CALIBRATION CYLINDER

By KENCO

Calibration cylinders, or columns, are used to monitor and control the dosage and accuracy of metering pumps and chemical injection systems. These devices are designed to improve the performance of chemical feed systems through verification of the flow rate of the chemical feed pump. As chemicals become more expensive and operating budgets get tighter, the accurate verification of the pump flow rate of metering pumps can lead to improved cost savings.

Calibration columns are made of robust construction with clear PVC or glass with an easy to read graduation in mL and gph. They are typically installed on the suction side of the metering pump and are isolated with two valves connected with the cylinder.
