Makro/ 5 – The new, powerful dimension

01.08.2002

With the new Makro/ 5 Series, ProMinent has closed the gap in its range of high performance motor-driven metering pumps. As a competent provider, ProMinent now seamlessly covers all metering ranges, i.e. from only a few millimetre to 100,000 l/h at operating pressures of up to 4,000 bar.

The power unit of the Makro/ 5 HMH hydraulic diaphragm-type metering pump is generally designed as a double end pump and can be optionally equipped with one or two liquid ends. Retrofitting of the second liquid end is completely unproblematic.

The metering capacity as a single end pump is 6,000 l/h and 12,000 l/h in the double end version at 6 bar backpressure. This pump is available in the pressure stages 6, 10, 16 and 25 bar as well as with liquid ends made of PP, PVC, Teflon or stainless steel. A metering capacity of 1,000 l/h is achieved at 25 bar backpressure.

Up to six Makro/ 5 power units with one liquid end or three power units in double end version can be coupled to one station. The maximum metering capacity is 36,000 l/h at 6 bar and repeatability of ±1 %.

The modular design of the metering stations offers extensive scope for individual applications.

Reliability and safety of the Makro/ 5 HMH are operating characteristics that are achieved by modern technology such as patented multi-layer diaphragms, high diaphragm performance, integrated overload protection and so on.

Two further tried and tested motor-driven metering pumps round off the Makro/ 5 series. On the one hand, the mechanically displaced diaphragm-type metering pump Makro/ 5 HM with a maximum metering capacity per liquid end of 4,000 l/h at 4 bar backpressure and, on the other hand, the Makro/ 5 HK piston-type metering pump. It is used in the high pressure range of up to 320 bar and has a maximum metering capacity per liquid end of 6,000 l/h at 6 bar backpressure.

Chlorine Gas Systems: New Electric Safety Valve Makes the System Safer

13.12.2024 -

Chlorine gas plays a key role in the disinfection of drinking and industrial water. However, handling the chemical can pose considerable health risks – from irritation of the eyes to fatal pulmonary oedema. To further improve occupational safety during use, Lutz-Jesco has developed the VakuStop – a vacuum regulator for dosing systems that is equipped with an emergency stop function to prevent uncontrolled chlorine gas leaks directly at the chlorine gas tank in the event of an emergency.
