adjust the supply to the needs of our orchard, turning it into an autonomous system and allowing us to have better results without much effort on our part.
In these pumps you can integrate fertilizers or other chemicals but if that is our intention we must be very careful when choosing the materials they are made of to obtain a reliable and long-lasting solution. The ideal materials and for which it is convenient to bet are PVC or polyethylene.
The pumps must always allow a flow adjustment and this must be linear. They are, or must be, reproducible (ability to offer the same result in measurements made under the same conditions over time), repetitive in terms of measurements made by an operator in a short period of time for the same conditions; and precise in relation to the volume they displace.
The flow rate offered must always be the same even if the pressure in the system or pipe where the chemical is injected varies. It must also be leak-proof and secure. Only when all these characteristics are combined can we speak of quality pumps.
Types of dosing pumps
In our catalog you will find two types of dosing pumps: piston and electromagnetic.
Piston dosing pumps
With the operation of this pump a cylinder equipped with an inlet and an outlet moves. In the first cycle the liquid is absorbed by the inlet and expelled in the second by the outlet.
In Mundoriego you will find piston metering pumps three-phase and many other models. Get to know them all and contact us if you have any questions.
Electromagnetic dosing pumps
They are also known as solenoid type pumps and are often used for liquid delivery that requires more advanced control. The regulation of this type of pumps can be done in a ratio of 10:1, 100:1 and in some cases 1000:1. It usually costs a little more than the motor pump but allows a more exhaustive control, which is why it is one of the most demanded on the market.
In our catalog you will find various electromagnetic dosing pump models: single-phase, three-phase, etc. Explore all the options you have at your disposal and do not hesitate to ask if you have any questions.
