Product Description
Pulsatron Series X Explosion Proof Pump
The Pulsatron Series X explosion proof pump provides accurate chemical dosing in hazardous industrial environments. Moreover, it combines certified hazardous-location protection with proven Pulsafeeder diaphragm metering technology.
The integrated explosion-proof construction simplifies installation. Therefore, a separate protective enclosure may not be required in many applications.
Additionally, the pump supports safe chemical injection in demanding UAE industrial facilities. These include oil and gas, petrochemical, water treatment and chemical processing plants.
Explosion-Proof Chemical Dosing for Hazardous Areas
Flammable gases, vapours and combustible dust can create serious operational risks. Therefore, equipment installed in these areas must meet the required hazardous-location classification.
The Pulsatron Series X carries comprehensive ratings for gas, vapour and dust environments. Moreover, its rugged aluminium enclosure helps contain internal electrical events.
As a result, the pump helps protect personnel, nearby equipment and production processes.
Pulsatron Series X Hazardous-Location Ratings
- Class I, Division 1, Groups C and D, T5: Flammable gases and vapours
- Class I, Zone 1, Group IIB T5: International hazardous gas classification
- Class II, Division 1, Group E: Combustible metal dust
- Class II, Division 2, Groups F and G: Carbonaceous and non-conductive dust
- Class II, Zone 20, Group IIIC: International combustible dust classification
However, the required classification may differ between projects. Therefore, always confirm it with the project consultant or site safety engineer.
Key Benefits of the Pulsatron Series X
The Pulsatron X hazardous-location pump offers several operational advantages:
- Integrated explosion-proof pump and control design
- Accurate dosing within ±2% of maximum capacity
- Flow capacities from 4.9 to 94.6 litres per hour
- Maximum operating pressures from 2 to 21 bar
- Wide 100:1 turndown ratio
- Manual stroke-rate adjustment
- Manual stroke-length adjustment
- Optional 4–20 mA automatic control
- Optional external pacing with stop function
- Guided ball check valves for reliable priming
- Corrosion-resistant aluminium housing
- Multiple chemical-resistant wetted materials
- Single-phase 115 VAC or 230 VAC power options
Moreover, these features provide flexibility across different chemical dosing systems. As a result, the pump can support both simple and automated processes.
Accurate and Reliable Chemical Metering
The Pulsatron Series X uses solenoid-driven diaphragm technology. Specifically, this positive-displacement design delivers a controlled chemical volume during every stroke.
Operators can adjust both the stroke rate and stroke length. Therefore, they can control the chemical feed rate more precisely.
In addition, guided ball check valves support dependable priming. They also help reduce backflow during operation.
The pump delivers dosing accuracy within ±2% of maximum capacity. Consequently, it can reduce chemical waste and improve process consistency.
Moreover, accurate dosing helps protect downstream equipment. It may also reduce maintenance and chemical consumption.
Flow and Pressure Performance
The Pulsatron X range includes five models for different flow and pressure requirements.
Available performance ranges include:
- Flow: 4.9 to 94.6 litres per hour
- Daily capacity: 31 to 600 gallons per day
- Pressure: 2 to 21 bar
- Pressure in PSI: 30 to 300 PSI
- Turndown ratio: 100:1
Therefore, users can select a model for low-flow or higher-capacity applications.
However, the correct model depends on several operating conditions. These include flow, discharge pressure, temperature and chemical properties.
Chemical-Resistant Material Options
Different chemicals require different wetted materials. Therefore, the Pulsatron X offers several pump-head and valve material combinations.
Available Pump-Head Materials
- Glass-filled polypropylene
- PVC
- PVDF
- 316 stainless steel
Available Valve-Ball Materials
- Ceramic
- PTFE
- 316 stainless steel
- Alloy C
In addition, seat and O-ring options include PTFE, CSPE and Viton. The diaphragm also uses a PTFE-faced and CSPE-backed construction.
As a result, the pump can handle a wide range of industrial chemicals.
However, chemical concentration and temperature can affect compatibility. Therefore, compatibility must be checked before selecting the final configuration.
