Metering Tip Selection:
The final concentration of the dispensed solution is
related to both the size of the metering tip opening and the
viscosity of the liquid being siphoned. For water-thin
products, the chart right can be used as a
guideline
. If
product is noticeably thicker than water, consult the
Measurement of Concentration Procedure below to
achieve your desired water-to-product ratio. Because
dilution can vary with water temperature and pressure,
actual dilution achieved can only be ascertained by using
the Measurement of Concentration Procedure. The clear,
undrilled tip is provided to permit drilling to size not listed
should you need a dilution ratio that falls between standard
tip sizes.
Measurement of Concentration:
You can determine the dispensed water-to-product ratio
for any metering tip size and product viscosity. All that is
required is to operate the primed dispenser for a minute
or so and note two things: the amount of dispensed
solution, and the amount of concentrate used in
preparation of the solution dispensed. The water-to-
product ratio is then calculated as follows:
Dilution Ratio (X:1) where X = Amount of Mixed Solution — Amount of Concentrate Drawn
Amount of Concentrate Drawn
Dilution Ratio, then, equals X parts water to one part concentrate (X:1). If the test does not yield the desired ratio, choose
a different tip and repeat the test. Alternative methods to this test are 1) pH (using litmus paper), and 2) titration. Contact your
concentrate supplier for further information on these alternative methods and the materials required to perform them.
