What To Consider in Gas Diaphragm Pumps?

Regarding gas diaphragm pumps, several crucial factors should be taken into account:

1. Gas Compatibility: Ensure that the diaphragm pump you choose is compatible with the type of gas you intend to handle.

2. Flow Rate and Pressure Requirements: Determine the specific flow rate and pressure levels needed for your application. Select a pump that can deliver the required performance within these parameters.

3. Chemical Resistance: If the pumped gas is corrosive or reactive, consider the chemical resistance of the pump materials, which is essential to prevent damage to the pump and maintain its longevity.

4. Safety Features: Check if the pump has safety features such as pressure relief valves or overheat protection to prevent accidents and damage.

5. Noise and Vibration Levels: Consider the noise and vibration levels produced by the pump, especially if it will be used in a noise-sensitive environment.

6. Environmental Considerations: Assess whether the pump meets any environmental regulations or requirements, such as emissions standards or energy efficiency.

 

How Diaphragm Pumps and Compressors Work?

Gas diaphragm pumps, also known as membrane pumps, are reciprocating pumps. An eccentric transforms the motor’s rotational movement into an up and downward motion of a con-rod. Attached to the con-rod is a flexible diaphragm.

The linear movement of the con-rod causes the diaphragm to sweep through a clearance volume within the pump head. On the down-stroke air or gas is drawn into the pump head assembly. During the up-stroke, the media is expelled outward.
