Accustaltic pumps were made for flow dividing applications. If you need to take one flow and divide it into up to 12 identical flows, an Accu-Staltic Flow Dividing Pump will make short work of your problem. For more than 12 channels, pumps can be coupled to increase the capacity.
Advantages:
All channels are identical flow, regardless of back pressure. Up to a 60 PSI differential.
Flow controlled from pump speed- no need to balance out or adjust needle valves or other variable orifices to get the flow you need.
Flow does not vary with pressure- changing system parameters will not affect flow distribution.
Uses:
Laboratory: multiple repetitions.
Simulations: simulate drip irrigation accurately.
Agriculture: make sure each nozzle gets what you think it’s getting.
Lubrication: pump oil through your machine knowing that its actually getting where it’s supposed to.
Ink: re-distribute ink uniformly along the drum face.
Fill and dose multiple containers at one time, from a few ml per fill on up.
Fractions: with a 4 channel pump, join 3 hoses on the outlet side to send 75% of the flow to one location, route the other 25% to another location, without having to adjust and test.
Below, you can see the very high degree of accuracy between the 4 flows from a 4 channel Accu-Staltic pump. Why screw around with orifices or needle valves, and constant recalibration? Accu-Staltic stands for accurate flow dividing!
