Pulse pump for high pressure chemicals
Cat Pumps has developed the 6350 Pulse Pump, which permits chemical application at system pressures up to 3000 psi. The 6350 Pulse Pump is designed to be mounted onto the pump head in the centre inlet valve port of a high-pressure pump. Several adapters can join the Pulse Pump to the company's established high pressure pump models, including the 3FR and 3CP, 5FR and 5CP, 7FR and 7CP and 15 FR pumps.
Cat Pumps says that the Pulse Pump can deliver chemical at high pressures, up to 3000 psi, has a stainless steel, corrosion resistant construction, an easy, compact direct mount onto pump and has an easy to adjust chemical draw for the applicationCat Pumps say
Once the Pulse Pump is mounted onto the centre inlet port of the high-pressure pump, it is activated with each stroke of the primary pump. The inlet line to the Pulse Pump contains a prime bulb to start the chemical draw into the Pulse Pump. The chemical exits the Pulse pump through the high-pressure line and is delivered into the high-pressure discharge line of the primary pump after the Pressure Unloader Valve. The high-pressure pump sees no chemical, the company says.
