Abstract
The present invention is directed to an improved liquid additive injection pump that of a type wherein a variety of additive volumes may be metered into a fluid stream or fluid source by adjusting the plunger stroke with an easily accessible adjustment bushing without changing or interrupting, the power supplied to the pump during operation. A robust roller bearing drive is used to power the plunger(s) providing fluid suction and discharge as the plunger(s) cycle, while ensuring accurate and reliable additive injection rates. A spring energized seal eliminates overtightened packing by field technicians. An easily accessible adjustment bushing allows the user to modify the piston stroke length, thereby increasing, decreasing or stopping the volumetric flow of injected additive into a fluid stream or storage container.
