Sanitary Liquid Product Blending - Equilibar Back Pressure Valves

Sanitary Liquid Product Blending

Precision control of added perfumes and dyes in personal care products

  • Schematic of product blending using the Equilibar BPR to prevent pump slip
One common application for the Equilibar FD Series is liquid product blending or dosing. Many manufacturers of personal care products need to precisely control the amount of perfume, dye, or active ingredient that is injected into a line. Performance of positive displacement pumps can be improved, especially in low viscosity applications, by the addition of a precision back pressure regulator.

An FD Series back pressure regulator, with its unique multiple orifice design, is capable of controlling pressure at extremely low flow rates, allowing a more exact mixture of ingredients during product blending. Additionally, the Equilibar FD regulator acts as an isolator for header pressure fluctuations as blended product flows through the header. This keeps downstream fluctuations from adversely impacting upstream flow control equipment.

Equilibar for electrolysis: emergency shutdown valves

Electrolysis is the chemical process of using electricity to divide a molecule into its component parts. It plays a key role in hydrogen and other renewable energy technologies, which has led to increased exploration and activity in the field. Many electrolysis applications require extremely precise fluid control that can respond to changes almost immediately. The Read More
