The MT8 triplex metering pump (photo) is the newest model in the Hydra-Cell product line. The MT8 is designed to handle a wide range of processing fluids at low flowrates and features a multiple-diaphragm design to provide virtually pulse-free flow without the need for pulsation dampeners. It is said to exceed API 675 performance standards for steady-state accuracy (±1%), linearity (±3%) and repeatability (±3%), according to the manufacturer. Flow capacity for the MT8 ranges from 0.06 to 8.0 gal/h with discharge pressure ratings up to 3,500 psi (241 bars), depending on flow requirements. A built-in pressure-relief valve and replenishment valve system protect the pump in the event of blocked suction. Booth 605 — Wanner Engineering Inc., Minneapolis, Minn.
