Price AOD Pumping Solutions For Today's Marketplace

From Price Pump Company
 

 
The concept and use of diaphragm pumps is one of the oldest pumping techniques used by mankind. In the early stages of development, the pumps were crude, mechanically driven, single membrane pumps with virtually no options available. Over the years, more innovative designs have continually progressed the pumps into their most common configuration of the modern world, namely the Air-Operated Double Diaphragm pump. Due to their low initial cost, easy maintenance, simple installation and operation coupld with their ability to pump a wide range of fluids with varying viscosities, along with the seal-less, self-priming, dry running capabilities, its no surprise that the Air-Operated Diaphragm (AOD) pump has become and remains one of the most popular, reliable and versatile pumps on the market today.

Products & Services
Diaphragm pumps use a diaphragm that moves back and forth to transport liquids from one place to another. Search by Specification | Learn more about Diaphragm Pumps
Magnetic drive pumps are sealless pumps that use a coaxial magnetic coupling to transmit torque to an impeller. A standard electric motor drives a set of permanent magnets that are mounted on a carrier or drive assembly. Search by Specification | Learn more about Magnetic Drive Pumps
