Peristaltic pumps manufacturer Watson-Marlow is now offering its 620 series pump for Sodium Hypochlorite, combining power and control for wastewater treatment applications. The 620 hypochlorite pump can run dry so off-gassing chemicals will not cause the pump to vapor lock, the company said.
By maintaining +/- 0.1% accuracy in hypo metering the pumps yield increased savings on chemical usage. Watson-Marlow claimed that with its extended performance, it can reliably deliver 50% more flow with one tube compared to other peristaltics.
The 620 reliably handles harsh chemicals in the water and wastewater treatment industry, including sodium hypochlorite, ferric chloride, sodium bisulfate, aluminum, fluoride, carbon and lime slurries, polymers, aqueous ammonia, potassium permanganate and caustic slurries.
With no valves or seals to clog, it requires minimal maintenance, resulting in reduced downtime, providing a cost-effective alternative to other pump technologies.
