Metering quantity calculation (capacity measurement)

The specified metering capacities in metering pumps are always determined under ideal
conditions (metering of water at 20 °C, short suction and metering pipes, back-pressure, no
pressure-boosting valves in the metering line).
As these conditions never occur in practice, you are advised to determine the actual
metering quantity of the metering pump under prevailing local conditions (gauge capacity).

The value calculated in l multiplied by 60 equals the actual metering quantity in l/h.

 Connect pump ready for operation on delivery
side (operation-specific pipe length incl. all
pressure-maintenance valves, injection valves
etc. connected during normal operation).
 Set the pump to the required metering quantity
(see chapter
frequency or quantity) and corresponding
metering mode
(see chapter
 Fill a suitable measuring cylinder with the
product to be metered and insert suction pipe.
 Run the pump for exactly 1 minute and measure
the quantity sucked out of the measuring
cylinder.
Upon delivery, the pump is protected against gear oil
leakage by means of a seal on the oil fill aperture.
