How should a dosing pump be mounted in a dosing tank?

Mounting a dosing pump on concrete blocks or specially designed pump stands is the recommended approach because it ensures proper positioning and stability for the pump. This method elevates the pump off the bottom of the tank, which helps prevent any sediment or solids that may settle at the tank's bottom from being drawn into the pump. By using stands, the pump can operate efficiently and reduce the risk of clogs or damage, improving its longevity and performance.

Additionally, mounting the pump this way facilitates maintenance access and reduces vibrations that could be transmitted through a direct bottom mount. This setup helps maintain the hygiene and functionality of the dosing system, which is crucial in septic applications. Proper positioning also helps with the effective and accurate dosing of effluent, which is essential in maintaining the efficacy of the septic system.
