Diphragm Pump.mp4

Characteristics
Diaphragm pump characteristics:

have good suction lift characteristics, some are low pressure pumps with low flow rates; others are capable of higher flow rates, dependent on the effective working diameter of the diaphragm and its stroke length. They can handle sludges and slurries with a relatively high amount of grit and solid content.
suitable for discharge pressure up to 1,200 bar
have good dry running characteristics.
can be used to make artificial hearts.
are used to make air pumps for the filters on small fish tanks.
can be up to 97% efficient.
have good self priming capabilities.
can handle highly viscous liquids. A viscosity correction chart can be used as a tool to help prevent under-sizing AOD pumps
