Metering Pump Hydraulics

What is a Metering Pump? Hydraulic Institute Definition:
“A controlled volume pump (also called a “metering”, “proportioning” or “chemical injection pump”) is a reciprocating power pump used to accurately displace a predetermined volume of liquid in a specified time period and is driven by power from an outside source applied to the pump mechanism. It includes a mechanism for varying the effective plunger, piston or diaphragm displacement.” Some Pump Manufacturers Add: “It includes a mechanism for varying the effective frequency of displacements.”

Reciprocating Diaphragm Metering Pump Stroke Cycle
Suction Stroke Begins: discharge valve closes, suction valve opens, chamber fills. Suction Stroke Complete. Fluid chamber is full. Discharge Stroke Begins: discharge valve opens, suction valve closes Discharge Stroke Complete. Fluid in chamber is displaced.

Control of Reciprocating Metering Pump Output
H O A Variable Speed Drive adjusts frequency of strokes. % Speed Stroke length knob (or stroke positioning motor) adjusts displacement per stroke.

Metering Pump Output Adjustments
Variable Frequency Capacity per stroke known by calibration Total output can be calculated easily (capacity/stroke X freq.) Total output linear with frequency (50% freq. = 50% output) May require pulsation dampener or static mixer to prevent slugs at low frequency

Metering Pump Output Adjustments
Variable Stroke Length Capacity per stroke unknown, calibrate at constant frequency Total output not linear with stroke length e.g. upper and lower limits may not be linear Output therefore not linear with analog control signal Repeatability poor below 20% stroke length Ensures constant chemical addition - no delay

Turndown Ratio Ratio of maximum output to minimum output within rated repeatability specifications (e.g. max output = 100%, min. repeatable output = 10%, turndown ratio = 10:1). H O A Variable Speed Drive Turndown Ratio: 10:1 % Speed Multiplied by: Stroke Length Positioner Turndown Ratio: 10:1 Total Turndown Ratio: 100:1

What’s all this?

Metering Pump System Hydraulics and Application of Accessories
The metering pump system design, the fluid pumped, and the accessories installed all play a vital role in system safety, repeatability and reliability. Key Concept: Metering Pump System

Best Practices

Suction Head Negative Suction Head (suction lift)
Positive Suction Head (flooded suction)

Suction Lift Atmospheric pressure always pushes down on any fluid surface. When the pump diaphragm creates a negative pressure in the pump head, atmospheric pressure forces fluid up the suction tube to fill the cavity. Atmospheric pressure at 500 feet above sea level = 14.5 psia = 1 bar = 34 feet of water If the pump pulled a perfect vacuum, the maximum suction lift possible on earth, pumping water, is 34 feet. 14.5 psia

Suction Lift What happens if the tank is not vented (open to atmosphere)? 14.5 psia 14.5 psia 14.5 psia

Specific Gravity Specific Gravity is the fluid’s density in relation to the density of water (S.G. 1.0). For example: Sulfuric acid density = lbs/gal Therefore: Water density = lbs/gal S.G. = 1.84 Ammonia density = lbs/gal Therefore Water density = lbs/gal S.G. = 0.63 Because atmospheric pressure forces fluid into the pump head during the suction stroke, if the fluid has a specific gravity greater than 1.0, the suction lift ability will be reduced. Specific gravity is independent of viscosity, and does not impact pump capacity, only suction lift capability.

Specific Gravity Impact on Suction Lift
Actual Suction Lift = Rated Suction Lift (water) / S.G. Rated Suction Lift for VAMb04120 = 6.6 feet Application: Chromic Acid (1.4 SG) Actual Suction Lift = 6.6 / 1.4 = 4.7’

Viscosity Viscosity is a measure of a fluid’s resistance to flow.
Viscosities greater than that of water increase friction loss and result in reduced pump capacity. When selecting a pump for viscous fluids: Oversize the pump Put springs in the valves to help seat the balls Use high viscosity solenoid pumps Reduce stroking rate to minimum possible Keep stroke length as great as possible Provide flooded suction with oversized suction line

Vapor Pressure Matter exist as solids, liquids or gasses. The state of matter depends on the compound itself, the pressure around it, and the temperature. The Vapor Pressure of any fluid relates to the pressure and temperature at which it flashes from a liquid phase to a gas phase. It is defined as the pressure exerted when a liquid is in equilibrium with its own vapor. The higher the vapor pressure, the more likely the fluid will vaporize on the suction side of a pump during the suction stroke, causing cavitation.

Chemical Metering System Accessories
REMEMBER: A metering pump alone does not provide safe, repeatable and reliable chemical metering! Only a complete metering system, including the metering pump and accessories, can provide safety, repeatability, and long term reliability of the pump system. Benefits provided by the accessories... Accessory Safety Repeatability Reliability Foot valve Keeps prime Prevents cavitation Backpressure Valve Provides pressure Anti-Siphon Valve Prevents siphoning Pressure Relief Valve Prevents bursting Prevents overpressure Pulsation Dampener Minimizes slugs Prevents pressure surge Pressure Gauge Prevents overpressure Show actual pressure Injection Valve Prevents backflow Provides pressure

Prevents over-pressurizing pump and piping system.
Pressure Relief Valve Prevents over-pressurizing pump and piping system. “A safety device” Note: The internal pressure relief valve does not protect the system Pressure Adjusting Nut Diaphragm Spring Diaphragm Hub

Pressure Relief Options - Flooded Suction
Pressure Relief may discharge back to tank, but where tank is distant from pump, relief back to suction line is common. 3-port PRV 2-Port BPV on Tee

Pressure Relief Options - Suction Lift
Two port back-pressure valve off of a tee on the discharge line Three port in-line pressure relief valve discharges to tank through relief port

Provides backpressure to improve repeatability.
Backpressure Valve Provides backpressure to improve repeatability. Prevents siphoning when suction head exceeds discharge head. Pressure Adjusting Nut Spring Diaphragm Diaphragm Hub

Backpressure Valve The injection quill can create a venturi effect in a flowing pipe, developing a vacuum. This can draw chemical through the system even if the pump is stopped. The anti-siphon (backpressure) valve prevents the vacuum from causing chemical to be drawn into water line.

Backpressure Valve The backpressure valve also prevents fluid from simply free-flowing through the system when the suction port is higher than the point of discharge.

Backpressure Valve When discharging into a vacuum line, use two backpressure valves to ensure maximum protection against siphoning. Regulatory agencies may require use of two anti-siphon valves in certain applications such as adding fluoride to drinking water. The backpressure created by the two valves (and the injection valve) is not additive. Whichever valve is set at the highest pressure will determine the system pressure at the pump.

Multifunction Valve An inexpensive device combining both a pressure relief and backpressure valve. Mounted directly on the liquid end of the pump. Multifunction: backpressure, antisiphon, pressure relief, priming and draining the discharge line

Pulsation Dampener In a reciprocating pump system, the entire fluid column between the pump and injection point stops flowing at each suction stroke and is forced to flow at each discharge stroke. Overcoming inertia creates large momentary pressure spikes on the pump system.

Pulsation Dampener AIR FLUID A pulsation dampener minimizes the pressure spikes by using compressed air to absorb the forces due to momentum of the fluid inertia. The flow losses are called acceleration/deceleration forces.

Pulsation Dampener Principle of Operation: Air is compressible, fluid is not. Size dampener volume to 26 times fluid displacement per stroke, or consult piping program. Charge dampener air pressure to 90% of fluid pressure. You must have backpressure for dampener to be effective. Locate dampener as close to pump as possible, preferably as shown.

Foot Valve The foot valve is used in a suction lift application to prevent loss of prime when the pump is stopped, and to improve repeatability by preventing cavitation. Suction Tube Tube Fitting Check Ball Ball Check Seat 30 mesh screen keeps solids out Ceramic weight keeps suction line straight, ports let fluid in.

Injection Valve Injection quill puts chemical into flow for good mixing NPT thread to mount into pipe Valve Spring provides backpressure, ensures ball seating. Check Ball Ball Check Seat Tube Fitting Discharge Tubing from Pump

Calibration Column Provide a verification of the flow rate of the chemical feed pump Place on suction side Size for minimum 30 sec. Marked in gallons or milliliters

Typical Accessory Installation (Suction Lift)
Injection Valve prevents backflow from pipe Backpressure/Antisiphon valve provides backpressure for repeatability, prevents siphoning Pressure gauge allows setting valve pressures Pulsation dampener reduces head loss, pulsation Pressure relief valve protects system components Foot valve/strainer prevents loss of prime, plugging by solids

Pump Identcodes and Functions
Gamma/L (GALa) Options

First selection Default Tells us this is the Gamma/L, version ‘a’
Gamma/L is often referred to as “GALA”

“Pump Version” “Size” of the liquid end
Pressure and volume capabilities Note: first 2 digits refer to the pressure in BAR (1 BAR = 14.5 psi) Final digits are approximate volume in Liters per hour Clues to solenoid size = what liquid ends can be changed for this drive We can calculate Volume per stroke (shown in chart) Required to size Pulse dampener

Liquid end: Materials, Seal, Version
These 3 selections define the Liquid End Critical to follow notes in parentheses after options These selections are determined using the chemical resistance information from the “General Information” section of the catalog If you cannot find information on a chemical and the customer cannot determine what to use, ask someone who knows!

Connection What size tubing we intend to use with the pump
Refer to the technical data in chart above for typical tubing size for Liquid End 1000,1601,1602 can use ‘0’ (‘6’ on request) selection here, others should be ‘6’ unless previous digit (from previous slide) is a ‘4’ then you would also use a ‘0’ Where we show:1/4 x 3/16 or ½ x 3/8, the first is the outside dimension of the tubing (must be larger) and the second is the inside diameter of the tubing We can offer connector set to use “3/8” tubing (3/8 x ¼) Enter as a separate line item 1 connection per valve (remember foot and injection valves when you count these) Connector set to include 2 is part number: (PVT) It is important to know this because this is a common tubing size for our competitors and it helps us displace their products.

Labeling This is a default ‘0’ selection
The only time you might see this change is if an OEM requests their label be placed on the pump and they commit to a quantity order.

Electrical Connection
Determined by what the customer is supplying to the pump. ‘M’ or ‘N’ might be selected if the customer is getting power from a battery or possibly a solar source (be sure to follow notes in parentheses). Most common is ‘U’ Some early versions of Gamma/L used separate codes for 115 and 230 volt pumps. We would now cross these over to ‘U’.

Power cable Determined by what the user plans to power the pump with.
If previous selection is ‘U’, 115 or 230 can be used to power the pump by changing the cord or cutting off the plug and hard wiring As noted above the standard cord is 6 feet Longer power cords can be ordered as a separate line item with a note to install in pump 15 foot 115 volt is pn: 30 foot 115 volt is pn:

Relay = Output from pump (slide 1)
‘1’ and ‘3’ use the same board in the pump Each uses 3 wires (c) common, (NC) normally closed, (NO) normally open. With these 3 wires you get “both changes of state” with either relay option. ‘1’ energizes the board on power-up and maintains power to board until fault, then it “turns board off.” ‘3’ only “turns board on” when fault occurs Since ‘1’ is energized as soon as pump is powered up, this option will change states if fuse inside pump blows or if pump is unplugged. Because ‘1’ can “monitor power,” recommend this over the ‘3’

These options combine options ‘1’ and ‘3’ with a pacing relay A pacing relay gives 1 contact closure with each stroke of the pump The pacing relay can be used as a contact input to a second pump among other uses. With these 2 options you have the same board but now use 4 wires out from the pump Option ‘4’ has 2 wires “closed” until fault and 2 that “pace” or close with each stroke Option ‘5’ has 2 wires “open” until fault and 2 that “pace” or close with each stroke To determine which of these to use you need to know what signal the device you are sending to is looking for. If pump has no relay option you can add ‘1’ or ‘4’ in the field Kit to add ‘1’ PN: Kit to add ‘4’ PN:

These 3 options combine options from the previous 2 slides with an mA output. These use 4 wires out 2 for whichever relay you choose and the other 2 for the mA signal. The mA signal is a product of both Stroke Length and Stroke Frequency as shown in the formula to the above right.

Accessories These accessories include the foot and injection valves.
Follow notes to the right of the option for which pump gets the accessories. SS, TT, and High viscosity liquid ends do not get these

Control Variants (inputs to the pump)
These options are how we control the frequency or stroke rate of the pump. External is a pulsing contact: 1 input strokes the pump 1 time ‘Pulse Control’ allows us to change the ratio from 1:1 to what we need it to be (may be 1 in strokes the pump…5 times or 5 inputs stroke the pump 1 time) Analog is a 4 to 20 mA signal. 4 mA the pump stops and 20 mA the pump runs at max frequency; 180 strokes per minute (we can change this response unless ‘C’, ‘D’, or ‘E’ were chosen for the relay output). ‘P’ is special it is both input and output Remember a universal control cable to get the control signal into the pump – 6 feet – 15 feet – 30 feet

Access code Adds a level of security to protect the settings of the pump 2 codes give different levels of access Cannot lock-out the stroke length No cost adder for this option, so always include this if left up to you. If they don’t want to use it, they don’t have to set it. 1234 is the override code for this option if users number is lost

Last 2 options Always select ‘0’ for these last 2 items
