AOD pump
1. What is an Air Operated Double Diaphragm (AODD) Pump?
An AOD pump is a type of positive displacement pump utilizing compressed air to move liquids through two flexible diaphragms. It's versatile, handling various liquids such as corrosive, abrasive, hazardous and viscous fluids.
2. How does an AOD pump work?
AODD pumps work by alternately filling and discharging fluid through diaphragms that reciprocate due to compressed air. The pump's design allows it to run dry without damage, priming from a lower level.
3. What are the advantages of using an AODD pump?
Key advantages include handling solids and viscous fluids, explosion-proof operation, self-priming capabilities, and portability. These features make AODD pumps ideal for industries needing safe and efficient fluid handling.
4. In which industries are AODD pumps commonly used?
AOD pumps are widely used in chemical, printing, paint, automobile, oil and gas, pharmaceuticals, and wastewater treatment industries due to their ability to handle diverse and challenging liquids safely.
5. What factors affect the diaphragm pump cost?
The cost of a diaphragm pump can be influenced by factors such as material construction (e.g., stainless steel vs. plastic), size, flow rate capacity, and specific industrial applications.
