Transvac has supplied thousands of units to the process and allied industries. Using liquid as the motive force, Transvac jet pumps can accurately entrain, mix and dilute a secondary liquid, eliminating the need for mechanical dosing pumps and mixers.

In operation, a high-velocity jet of pressurised liquid discharged from the motive nozzle produces a region of low pressure in the suction chamber that entrains the secondary liquid. The two streams then mix thoroughly in the throat before the resulting mixture flows through the diverging cone to regain some pressure in order to overcome system discharge heads.
