Proportioning - Three Pump Series
Madden pumps are ideal for injecting the correct proportion of chemical into an operating process, whether that process is water or waste water treatment, or extracting gold from ore in a mill. Madden diaphragm type proportioning pumps are industrial grade equipment designed to be used where chemicals must be pumped 24-7-365. Engineered materials are used for the wetted end to pump virtually any chemical, from acids to caustics. Even viscous liquids and suspended solids can be metered and pumped with precise accuracy.![]() |

Accuracy
Getting just the right amount of chemical added to the process requires a precision pump design. Repeatable accuracy of +/- 1% over a 10:1 turndown ratio is maintained with the stroke adjustment control located conveniently on the top of every Madden pump.Reliability
The Madden pump’s mechanically actuated diaphragm design makes irritating hydraulic systems and packing glands old fashioned. Continuously lubricated bearings and shafts are bathed in of to assure many years of dependable pumping service. The heavy duty diaphragm keeps the chemical from penetrating the inner gear works of the pump. And when it is time to replace worn wetted end parts the job is quick and easy and accomplished with common tools. Proportioning pumps by Madden are heavy duty, industrial grade, using standard industrial 56 frame motors and worm gear reducers to produce reliable chemical pumping power designed to provide years of dependable service.Features include:
-
JN Series Pump
- Valve check balls are available in Teflon, stainless steel, Hastelloy C and ceramic
- Corrosion resistant materials include Teflon, 316 stainless steel, polypropylene and PVC.
- Thick Nylon reinforced diaphragms for years of tough pumping service. Materials include Teflon faced, Viton, Hypalon, and Neoprene.
- Motors are available in 50 Hz and 60 Hz power, with explosion proof, mill, and chem duty, and washdown duty enclosures available to meet the site requirements
How about automatic control for chemical proportioning?
Madden diaphragm metering pumps are available with a variable speed motor and controller which can automatically change pump output in response to a control signal. With an instrument, a pH sensor, for example, to generate a 4-20 mA control signal the motor speed can be changed to increase or decrease the amount of chemical being injected into the process. Contact your Madden sales representative to have your chemical proportioning done automatically.Safety Features
Type DDB Double Diaphragm
When pumping corrosive and dangerous chemicals parts on the pump will inevitably fatigue. These chemicals can be extremely corrosive to metals, rubbers, and other materials found in the plant, as well they are harmful to human skin. A potential leak or rupture in the pumping system can have dangerous and costly consequences.Madden's Type DDB Double Diaphragm construction is a feature meant to minimize/eliminate the dangers and potential losses that result from a rupture or leak in the proportioning pump. This is achieved by adding additional safety features to the pump to ensure the operator that the corrosive liquid will not enter the interior of the pump or leak on the shop floor. The dry mechanical design means never having to worry about hydraulic barrier fluids entering the application in the case of pharmaceutical and food applications.

Proportioning Pump, Extra Protection
To ensure corrosive chemicals, such as caustic soda, never reach the inside and damage the pump’s interior components, the Type DDB double diaphragm construction design adds a spacer and another backup/secondary diaphragm to the chemical pump’s wetted end. When properly maintained Madden proportioning pumps have lasted for over 25 years with only minor wetted end parts needing to be replaced. Adding a Type DDB double diaphragm to your proprotioning pump will help add years of service life to your next Madden proportioning pump/system.The pictures to the right is a Madden JN series pump with a standard, single primary diaphragm design, and a Madden JN series type DDB double diaphragm design.
