Solenoid Dosing Pump 5 L/h 10 bar PTFE – OPTIMA A 5L/10B V-PTFE

Overview

The OPTIMA A 5L/10B V-PTFE is a PTFE dosing pump rated 5 L/h at 10 bar. It is the analogue OPTIMA A solenoid pump, but with PTFE seals throughout. In other words, the head set, the check valves and the suction and injection sets are all PTFE-sealed. Therefore it doses chemicals that attack Viton (FKM).

You set the dose rate on a front-panel potentiometer. In addition, an on/off button stops dosing without isolating the supply. An electronically controlled electromagnet drives a long-life PTFE diaphragm. As a result, there is no motor, gearbox or oil to maintain.

The pump mounts vertically at the tank or on the wall. Moreover, the IP65 body suits plant rooms, boiler houses and pool pump rooms. For chemicals that Viton tolerates, however, the standard OPTIMA A 5L/10B costs less.

Key features

• Adjustable stroke rate set with a front-panel potentiometer
• On/Off button
• Vertical-mounted design for easy and flexible installation and operation
• PVDF head set with high resistance to corrosive chemicals and an all-IP65 body
• Electronically controlled electromagnet with long-life PTFE (Teflon) diaphragm
• PTFE-sealed head set and valve sets (V-PTFE variant)

PTFE dosing pump 5 L/h — specifications

Flow and pressure are maximum values, and they depend on each other. Therefore read them as the matched pairs in the table.

Applications

This pump serves sodium hypochlorite and disinfectant dosing on potable and borehole water. In addition, it doses coagulant and flocculant on clarifiers and package plants. It also handles pH correction with acid or caustic, and inhibitor dosing on cooling towers and boilers. Finally, it suits antiscalant dosing ahead of reverse-osmosis membranes and pool chemical control.

Why buy the PTFE dosing pump 5 L/h from Hadron Group

Hadron Group has supplied water-treatment chemicals and dosing equipment from Pretoria since 1999. First, we size the pump for your chemical, dose rate and injection pressure. Then we supply the matching suction and injection sets and spares. Finally, we support installations across South Africa and the SADC region. Send us the chemical, the dose and the system pressure, and we will confirm the right model before you order.

Frequently asked questions

How do I order the PTFE dosing pump 5 L/h? Quote the model and the Hadron item code. In addition, tell us the chemical, the dose rate and the injection pressure, and we will confirm the accessories.

Which chemicals suit the V-PTFE build? The wetted parts are PVDF and PTFE only. Therefore it handles solvents, oxidisers and other chemicals that attack Viton (FKM). Tell us the chemical, concentration and temperature, and we will confirm compatibility before you order.

What is included? The pump ships with its suction and injection sets and hose. Mounting brackets, level switches and spare head sets, however, are sold separately — see the dosing range.

Can a water meter or controller drive it? No. The OPTIMA A is the analogue model, so you set the dose rate by hand. For pulse, 4–20 mA or pH/ORP control, however, choose a digital model from the dosing range.
