Air-Operated Double Diaphragm (AODD) pumps are versatile and able to withstand caustic and abrasive liquids. Their simple design provides energy-efficient operation, and safe operation in Class I Division 2 environments. AOD pumps are trusted in many industries for their ability to handle wide varieties of liquids; from high viscosity fluids not suitable for centrifugal pumps to low viscosity fluids too challenging for positive displacement pumps.
Applications for AODD pumps include:
- Chemical Processing: Solvents, Alkalides, Magnesium Hydroxide, Resins, Electrolytes, Sulfuric Acid
- Environmental: Wastewater, Oil Skimming, Stabilizers, Effluent Sludge, Sewage Treatment, Waste Oil
- Paint and Ink Manufacturing: Titanium Dioxide Slurry, Primer, Enamels, Alkaloid Resin, Stain, Varnishes
- Liquid Handling: Fluid Transfer, Oil/Water Separators, Sump and Pit Draining, Suspensions/Dispersions
- Marine: Tank and Bilge Drainage, Water Treatment, Oil Skimming, Fuel Transfer
- Metal and Steel
- Mines and Quarries
- Construction
- Paper and Wood
- Clay and Ceramics
- Electrical and Appliance
- Food Processing
- Aircraft and Automotive
- Beverages
- Glass and Fiberglass
