Progressive Cavity Pump Low Flow Applications: Precision You Can Rely On 2025
When it comes to precise, low-volume fluid transfer, nothing beats a progressive cavity pump low flow setup. Whether you’re handling chemicals, wastewater, or high-viscosity fluids, choosing the right pump for low flow applications is essential. At MultiTorque, we specialise in the supply, service, and repair of progressive cavity pumps tailored for low-flow environments.
From industrial plants to remote mining operations, low flow PC pumps provide accuracy, longevity, and low maintenance costs—making them ideal for niche applications where precision matters more than volume.
What Is a Progressive Cavity Pump?
A progressive cavity pump, also known as a PC pump, is a type of positive displacement pump that uses a helical rotor turning inside a stator to move fluid. As the rotor turns, cavities form and progress along the pump, pushing the fluid smoothly and without pulsation.
This design makes it ideal for low flow scenarios where accurate dosing, gentle handling, and consistent flow rates are critical. Unlike centrifugal pumps, PC pumps maintain flow regardless of back pressure, ensuring reliable operation even in demanding conditions.
Why Low Flow Matters
In industries like water treatment, chemical processing, food production, and mining, accurate low flow pumping is crucial. Under- or over-delivery of product—even by a small margin—can throw off an entire process.
A progressive cavity pump low flow setup offers:
-
Precise metering capabilities
-
Minimal shear on delicate products
-
Steady flow, free from pulsation
-
Great performance with viscous or abrasive fluids
MultiTorque’s range of progressive cavity pumps supports low flow rates from as little as a few millilitres per minute, scaling up based on your system requirements.
Common Low Flow Applications
We often see low flow progressive cavity pumps used in:
-
Dosing chemicals into water or wastewater streams
-
Transferring food-grade materials like yeast, honey, or sauces
-
Injecting additives or lubricants in manufacturing processes
-
Oil and gas applications where chemical injection is critical
-
Laboratory environments requiring precision and consistency
Because of their unique ability to deliver smooth, low-volume output without foaming or damaging the medium, PC pumps are the top choice across these sectors.
