Rugged J-L Wingert DB-5HD Feeder for Closed-Loop Water Treatment
The J-L Wingert DB-5HD Bypass Feeder provides a rugged and dependable solution for adding treatment chemicals to hot water, chilled water, and other liquid systems. Its simple design makes installation, operation, and routine maintenance quick and easy. As a result, it performs reliably in commercial and industrial water treatment applications.
The 5-gallon bypass feeder features an epoxy-coated carbon steel vessel that resists corrosion and daily wear. In addition, it handles common treatment chemicals, including corrosion inhibitors, scale preventatives, biocides, and pH control solutions. This durable construction supports long service life in demanding environments.
Furthermore, the dome-bottom vessel improves chemical mixing and solution flow. Heavy-duty welded legs provide stable floor mounting, while the 3-1/2-inch cast iron quarter-turn cap allows fast and secure chemical loading. The Buna-N O-ring also creates a tight seal to help prevent leaks.
The DB-5HD operates safely at pressures up to 200 PSI and temperatures up to 200°F. Therefore, it is an excellent choice for boilers, cooling towers, and closed-loop HVAC systems.
Available from Water Treatment Supply, the J-L Wingert DB-5HD is easy to install and maintain. It also supports optional filter bag kits for facilities that require both chemical dosing and particulate filtration.
