Description
Diaphragm pumps
A diaphagm pump, also knows as a membrane pump, is a positive displacement pump that enables users in industries to standardise on a pump type that is suitable for a wide variety of fluids. Verderair diaphragm pumps, manufactured in-house and to the highest standards in the industry, are available in different materials, both metallic and non metallic, to suit any specific needs in fluid handling, no matter how difficult.
How does a Diaphragm Pump work?
A diaphragm pump operates by using a flexible diaphragm that moves back and forth to create a variable volume within the pump chamber. As the diaphragm moves up, it creates a vacuum, drawing fluid into the chamber. When the diaphragm moves down, it pushes the fluid out of the discharge valve. This type of pump is often used for its reliability and ability to handle various fluids without contamination, as the fluid does not come into contact with moving parts like gears or pistons.
