Description
The Chem-Tech Degas Head in PVC is a specialized replacement pump head from Pulsafeeder, engineered for chemical metering pumps handling solutions that release gas. The degassing design helps clear gas bubbles that can otherwise interfere with accurate dosing, a common challenge when feeding chemicals like sodium hypochlorite in disinfection applications.
- Genuine Chem-Tech degassing pump head in PVC
- From Pulsafeeder, a leading chemical feed equipment maker
- Designed to handle off-gassing chemical solutions
- Helps maintain dosing accuracy by clearing gas bubbles
- PVC construction for broad chemical compatibility
- Compact replacement part at approximately 0.25 lbs per piece
Built for Off-Gassing Chemicals
Certain treatment chemicals naturally release gas over time, and those bubbles can accumulate in a standard pump head and disrupt the diaphragm's ability to draw and inject solution consistently, a condition known as vapor lock. A degas head is designed to vent or manage that gas, keeping the pumping chamber primed so the pump continues to dose accurately even with gas-prone chemicals. This makes it especially valuable in chlorination and similar applications where consistent feed is critical.
PVC construction provides solid chemical resistance for many common feed solutions, and as a genuine Chem-Tech component, this head is built to fit and seal correctly within compatible metering pumps. Replacing a worn or non-degassing head with this degas version can resolve persistent dosing inconsistencies caused by gas buildup, restoring reliable performance.
For operators running chemical feed systems on off-gassing solutions, this Chem-Tech degas PVC head is a smart upgrade or replacement. It helps ensure reliable, accurate chemical injection, keeping disinfection and treatment processes performing as intended with fewer interruptions from vapor lock and fewer service calls to re-prime the pump.
Using the manufacturer-matched part avoids the fit and performance issues that can plague generic substitutes, protecting both the equipment and the quality of the treated water it produces. It is a small investment that pays off in reliability, accuracy, and lasting peace of mind. It is exactly the kind of genuine, purpose-built component that keeps water treatment equipment running accurately and dependably over the long term. It reflects the kind of proven, practical design that water treatment specialists trust when reliability and results matter most over the long run.
