Chemical Transfer Pump

O er iew
The chemical transfer pump is used to transfer
chemical to the main tank, in place of the venturi
chemical probe. Combined with a S
11 flow meter, its an accurate way of measuring
chemical being transferred into the main tank.
The chemical transfer pumps are designed for
maximum practical corrosion protection with a
wide range of thin liquids at low pH. However,
chemical compatibility should always be assessed
first between li uids pumped and the pumps wetted
parts before using.
WARNING: Do not use the pump to transfer
flammable petroleum products.
