Meeting the performance criteria of API675, the Hydra-Cell pump offers linear, repeatable, accurate steady flow.
The compact Hydra-Cell gives the advantages of large traditional hydraulic diaphragm pumps, but at a fraction of the initial cost, spare parts costs and energy costs.
For example, at a given flow and pressure, a traditional pump with a 15kW motor can be replaced with a Hydra-Cell pump with 5kW.
Hydra-Cell’s unique multiple diaphragm head design means that:
- Pulsation dampers may not be required. See graph comparing pulsation of a typical hydraulic diaphragm metering pump with that of the Hydra-Cell pump.
- For equivalent flow/pressure performance, the physical size of a Hydra-Cell pump is very much smaller than that of the more massively constructed typical traditional metering pump. (See comparison.) The Hydra-Cell’s compact design not only gives it a smaller footprint, but also reduces life-cycle costs.
Flow rate is near constant regardless of variations in system pressure.
Hydra-Cell’s unique check valve design allows it to handle particles, including slurries and any crystals which may form in the liquid.
Meets and exceeds the perfomance characteristics of API 675.
- Steady state accuracy +/- 1%
- Repeatability +/- 3%
- Linearity +/- 3%
Wide choice of liquid end materials giving a cost effective solution.
Flow rate is varied by speed control offering turndown ratios of 10 to 1 or better
