This is the higher output version of the Select-380. It can be a useful machine for dosing when water flows are very large in irrigation systems.
As long as we know how many pulses we get per litre (or gallon) we can connect to any water meter. We generally supply turbine flow sensors with our dosers as these are lighter for transport and are generally more accurate at low flows.
If we used one large pump tube for all dosing ratios, at very fine ratios and very low water flows it might be several minutes before the doser was able to turn to inject product. Although this would still be accurate overall, folks prefer to see the doser operating more frequently with a smaller tube fitted.
Let us know. We can send you a new Eprom computer chip containing all of the normal ratios plus the one you need.
There are several reasons. With the dosed product kept inside the pump tube, even strongly corrosive liquids don't harm the pump, and there are no product residues in the pump to contaminate the dosed product. A win win.
Servicing of both diaphragm pumps and the Dosatron type doser can be fiddly and time consuming. Changing a pump tube in the Select doser takes around 23 seconds. This effectively services the doser.
The Select doser does not suffer from air locks. a huge advantage when dosing products that can generate gas bubbles.
It all depends on four things - the water line pressure that you are dosing into, the product being dosed, the condition of the rollers and the number of times the rotor squeezes the tube.
Choosing the correct ratio to dose the original concentrated product will save the tube being worn by pumping excess water from a stock solution. And - change the pump tube regularly to avoid it splitting. Leaked product can damage the rollers.
Almost anything. If you try to pump highly concentrated formic acid you will be out of luck. Nothing can withstand that!
Diaphragm pumps can certainly pump at a higher pressure than a Select doser, but that is pretty much the only advantage.
99% of the time there is a low pressure point on a water line to dose into. Having actual dosing ratios (and flow data) shown on-screen on a Select doser, having superb accuracy of dosing and not suffering from airlocks all count towards the Select doser being a superior choice.
