Frequently asked questions
Common questions about CHEM-TECH from 3G Electric.
What types of CHEM-TECH metering pumps does 3G Electric supply?
3G Electric supplies CHEM-TECH standard-duty motor-driven diaphragm metering pumps and peristaltic chemical metering pumps. Diaphragm models include electric motor-driven units with PVC heads, ceramic internals, and 10:1 turndown ratios. Peristaltic models are available in fixed-flow and variable-flow configurations, with neoprene or Norprene tubing and flow rates from 15 to 55 gpd. Replacement tube kits for peristaltic pumps are also stocked.
What materials are used in CHEM-TECH diaphragm pump wetted parts?
CHEM-TECH diaphragm pumps use wetted materials that include CSPE (chlorosulfonated polyethylene), PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene), and Viton™ fluoroelastomer. The pump head is PVC, and internal check valves and ball seats are ceramic. These materials provide chemical resistance for a range of corrosive fluids, though specific compatibility should be verified for each application.
What is the reproducibility specification of CHEM-TECH metering pumps?
CHEM-TECH diaphragm metering pumps have a reproducibility rating of ±2.0% or ±3.0%, depending on the model. Peristaltic pumps are rated at ±2.0% reproducibility. These figures indicate the pump's ability to deliver consistent flow rates under steady operating conditions, which is important for precise chemical dosing.
Are replacement tube kits available for CHEM-TECH peristaltic pumps?
Yes, 3G Electric stocks CHEM-TECH replacement tube kits for peristaltic pumps. These kits are made of Norprene tubing with 1/4-inch connection sizes and are compatible with specific XP-series pump models, such as XP080LFLX and XP030LAHXG19. The kits allow for field replacement of worn tubing to maintain flow accuracy.
What power options are available for CHEM-TECH metering pumps?
CHEM-TECH metering pumps are available with 115V AC single-phase motors (1/60 hp to 1/4 hp) or 115/230V AC dual-voltage motors (1/60 hp). The diaphragm pumps use electric motor drives, while peristaltic pumps also use AC motors. Voltage selection should match the site's electrical supply.
