FlexFlo A3V24-MNKL Key Overview
The FlexFlo A3V24-MNKL is engineered for demanding chemical feed applications where accuracy, reliability, and ease of maintenance are critical. Unlike diaphragm metering pumps, the peristaltic design isolates the pumped fluid within the tubing, reducing exposure of internal components to aggressive chemicals and eliminating check valves that can foul or clog. The pump's brushless DC motor, precision roller assembly, and digital control platform provide accurate flow control over a wide operating range. Advanced communication capabilities allow integration with SCADA systems, PLCs, and automated process control environments. The patented tube failure detection system helps protect operators and equipment by identifying tubing failures before significant chemical leakage occurs.
Common Applications for the FlexFlo A3V24-MNKL
The FlexFlo A3V24-MNKL is commonly used for chemical dosing and fluid transfer applications in municipal water treatment plants, wastewater facilities, industrial manufacturing operations, food and beverage processing, cooling tower treatment systems, chemical processing facilities, and laboratory support systems. Typical applications include chlorine feed, pH adjustment chemicals, coagulants, polymers, corrosion inhibitors, disinfectants, and specialty process chemicals. Its self-priming capability and ability to handle higher-viscosity fluids make it suitable for a wide range of metering applications.
Common Applications for the FlexFlo A3V24-MNKL
This metering pump is well suited for municipal water and wastewater treatment facilities, pharmaceutical manufacturing plants, biotechnology facilities, chemical production environments, food and beverage processors, power generation facilities, industrial process plants, and research laboratories requiring precise chemical dosing. Facilities seeking a low-maintenance alternative to traditional diaphragm metering pumps often choose peristaltic technology for its simplicity, reliability, and ease of service.

Refurbishment and Testing Process
At American Instrument Exchange, each refurbished metering pump is inspected and evaluated by our technicians prior to shipment. Testing procedures may include motor operation verification, control functionality checks, touchscreen evaluation, tubing and roller inspection, leak assessment, and general operational testing. Components showing excessive wear are replaced as needed to help ensure reliable operation. Final cleaning and inspection are completed before packaging and shipment.
Shipping and Installation Considerations
The FlexFlo A3V24-MNKL is designed for wall-mount or equipment-panel installation and requires a standard 115V electrical connection. Buyers should verify compatibility with their process piping, chemical compatibility requirements, and control system integration needs prior to installation. Adequate space should be provided for routine tubing inspection and replacement. The pump is securely packaged to minimize the risk of shipping damage during transit.
Related Laboratory and Process Equipment
Organizations purchasing metering pumps often also require laboratory refrigerators, freezers, incubators, centrifuges, water treatment equipment, and fluid handling accessories. American Instrument Exchange offers a wide selection of refurbished laboratory and industrial equipment to support facility operations and expansion projects.
FlexFlo A3V24-MNKL Peristaltic Metering Pump Frequently Asked Questions
Does the FlexFlo A3V24-MNKL require check valves?
No. Because it is a peristaltic pump, the fluid remains contained within the tubing, eliminating the need for inlet and outlet check valves commonly found in diaphragm metering pumps.
What are the advantages of a peristaltic metering pump?
Peristaltic pumps are self-priming, resistant to vapor lock, capable of handling higher-viscosity fluids, and typically require less maintenance than many alternative metering pump designs.
Can this pump be integrated into an automated control system?
Yes. The A3V series supports analog and pulse-based control inputs and can be integrated into many SCADA and PLC-controlled environments.
What maintenance is typically required?
Routine maintenance generally consists of periodic tubing inspection and replacement, cleaning of the pump head assembly, and verification of proper operating parameters.
What warranty is included?
This refurbished FlexFlo A3V24-MNKL includes a 90-day warranty from American Instrument Exchange.
