Seepex’s smart dosing pump (SDP) comprises a progressive cavity (PC) pump with an intelligent drive and associated controls.
This, says the company, combines the advantages of PC pump technology with enhanced control and monitoring. As a result, customers are able to input one parameter – the proportional flow ratio – which the pump monitors and adjusts automatically.
The SDP has an intelligent inverter drive which is programmed either locally via an HMI or centrally via a fieldbus interface. The pump can also be controlled via analogue/digital I/Os either locally or remotely by a PLC.
The flow rate, once set, is monitored and controlled entirely by the pump drive which adapts to variations in operating conditions to ensure accurate repeatable dosing of even the most viscous products, says the company.
