What Are Dosing Pumps?
Dosing pumps are devices used to supply specific fluids in precise amounts at a constant rate.
They are employed in various industrial and chemical processes to systematically introduce precise quantities of chemicals or additives. Typically, dosing pumps consist of pump bodies and control units. The pump bodies pump the fluid and dispense fixed quantities, while the control units regulate the pumps’ operation and adjust the required amounts and speeds. This allows for extremely precise fluid management.
There are different types of dosing pumps, including piston pumps, which operate by the reciprocating motion of pistons within cylinders; diaphragm pumps, which use flexible membranes called diaphragms to dispense fluids; and gear pumps, which use two gears to draw in fluids and exert pressure to dispense them.
