This module uses a Gather gear pump. This pump is typically used for the main process flow or extractant solvent. This module generates a flow to the downstream module. It has a filter, pressure transmitters, and a manual ball valve in the inlet. A manually operated needle valve reduces the flow rate and enables the pump to operate at higher RPMs while delivering lower flow rates with fewer fluctuations. The outlet has a pressure transmitter, flowmeter, on/off valve, and a manual ball valve to zero the flow meter.
This module is built around a HNP annular gear pump. This pump has a flat pump curve and on-board ATEX speed controller. It has a filter, pressure transmitters, and a manual ball valve in the inlet. A manually operated needle valve reduces the flow rate and enables the pump to operate at higher RPMs while delivering lower flow rates with fewer fluctuations. The outlet has a pressure transmitter, flowmeter, on/off valve, and a manual ball valve to zero the flow meter.
This module is used as a utility and will not be used in the continuous process line. It is used for batch transfers. This module assists with product or waste transfer. Using a nitrogen gas-driven pump, the product can be transferred from either inlet (connection A or connection B), to either outlet (Process out 1 or Process out 2).
