  • This also applies to a larger number of treatment agents, since the number of required metering pumps 6 is halved especially with an even number of storage containers 2, 4.
  • a reversal of the power supply may be sufficient, for example in gear pumps.
  • the cleaning system can be combined with a flushing system. In this way, a thorough mixing of at least one of the treatment agents 3, 5 with the fresh water can already take place in the dosing system.
  • Another advantage is the high integrability of all important functions in a substantially consisting of three components module. On the control side, this is largely compatible with conventional two-substance metering systems. This allows an application in conventional systems with little adaptation effort.
