Mobile metering is easy with this battery-operated pump
Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Group
The latest member of the Qdos Series of chemical metering pumps are designed to provide accurate, linear and repeatable metering of fluids, even when pressure, viscosity and solids content vary. The latest addition to the Qdos family (photo) is designed for mobile and remote applications that can be powered by a 12–23-V d.c. power supply. The latest Qdos pump is designed for applications where a precise, closely controlled metering pump is required, but access to a grid power supply is not readily available or practical. Suitable for both remote static and mobile battery-powered applications, typical uses of the new 12–24-V d.c. version include remote water treatment and sampling, on-truck pumping operations, and more. For very remote applications, the self-contained pump is able to run from batteries that can be recharged via solar cells, other renewable energy sources or split charge relays. — Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Group, Wilmington, Mass.
