  API 675 Metering Pumps: A Comprehensive Overview API stands for the American Petroleum Institute. And the API 675 standard is set to measure positive displacement pumps used in the petroleum, petrochemical and gas industries. This means that API 675-approved pumps meet the strictest performance and reliability standards. API 675 mandates several things, such as mechanical integrity, which means the compliant pumps go through several rounds of pressure testing and checks to ensure they can withstand harsh and challenging operating conditions. These pumps also go through flow accuracy testing to ensure absolute precision. Materials used in the construction of the pump also need to meet specific criteria to ensure their chemical and physical compatibility with various fluids. A metering pump is a type of positive displacement pump that delivers liquid in precise amounts. Besides oil and gas, metering pumps can be used for a range of applications such as: ยท    ...
