Acumen for Accuracy
Precision is everything. Consistency is everything else.
Zenith precision-gear metering pumps provide accurate‚ reliable‚ pulse-free metering performance over a wide range of process applications and fluid conditions.
When it comes to the high expectations for metering pump systems, Zenith delivers with accurate, reliable and pulse-free performance. Serving the food and beverage, nutraceutical and personal-care markets, we strive to deliver the greatest value at the lowest total cost of ownership with every solution.
Since 1926, the Zenith Pump brand has offered engineers pulse free precise flow with low NPSH (net positive suction head) requirements. These positive displacement pumps utilize an intermeshing gear system that rotates within a housing. As the gears rotate, a void is created drawing the material into the pump. The tight operating tolerances of the gears and available material options for the housing provide significant advantages in fiber, polymer processing, adhesives, paints, food and other markets.
As part of the CIRCOR family of brands, we combine exceptional engineering with a focused attention to your needs—from cost to overall product appeal—attention that’s always backed by an experienced support team.
Precision, with consistency, is everything. That’s why we design and tailor your metering pump systems to any process application, including dosing, filling, injection, coating, coloring, flavoring, extruding, spraying and fiber spinning. We can accommodate fragrance metering, colorants, fillers, antioxidants, surfactants, emulsifiers, preservatives, adhesives and expensive trace ingredients—hot, cold, corrosive, viscous, shear-sensitive, you name it.

Solutions for Adhesives and Sealants
Zenith Pumps for Paints and Coatings
For dependable control of critical coating applications. High accuracy eliminates costly over-application associated with less accurate methods, and the pumps often pay for themselves in savings in one year or less.
Zenith pumps and systems are used in a range of applications in a variety of markets. Generally, Zenith pumps meter chemical solutions; yet the requirements of each generic metering function can be industry specific. Zenith pumps applications are classified as dosing, filling, injection, coating, extruding, spraying or spinning.
Zenith pumps feature a wide operating flow, pressure and temperature range capable of handling abrasive, corrosive, hot, cold, viscous, toxic and shear sensitive fluids.
- Minimum – Maximum Flow Rate = 0.16 – 27,000 cc/rev
- Maximum Viscosity = 1,000,000 cps
