How a Bypass Feeder Works
A bypass feeder is installed on a bypass line connected to a circulating water system. Water enters the feeder vessel where treatment chemicals are introduced and dissolved before being carried back into the main system. This process allows operators to safely and efficiently add chemicals without interrupting system operation.
Many water treatment professionals utilize this type of feeder as a reliable chemical shot feeder solution for introducing corrosion inhibitors, scale inhibitors, and cleaning compounds into closed-loop systems.
