Applications And Benefits Of PTFE Products

Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)  is a form of thermoplastic resin that is resistant to practically most of the corrosive services. It is one of the best materials for diaphragm pump because of its chemical stability and resistance. Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is a durable and flexible elastomer of average tensile strength but remarkable chemical resistance, as well as excellent thermally and electrically resistive properties. At a molecular level, PTFE consists of a chain of carbon atoms with two fluorine atoms bonded to each carbon. These fluorine atoms surround the carbon chain, creating a dense molecule with very strong carbon-fluorine bonds and a polymer structure that is inert to most chemicals. PTFE diaphragms have been one of the most thriving components that have lead to a breakthrough in the pump industry. They have been widely produced and are extremely successful in various industries across the globe. Following the pump industry: A peristaltic pu...

Factors To Be Considered While Selecting Diaphragm Pump

Selection of the right diaphragm for an  air operated double diaphragm pump  is a critical consideration for safety, efficiency operations. A number of factors must be taken into account when choosing the proper diaphragm that will be suitable/capable for a specific application. Previous experience is always a very helpful guide, but new applications will often require research & outside advice to determine the appropriate diaphragm pump that will meet specific application requirements and parameters. Fluid – One of the most important factors that needs to be taken into consideration is the Type, Composition & Nature of the fluid in order to avoid corrosion of wetted parts & also to prevent the wear of the pump. It is also necessary to determine - What’s the chemical composition of the fluid? What’s the consistency? Is it a slurry (thick suspension of solids in liquids), or is it a clean fluid? A peristaltic pump or hose pump is a type of ...

Best Industrial Uses Of AODD Pump

An AODD pump and peristaltic pump or hose pump is a type of positive displacement pump that uses compressed air as a power source. The compressed air is shifted from one chamber to the other by a linked shaft that allows the chambers to move simultaneously. This back-and-forth motion forces liquid out of one chamber and into the discharge piping while the other chamber is being filled with liquid at the same time. These pumps use reciprocating elastomeric diaphragms and check valves to pump fluid. The liquid chambers are filled and emptied by fluid that is drawn through a common inlet and discharged through a single outlet. Benefits of AODD Pump: 1. Variable Flow-rate & Discharge Pressure  – Varying of air supply to the pump will vary the flow rate and/ or pressure that the diaphragm pump produces. 2. Seal-less/ Leak Free Design  – No mechanical seal means that the Air pumps are totally contained & leak-free. 3. Ease of Maint...

About AODD Pump – 3 Industrial Uses and Applications

AODD pumps (also known as Air operated diaphragms pumps, pneumatic diaphragm pumps, AODD pumps, AOD pumps) are used for endless applications in mining, industrial and general plant service. Powered only by compressed air, they are especially used where electricity isn’t available, or in explosive or flammable areas. AOD pumps are a type of reciprocating diaphragm pump which contains two diaphragms driven by compressed air. Air section with shuttle valve applies air alternately to the two diaphragms, each diaphragm has a set of check/ball valves. Chemical & Refineries: AODD Pump can handle all types of chemicals including acids, bases, solvents and alkalis, resins and adhesives, high-density liquids and viscous products even with the presence of solid parts and particles. Moreover, they can also transfer oil skimming, oil sludge, storm water, seawater, drainage water, latex, corrosion inhibitors, fertiliser, pesticides, insecticides and more. The A...

Advantages Of AODD Pump For Submersible

Most AODD models can be fully submerged. When using as submersible pump, both the liquid path and external components must be compatible with the material in which the pump will be submersed. Submersed pumps must have a hose attached to air exhaust and the exhaust piped above liquid level. This submersible pump is advantages of AODD Pump . Submersible pumps are among the most efficient options available if you need to pump liquid from a large body of water. Whereas most water pumps are positioned outside of bodies of water and pull water to the surface, submersible pumps are submerged and push water to the surface. This process is far less energy-intensive than sucking or pulling water to the surface, which means that submersible pumps are affordable to run and can be relied on to produce high-quality results. Obviously, submersible pumps can only operate effectively in bodies of water that are deep enough for them to be submerged. However, if you do have access t...

Advantages of Peristaltic Hose Pumps for Magnesium Hydroxide

This chemical material causes a range of problems due to its rough properties and can be hard going on specific types of pump systems. Due to which, pump failure rates are a common issue of those trying to shift this chemical material, costing ventures valuable time and resources due to its maintenance. Considering this, we look at peristaltic hose pumps and why they are flawlessly right as magnesium hydroxide pumps – as they are dependable and cost effective for a number of diverse situations. What is Magnesium Hydroxide & it’s benefits? Magnesium hydroxide is used in numerous vriety of industries to both lower the PH levels of a liquid transported, and to lessen the accrual of slag collection inside a pump system. Benefits of using magnesium hydroxide include: It’s non-acidic Taking down unwanted deposits of materials Ecologically friendly Safe for human consumption Though it is a common material, magnesium hydroxide can also cause problems, particular...

Air-Operated Double-Diaphragm – AODD pumps

AODD pumps is a variety of positive displacement pump which contains of two pumping compartments that are alternately filled and discharged by the movement of flexible diaphragms. Compressed air is interchangeably sent to, and vented from, air compartments on the differing sides of the diaphragms to generate the propelling action. AODD pumps are usually used for transmitting applications and can manage a wide variety of inputs that includes sludge’s, slurries, rough and shear delicate solutions. Even though they are robust, dependable and easy to maintain they can be loud, prone to frosting, and are restricted to low pressure applications. How AODD Pumps Work? LEFT STROKE The air valve leads pressurized air to the posterior side of diaphragm A. The compressed air is applied straight to the fluid column divided by elastomeric diaphragms. The diaphragm acts as a parting membrane between the compressed air and fluid, balancing the weight and eliminating mechanical stress f...
