The AODD Pump 150 from MECH-FLOW PUMPS is designed for transferring industrial liquids across a range of demanding applications. This 1/2-inch Air Operated Diaphragm Pump uses compressed air to move compatible fluids without an electric motor. Its compact design suits applications involving chemicals, solvents, paints, oils, and wastewater. As an industrial pumping solution, this Industrial Diaphragm Pump helps businesses manage fluid transfer operations to meet process requirements.
Key Features of the AODD Pump 150
The AODD Pump 150 combines compact construction with practical features for industrial fluid handling. Suitability depends on the selected pump materials, operating pressure, and the properties of the liquid being transferred.
· Compact Design: The 1/2-inch connection size makes the pump suitable for space-constrained installations.
· Self-Priming Operation: Supports fluid intake under suitable installation and operating conditions.
· Dry-Run Capability: Can tolerate dry running within the manufacturer’s specified operating limits.
· Seal-Less Pumping Design: The diaphragm-based construction reduces the need for conventional shaft seals in the fluid-handling section.
· Material Options: Available configurations may include polypropylene (PP), PVDF, stainless steel, and aluminum.
· Low-Maintenance Construction: Accessible components can simplify routine inspection and servicing.
These features make the 1/2 Inch Air Operated Diaphragm Pump a practical option for fluid transfer processes where reliability and material compatibility matter.
Technical Specifications of AODD Pump 150
When selecting a Chemical Transfer Pump, manufacturers should evaluate its capacity, construction materials, and operating requirements to ensure compatibility with their application.
· Model: AODD Pump 150
· Connection Size: 1/2 inch
· Maximum Flow Rate: Approximately 35 LPM, depending on operating conditions
· Pump Type: Air-operated double diaphragm pump
· Body Material Options: PP, PVDF, stainless steel, and aluminum, subject to model availability
· Diaphragm Options: PTFE, Santoprene, and rubber, depending on the configuration
The appropriate Corrosive Fluid Pump configuration depends on chemical concentration, temperature, viscosity, and the compatibility of all wetted components. Always confirm the final specifications and operating limits with MECH-FLOW PUMPS before selecting a pump.
