Drain valve Seko Invikta

Seko dosing pump purge valve 

A bleed valve is a crucial component in a metering pump system. Its main function is to remove air or gases trapped in the suction line or pump head. This air bleed is essential to ensure efficient and accurate operation of the metering pump.

When air enters the dosing system, it can cause problems such as loss of dosing accuracy, formation of bubbles in the liquid, clogging of fluid lines and even pump malfunction. Therefore, the bleed valve is crucial to eliminate this air and ensure a continuous and uniform flow of the liquid through the system.

Different types of bleed valves are available depending on the seal material:

• FKM-B (Viton) seals: used specifically for acidic products.
• EPDM seals: used for products such as soda, alkaline products, etc.

The Seko purge valve is compatible with the Seko Invikta KCS model.

How do I know which bleed valve to choose for my Invikta dosing pump

When selecting the metering pump model or its spare parts, it is essential to take into account the coding found on the side label. This coding not only identifies the model, but also provides crucial information, such as the hydraulic characteristics, the materials of the various components, the power supply...

We consider the Seko Invikta model KCS632AVFK00 to explain the coding:

1. The first field is the model: KCS

2. The second field the hydraulic characteristic: 632

3. The third field is the voltage: A

4. The fourth field is the head material and seals: VF

Seals:

• FKM-B: also known as Viton, it is specifically used for acidic products.
• EPDM: type of gasket used for products such as soda, alkaline products.

5. The fifth field is the installation kit: K

6. The sixth field is customizations: 00

For this particular model, KCS632AVFK00, the purge valve that would correspond to it would be code EM99106796 choosing:

• Seals: FKM-B
