Dosing Pumps

The dosing pump is a high-precision device designed to inject the exact amount of chemical product into the pool water. What makes this type of pump so attractive for water maintenance and care is its millimetre-precise ability to measure and supply the chemical.

The dosing pump is, as its name suggests, a pump that injects a liquid product into other fluids. Its incredible technological design makes it a widely used machine in many diverse industries, as it offers very high effectiveness in administering the exact and appropriate amount.

In the field of pools, its function is to dose disinfectant or pH regulator products. It boasts the ability to adjust the flow rate in a straight line on the graph relating pressure and flow. As the pressure increases in the pipe or system where the chemical is injected, the pump must be able to supply the indicated flow amount. Unlike centrifugal pumps, which distribute more substance under lower pressure conditions, making them an inaccurate type of machinery.

Therefore, the dosing pump must allow adjustment of the supplied flow rate to achieve maximum precision when administering the chemical. This way, even if the pressure varies, the flow remains constant.

To be completely effective and safe to handle, it must be built leak-proof. When dealing with chemical products, it is crucial that there are no product losses that could endanger people or the surrounding environment. In its innovative design, there are 3 qualities that the dosing pump must meet to guarantee its effectiveness:

Peristaltic Pump

This type of pump does not incorporate valves, making them very useful for supplying solid or highly viscous products. They have a simple assembly and perform dosing in a very hygienic manner. When injecting chlorine or another disinfectant product, they do not contaminate it thanks to their aseptic and safe handling. They are great purchase options when you want to maximise the effectiveness of certain fluids and avoid contaminating them during treatment. They also work with corrosive acids and other products containing air.

Diaphragm Pumps

With positive displacement, diaphragm pumps generate pressure by pushing elastic walls called diaphragms. The movement of the diaphragms creates suction and propulsion of the product to be dosed through the valves.

They are a very economical type of pump. All pumps in this category share the same technology in performing their function but can differ in their technical characteristics.
