What is the main purpose of chemical feed pumps?

The main purpose of chemical feed pumps is to inject chemicals into systems. These pumps are specifically designed to deliver a precise and controlled amount of chemical substances into various fluids within a system, ensuring that the necessary chemical treatments are applied efficiently. This process is critical in many applications, such as water treatment, where chemicals like chlorine or coagulants need to be added to disinfect or adjust the water quality.

By accurately controlling the flow and dosage of chemicals, these pumps help maintain the desired chemical balance and enhance the effectiveness of treatment processes while preventing overdosing or underdosing, which can have detrimental effects on the system and overall operations. Their role is not related to increasing water pressure, filtering impurities, or regulating temperature, which are functions that would be handled by other types of equipment.
