Flowrox™ FXM metering pumps
FXM pumps for accurate metering
Flowrox™ FXM metering pump is ideal for chemical dosing applications which require accurate metering. To optimise metering performance, we offer FXM2 and FXM3 series pumps with improved performance.
Accurate and safe metering
Positive displacement provides same output on every cycle
Versatile system connectivity
Diverse programming options and controllability
Safety
Maintenance mode for safe tube changing.
Technically improved Utilizes latest technology for highest reliability
Improved performance
To optimise metering performance, we offer FXM2 and FXM3 series pumps with improved performance. Compared to the previous generation, FXM pumps have expanded logic programming and functionality and also higher capacity.
Maximum flow of the FXM2 model reaches up to 176 l/hr (46.5 GPH) and FXM3 up to 840 l/hr (221.9 GPH). Working pressure of FXM2 goes up to 8.6 bar (125 psi) and FXM3 up to 4.5 bar (65 psi). They can also withstand fluid temperature up to 54° C (130° F). Combined with accurate metering and a selection of different tube materials, the FXM pumps are an ultimate choice for chemical dosing applications.
Complete solutions & expert advice
Valmet flow control pump professionals will consult you and help to size and choose the right pump for the right application. We also handle service of all pumps and provide all needed spare parts.
Both models, FXM2 and FXM3 pumps have a handle and are easy to carry.

Reliability and safety improved
Accurate and reliable operation
Positive displacement of the tube bore with zero slip provides same output volume on every cycle. There is no variation due to the discharge pressure condition. The compression point of the tube acts as
self-cleaning check valve without clogging risk providing clear flow path with no possibility for vapour lock.
