Reducing the cost of metering
Published: 31 May, 2018
Hydra-Cell pumps are claimed to offer the most economical solution for precision metering and dosing thanks to their simple, clever design with multiple hydraulically balanced diaphragms in a single pump head.
Unlike typical API 675 diaphragm pumps, which are big, slow moving and deliver a large volume on each stroke, Hydra-Cell pumps work at high speed, delivering a small volume from each cell but at high frequency, which is why the pumps can be physically smaller in relation to flow capability and consequently less expensive to acquire and operate.
Hydra-Cell’s multiple diaphragms work in sequence to produce a virtually pulseless liquid flow, removing the need for pulsation dampeners in most installations, saving further installation and maintenance costs. Pipe strain and system leaks are also reduced.

Engineers at WANNER report they have designed a high flow rate skid that incorporates three of the company’s Hydra-Cell G35 pumps operating in parallel.
WANNER INTERNATIONAL says its exclusive new "Control Freak" electronic controller provides motor speed control for Hydra-Cell Metering Solutions pumps (or Hydra-Cell bare shaft pumps in metering applications) and is able to control multiple pumps with Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs) from a single point and because motor speed is directly proportionate to flow rate in a Hydra-Cell pump, high accuracy can be achieved through the use of VFDs.
When a major producer of heavy-duty industrial cleaning machines was commissioned to design and manufacture a high-pressure cleaner/de-scaler for an agricultural equipment manufacturer, it turned immediately to HYDRA-CELL seal-less pumps.
