Complete process control starts with the pump
SEEPEX ALPHA Systems are turnkey skid-mounted chemical dosing units whose use of
progressive cavity pumps gives them unique advantages over traditional solutions
he environmental industry assumes that
chemical metering pumps must always
be subject to heavy monitoring, frequent
parts replacement, and ultimate disposal
on a regular basis. Pumps are expected
to pulsate, allowing a greater opportunity
for unstable flow as operators are forced
to over- or under-feed chemicals. All this
causes unplanned variances, water quality
issues, and increased cost and downtime.
Yet it doesn't need to be this way.
SEEPEX, the leading global manufacturer
of progressive cavity pumps, has released
SEEPEX ALPHA Systems, a market-driven
solution for chemical metering. SEEPEX
ALPHA Systems enable complete process
control because they are equipped with
self-priming NSF/ANSI 61-certified SEEPEX
progressive cavity dosing pumps.
The unique design of a progressive cavity
pump offers several advantages compared
to conventional chemical metering
pumps due to the simple pumping principle.
A single helical metal rotor turns inside
a double helical elastomer stator, forming
T
compression-fit sealed, uniform cavities
that progress from suction to discharge.
The sealing aids process control because
the flowrate is proportional to motor speed.
This pumping characteristic provides constant,
precise, repeatable metering with
minimal pulsations and no vapor lock. Slip
is minimized even when fluid temperature,
viscosity, or discharge pressure fluctuates.
SEEPEX ALPHA Systems are easily integrated
into a variety of water and wastewater
chemical metering applications like
disinfection, pH control, flocculation, and
the removal of contaminants like iron, nitrogen
and heavy metals. These plug-and-play
skids minimize the time and cost associated
with engineering, procuring, assembling,
and installing flow control systems. SEEPEX
ALPHA Systems can be adapted to any layout
and are available in simplex, duplex, or
triplex pump configurations for floor or wall
mounting. They are delivered complete with
user-customized color display touchscreen
controls and all necessary components for
chemical metering in a single unit. SEEPEX
Progressive cavity pumps ensure
reliable, pulsation-free dosing
ALPHA Systems handle pressure ratings up
to 175 PSI and flowrates of 0.1-350 GPH.
Turndown can exceed 2,000:1. All wetted
components are corrosion-resistant.
