An in-line chemical feed pump for a foam dispenser system that has an
inlet conduit for receiving chemical fluid, a pump head in chemical fluid
communication with the inlet conduit, an outlet conduit in chemical fluid
communication with the pump head, and a driver. In addition, there is
provided a pump drive transmission system positioned in drive
transmission communication between the driver and pump head, with the
pump drive transmission system including a magnetic coupling with first
and second magnetic coupling members placed to opposite sides of an
intermediate protective shroud, and with the shroud having a coupling
reception cavity which receives one of said first and second magnetic
coupling members. A method of dispensing foam using an in-line chemical
feed pump is also featured including use of a system where two chemical
lines are involved each with the in-line pump assembly and each line
feeding to a mixing module of a dispenser.
