MXD Instructions: Your Leader in Dosing Technology
MXD INSTRUCTIONS
MXD pumps are heavy duty, precision, electric diaphragm positive displacement pumps.
This dosing pump consists of one main gearbox with dosing head. This unit
forms the main drive of the dosing pump. What makes the MXD pump special
is the capability to add as many extras dosing units to the drive unit. This allows volumes from
10 liters per hour up to any volume imaginable. Each of these dosing units can be independently
regulated by means of a positive adjustment caliper.
Dosing units can be designed in such a manner that several different volumes
or products can be dosed or the total volume can be increased. Increased dosing units allow
higher permissible operating pressure, higher level of precision dosing & greater flexibility in the
products being dosed into the injection line. When four ( 4 ) injection units are combined, it is
possible to obtain straight line dosing, instead of
the pulsed flow usually found with positive displacement dosing pumps. Dosing
units can be added at a later stage as required or at the point of manufacture.
Dosing pumps are also upgradeable in volume as required.
I-FEEDER MXD dosing pumps are manufactured with materials that can
resist most chemicals products, even acids. They are designed for all sorts of processes where
it is necessary to dose a product into a hydraulic network,
such as: food, textile, chemical industry, water treatments, etc. (See materials
in Technical Features). In case there is any doubt about compatibility of
materials with the products to be used please contact I-FEEDER GLOBAL Technical Service.
Each injection unit can be controlled independantly with no need to stop operation when
adjusting the pump volume.
The original packing is prepared so that carriage and storing of the product do
not cause any damage to the product, as long as this is done far from heat
sources and in dry, ventilated spaces.

It is essential to fit in the suction of the dosing liquid the filter of 500 mesh.
Couple the suction pipe to the lower connecter of the cylinder, putting the mesh filter inbetween.
The sediment at the bottom of the tank must never be suctioned, to avoid suction of undiluted parts.
The piping must be stiff enough so that it does not lose its shape when there is suction.
To help suction the piping must be as short as possible, the pipe diameter must be at least 40 mm.
For pipes of over 3 m, diameter must be increased.
8.4 INJECTION
Fix the check valve supplied with the pump at the input of the water network, as
shown in the drawing, and couple the injection hose to the upper connecter of
the cylinder.
The pipe diameter will have to be the same as the valve diameter. For pipes over
15m length the diameter shall be increased. Do never insert a shutoff valve.
Through the micrometic regulator adjust the dosing flow from 0 to 100 % depending
on the wished value. A regulation inferior than 10% is not advisable.
