Overview
Hydra-Cell MT8 Series pumps feature multiple diaphragms to minimize pulsations, offering virtually pulse-free operation and eliminating the need for expensive pulsation dampeners. The pumps are designed to handle a variety of processing liquids at low flow rates and high pressures, exceeding API 675 performance standards for steady-state accuracy (±1%), linearity (±3%) and repeatability (±3%). Electronic flow control increases accuracy and reliability (also available with a manual, variable speed gearbox for use in hazardous areas).
A replenishment valve system in every piston ensures optimum actuating oil on every stroke for continuous accuracy and also protects the pump from damage in the event of a blocked suction line. Hydraulically-actuated, balanced diaphragms provide superior performance across the entire pressure range.
A “duplexing” option allows two MT8 pumps to run at the same flow rate with only one gearbox and one motor. This doubles capacity with a smaller footprint and lower investment cost than conventional metering pumps. Two different chemicals can be metered in a precise 1:1 ratio.
