HUGE PUMP-GÜNALSAN
Air-operated diaphragm pumps, commonly known as air pumps, are versatile tools in various fields. These pumps operate by connecting to an air compressor, making them explosion-proof as they lack electric components. This design allows safe handling of flammable, combustible, and explosive materials. Diaphragm pumps efficiently handle high-viscosity liquids and can draw from depths up to 6 meters without priming, eliminating the need for a check valve. Their design simplifies maintenance, allowing on-site repairs. These pumps can also function underwater as submersible pumps or as drum pumps.
Material | Max Temp | Min Temp | Characteristics |
Neoprene | 90˚C | -22˚C | Great for vegetable oils, resistant to abrasion but not suitable for acids, esters, or ketones. |
Buna-N | 87˚C | -22˚C | Ideal for oils and hydraulic fluids. |
EPDM | 138˚C | -40˚C | Resistant to chemicals, moderate resistance to alcohols and ketones. |
Teflon | 100˚C | -35˚C | Great for heavy chemicals and acids, suitable for high-temperature liquids. |
Viton | 175˚C | -40˚C | Excellent resistance to acids, oils, and solvents. |
