Dissolving Systems for Water and Wastewater Treatment Processes utilizing Model W-105 Volumetric Feeders
Overview
Acrison’s heavy-duty Model W-105 Series Volumetric Feeders feature a Dissimilar Speed, Double Concentric Auger Metering Mechanism designed to accurately and reliably meter a wide variety of Dry Chemicals commonly used in water and wastewater treatment applications. This highly effective and versatile Metering Mechanism consists of a large “Conditioning Auger” or Intromitter, concentrically mounted around a smaller “Metering Auger”, independently driven at dissimilar speeds in a “fixed proportion” to each other by a single variable speed gearmotor drive. Model W-105 Series of Feeders are supplied as part of an “equipment package” to satisfy the dry chemical metering requirements associated with a broad variety of water treatment processes.
Features/Benefits
