Piston Diaphragm Pumps

Product Overview

Piston diaphragm pumps are positive displacement pumps designed to economically transfer small volumes of fluid at low discharge pressures. The lightweight, compact pumps are self-priming, corrosion resistant, and can handle viscous fluids. These features make the pumps ideal for high volume copy machines, scientific and laboratory instruments and other chemical dispensing applications.

Standard models are constructed with 12 or 24 volt DC solenoids. A switch is required to supply pulsed voltage to the pump. The energized solenoid pulls the piston and diaphragm up, drawing fluid into the pump. A spring forces the piston back to its original position when the solenoid is de-energized, forcing fluid out of the pump, and the cycle is repeated. Valves are utilized to prevent backflow into the pump and to maintain prime.
