Whether you're managing chemical inventory in a water treatment facility or monitoring tank levels in an industrial setting, accuracy matters. That's where an electronic weight indicator comes in.
These devices provide real-time digital weight readings from platform scales or load cells, helping you track the contents of chemical tanks, drums, and containers with precision and confidence.
When it comes to handling concentrated chemicals, precision isn't a luxury — it’s a necessity. Whether you're disinfecting water, blending adhesives, or dosing industrial solutions, using the right chemical concentration makes all the difference.
That’s where chemical dilution systems come in. In this post, we’ll break down what they are, how they work, and how Force Flow’s Merlin™ dilution system is helping operations get smarter, safer, and more accurate every day.
A chemical dilution system automatically mixes a concentrated chemical with water to create a ready-to-use solution. You’ll find them in:
These systems help reduce waste, prevent overexposure, and make sure your chemical process is running exactly how it should — no more, no less.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) have agreed to extend the deadline for the agency to finalize a rule on perchlorate in drinking water by six months, reports Inside EPA (October 4 – subscription required). In an October 1 filing with the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, EPA and NRDC say, “the parties have stipulated to extend the deadline for EPA to sign for publication in the Federal Register a final maximum contaminant level goal (MCLG) and a national primary drinking water regulation (NPDWR) for perchlorate from December 19, 2019, to June 19, 2020,” states the newsletter; this follows EPA’s previously announced six-month delay in issuing the proposed version of the rule. Last May, EPA proposed an MCLG and Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) of 56 micrograms perchlorate per liter of water (ug/L or parts per billion [ppb]), notes Inside EPA; “in that proposal, the agency also asked the public to comment by Aug. 26 on a variety of other options including setting levels more and less stringent or not regulating the chemical at all in drinking water, given new information on occurrence levels.”
When EPA proposed the perchlorate rule, “it sought comment on setting the MCL and MCLG at 18 ug/L, 90 ug/L, or withdrawing EPA’s 2011 determination to regulate perchlorate at all in drinking water,” writes the newsletter. “As such, the proposal could test the agency’s discretion under SDWA to forgo setting an enforceable standard, an area of that law that sources say is still evolving,” says Inside EPA.

Federal appellate judges have denied a request from environmental and labor groups to stay or summarily vacate the Trump Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) final rule delaying an Obama-era overhaul of the Risk Management Plan (RMP), stating that the groups have failed to meet “stringent standards” for a stay, reports Inside EPA (August 31). In an August 30 order, “a panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit granted environmentalists’ request for expedited briefing and ordered the parties to submit a briefing schedule within 14 days,” notes Inside EPA; “oral argument will be scheduled for the first appropriate date after briefing is complete, the court said.”
