LITERATURESHOWCASE NEW Chlorination System Fluid Metering Inc. Accurately meter metering liquid sodium hypochlorite presents a unique challenge because of the fluid’s tendency to out-g out-gas. The new Chloritrol™ System is a unique valvele duplex pump design. The first valveless pump head is high pressure and injects the sodium hypochlorite directly into the water main. The second pump head functions to remove out-gas bubbles from the inlet side of the high-pressure pump head. The Chloritrol™ has been field tested in very demanding applications, and demonstrated that it exceeds performance expectations. It is also noted that the size of the system, as well as energy consumption, is a fraction of that of conventional injection pumps.
