Dosing Pumps

1:Drive unit, 2:Dosing head, 3:Diaphragm, 4:Microprocessor control, 5:Stepper motor, 6:Composite housing

  • Ground-breaking product concept
  • Modular product programme with 45 variants
  • Developed for GRUNDFOS
  • From market needs, through conceptual development and design, to sales release


Some of the pumps - Fewer models cover more needs


Project
GRUNDFOS gave DANSK TEKNOLOGI the assignment to develop a complete programme of dosing pumps for precise dosing of chemicals.
GRUNDFOS wanted a new trend setting technology, which - through substantial benefits for the user - would position GRUNDFOS on the market.

USER BENEFITS:
  • Fast, simple and accurate dosing
  • Reduction in logistics costs
  • Easy installation, priming and calibration
  • Optimal dosing of difficult liquids

The product programme comprises two model series with different motor technology. Each model series comprises of five capacities and three different types of material.




  Extent

DANSK TEKNOLOGI was responsible for the development of the complete product programme comprising of:
  • Conceptual design
  • Mechanics
  • Pump parts
  • Cabinet
  • Electronics
  • Embedded software
  • User interface
  • Design
  • Network modules
  • International searching of suppliers
  • Manufacturing of tools
Course
In advance of the project, DANSK TEKNOLOGI carried out an analysis of the potential for innovation in dosing pumps.
After a thorough analysis of existing pumps and typical applications it was clear that there was a need for and possibilities to add new valuable properties.
The work was carried out in an integrated project with overlapping phases.

Patent Pending
The groundbreaking technology is protected by application of five different patents in all major industrial countries.

Technology
Traditional dosing pumps use electromagnets as a power source, which makes precise adjustment difficult. In the new pumps a stepping motor is used, allowing full electronic control of the pump diaphragm, precise dosing and less pulsation.
The pump is easy to install and easy to handle, e.g. the actual dosing can be read on a display. The largest pump is able to precisely dose from 48 ml/hour to 48 litre/hour. This dynamic range (1:1000) is ten times better than for a traditional dosing pump. This also means that customer's with a need for several different capacities need fewer models in stock.
The choice between a side-fitted or a front-fitted control panel assures easy access to the panel and a clear view of the display - no matter how the pump is mounted.
The digital technology also makes it possible to control the dosing pumps via network.
