AP 03 Plastic Diaphragm Pump

AP 03 Plastic Diaphragm Pump: A plastic-bodied, air-operated diaphragm pump with 1/4"-3/8" threaded connections, operating within a capacity range of 0–16 L/min.

Air-operated diaphragm pumps operate on the principle of a double diaphragm that moves alternately with compressed air; their seal-less design ensures leak-free transfer, they are self-priming, and they are not damaged by dry running.

It is manufactured with a polypropylene body; options for the internal components and diaphragm include Neoprene, Buna-N, Teflon, Viton, Santoprene, and EPDM.

The polypropylene housing is suitable for transferring acids and alkalis; the Teflon diaphragm option allows for use with aggressive solvents.

The discharge head ranges from 0 to 84 mss, with a maximum suction lift of 6 to 8 m, and it can transfer liquids containing solid particles up to 1 mm in size.

The pump is driven by compressed air in the 0–8.4 bar range; the air connection is 1/4", and air consumption ranges from 1.8 to 10 m³/h.

With its corrosion-resistant plastic housing, it is suitable for use in transfer lines containing corrosive chemicals.
