Frequently asked questions
Common questions about MEC-O-MATIC from 3G Electric.
What is the maximum flow rate available in MEC-O-MATIC peristaltic chemical metering pumps?
MEC-O-MATIC peristaltic metering pumps in the 3G Electric catalog have maximum flow rates ranging from 12 gpd to 97 gpd. Specific models include 12 gpd (SKU 20LX55), 13 gpd (SKU 20LX53), 20 gpd (SKU 2P304), 60 gpd (SKU 2P305), and 97 gpd (SKU 20LX54). Flow rate depends on the model and tubing size. All listed models use a 1/60 hp motor and operate on 115V AC or 120V AC. Reproducibility is ±2.0% across the line. When selecting a pump, confirm the required flow rate and the chemical compatibility of the tubing material with the fluid being dosed.
What tubing materials are available for MEC-O-MATIC peristaltic pumps and replacement kits?
MEC-O-MATIC peristaltic pumps and replacement tube kits are available with Neoprene, synthetic rubber, Norprene, and silicone tubing. For example, SKU 2P304 and SKU 20LX55 use Neoprene tubing, while SKU 20LX53, SKU 2P305, and SKU 20LX54 use synthetic rubber. Replacement tube kits include Norprene (SKU 41HP31 and SKU 1R422) and silicone (SKU 41HP33). Tubing material selection depends on chemical compatibility with the dosed fluid. Norprene and silicone are common for different chemical resistance profiles. Always verify compatibility with the specific chemical and concentration before installation.
Which MEC-O-MATIC replacement tube kits are compatible with the Mecomatic series?
The Mecomatic series is compatible with several replacement tube kits listed by 3G Electric. SKU 41HP31 (Norprene, 3/8 in connection) is compatible with model UVSP12XRLLAUG19. SKU 41HP33 (silicone, 5/16 in connection) is compatible with model UT24-XA-LTAUG19. SKU 1R422 (Norprene) is compatible with model UVSP20XRLLAUXXX. These kits are designed as pump head tubing for peristaltic pumps. When ordering, match the kit to the specific pump model number to ensure correct fit and tubing material. Refer to the manufacturer part number and compatible model number listed for each kit.
What are the voltage and motor specifications for MEC-O-MATIC peristaltic metering pumps?
MEC-O-MATIC peristaltic metering pumps in the 3G Electric catalog operate on 115V AC or 120V AC and use a 1/60 hp motor. For example, SKU 2P304 and SKU 2P305 are rated for 120V AC, while SKU 20LX53, SKU 20LX54, and SKU 20LX55 are rated for 115V AC. The motor horsepower is consistent at 1/60 hp across the listed models. Voltage availability should be confirmed against the site power supply. These pumps are designed for continuous or intermittent dosing duty in water treatment, industrial processing, and agricultural applications.
How do I select the right MEC-O-MATIC peristaltic pump for my chemical dosing application?
Selection depends on required flow rate, chemical compatibility, and voltage. Determine the maximum flow rate needed in gallons per day (gpd) and choose a model within the 12–97 gpd range. Verify that the tubing material (Neoprene, synthetic rubber, Norprene, or silicone) is compatible with the chemical being dosed. Confirm the available voltage (115V AC or 120V AC). Consider whether variable flow or adjustable flow control is needed. For replacement parts, match the tube kit to the specific pump model number. 3G Electric lists manufacturer part numbers and compatible model numbers to assist with matching.
