Piping design for pneumatic diaphragm pumps
Thread Content
Hello everyone! There is a pneumatic diaphragm pump at the site; it was installed using a rigid connection, and after some time of use, leakage occurred at the connection points of the pump
Pneumatic diaphragm pumps also belong to the reciprocating type; the fluid discharge is uneven, which can easily cause vibrations. When installing inlet and outlet pipes, it is important to ensure they have a certain degree of flexibility, and to choose appropriate pipe supports.
Adding to what was said on the 2nd floor: pneumatic diaphragm pumps also belong to the reciprocating type; they use a diaphragm in place of the piston surface, and gas in place of the connecting rod. Therefore, during the operation process, there are variations in pressure levels; an increase in resistance in the outlet section leads to a rise in pressure, and this resulting pressure can reach very high values. Therefore, under normal circumstances, it is operated in accordance with the requirements of piston pumps.
We have just started using pneumatic diaphragm pumps as well; does anyone among you have ready-made drawings that they could share?……
