Unlike traditional volumetric dosing devices (which dispense a fixed volume regardless of flow), the proportional dosing device automatically adjusts the amount of product injected, maintaining a constant ratio between the treated liquid and the additive.<\/p>\n<h4>Operation<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Basic principle<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The dosing device uses water pressure and flow to activate a piston or diaphragm.<br \/>\nEach piston stroke corresponds to a predetermined volume of water.<br \/>\nIn proportion to this volume, the set amount of additive is aspirated and injected.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Key feature<\/strong>: The amount of additive dosed varies automatically as the water flow rate varies, ensuring constant mixing.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Technology<\/strong>: Non-electric proportional pump, which operates solely on water pressure, without the need for external power.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Calibrated nozzles<\/strong>: In some models, a calibrated nozzle ensures that the concentration does not exceed predetermined values.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Main uses<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Drinking and industrial water treatment<\/strong>: dosing polyphosphates to prevent limescale buildup.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong>Agriculture<\/strong>: distribution of fertilizers and plant protection products in proportion to irrigation water.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong>Food and pharmaceutical industries<\/strong>: dosing liquid additives in production lines.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong>Cleaning and sanitization<\/strong>: injection of detergents or disinfectants into washing systems.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong>Swimming pools and sports facilities<\/strong>: automatic regulation of chlorine and other chemicals.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Advantages<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Dynamic precision<\/strong>: maintains the additive\/water ratio constant even with variations in flow rate.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong>Reliability<\/strong>: does not require electricity (in hydraulic models), reducing costs and maintenance.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong>Safety<\/strong>: Prevents overdosing or underdosing, protecting systems and reducing waste.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Versatility<\/strong>: Suitable for use in a variety of sectors, from domestic (water softening) to industrial.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>In conclusion<\/strong>: the proportional volumetric dosing system is the ideal choice when fluid flow varies and consistent and safe mixing is required. It is particularly widespread in water treatment and agriculture, where proportionality is essential to avoid waste and ensure effectiveness.<\/p>\n<p>Contact <strong>Dosita Srl<\/strong> to evaluate and recommend the system best suited to your needs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The proportional volumetric doser is a device that doses additives [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8173,"featured_media":3524,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3526","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dosita.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3526"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dosita.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dosita.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dosita.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8173"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dosita.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3526"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.dosita.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3526\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3527,"href":"https:\/\/www.dosita.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3526\/revisions\/3527"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dosita.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3524"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dosita.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3526"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dosita.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3526"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dosita.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3526"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
