Micropump applications fuel additive injection

apps-fuel-additive-optimized

Fuel can be improved, changed, or enhanced through the addition of fuel additives according to specific performance and usage requirements.

Typical Examples Include:

  • Refining additives
  • Detergent additives to keep fuel injectors clean
  • Color dyes to identify fuel grades
  • Lead-based additives for aviation
  • Corrosion inhibitors
  • Lubricants for extended engine and pump life
  • Anti-icing additives for jet fuel
  • Static dissipater additives

MICROPUMPS PUMPS COMMONLY USED IN THIS APPLICATION

Micropump “suction shoe” style pumps are commonly used for this application. Micropump Series GB is best suited for lower flows and Micropump Series GC for higher flows. Micropump Suction Shoe style gear pumps provide more consistent flow with varying differential pressure, and extended pump wear, than standard cavity style gear pumps. Suction shoe pumps also perform better with wide-ranging temperature changes than cavity-style pumps. Micropump's integrated electromagnet EagleDrive™ provides variable, precise flow control in an energy-efficient and compact package.
