Stepper motor-driven diaphragm dosing pump NXP-M and NXP-P Operating instructions 4.4 Function description 4.3.3 Control element of the NXP-M Dosing pumps are positive displacement pumps. They are used if precisely defined delivery of a medium is necessary. A constant volume per stroke or time is delivered.
Stepper motor-driven diaphragm dosing pump NXP-M and NXP-P Operating instructions 4.6 Conveying characteristics The design of the dosing pump enables it to perform the pressure and suction stroke at different speeds. For low supply rates, for example, the dosing pump performs the suction stroke at the maximum speed and adjusts the speed of the pressure stroke to match the desired supply rate. This produces a constant supply stream, which gives you a low-pulsation, smooth dosing.

Stepper motor-driven diaphragm dosing pump NXP-M and NXP-P Operating instructions 8.7.8 Dosing of suspensions When dosing suspensions, the dosing head must be rinsed regularly to prevent depositing. To do this, you install a feed line for the rinsing medium (water) in the suction side installation.
Install an emergency stop switch or integrate the dosing pump into the plant safety concept. The dosing pump is supplied with conductive rubber bands installed in the connection ports 1 (NXP-M) or 1 and 3 (NXP-P). The conductive rubber bands conduct electricity and ensure that the contacts in the NOTE connection sockets remain closed when no cables are connected.
