Preamble

ProMinent

Pneumados is a pneumatically-operated metering pump.
In contrast to solenoid-driven metering pumps, the metering stroke of this pump is effected by a
pneumatically actuated diaphragm, the suction stroke by spring force.
The delivery capacity can be varied via the stroke frequency and the stroke length setting.
The external electrically-pneumatically or pneumatically activated compressed air valves facilitate
a setting of up to 180 metering strokes per minute.
The stroke length and thus the stroke volume can be set between 10 and 100%.
Typical areas of application are:
• Feeding stuff treatment -
Metering and spraying of feeding stuff with flavouring agents
• Painting plants -
Metering of coagulants
• Greenhouses -
For metering of fertilisers and minerals compounds
• Car wash -
Metering of cleaning agents, shampoo, brighteners, wax, drying agents as well as for the
treatment of recycling water via metering of flocculants, pH adjusters, defoaming agents,
and emulsion breakers
• in all plants with central control (e.g. PLC) and compressed air supply
