Pump Chambers are alternatively filled and emptied by drawing fluid in through
a common suction manifold and out through common discharge manifold.
The diaphragms in each chamber are linked by a common shaft, so that they
move backwards and forwards in unison.
Compressed air is directed by the air valve alternatively, behind each
diaphragm, to power discharge strokes.
Pump speed, fluid output and pressure (or head) is controlled by increasing or
decreasing the flow of compressed air to the pump.

Suction Cycle:
Fluid is drawn into the Suction Manifold at (C), by the suction stroke of the
diaphragm and into Chamber B.
This ‘opens’ the ball valve (2) to allow liquid to enter the chamber.
Ball valve (4) is drawn into the Valve Seat and ‘closed’ by the diaphragm
suction stroke.

Discharge Cycle: In Chamber (A), air has been applied to the rear of the diaphragm to force out
the Fluid in the chamber through the ball valve (3) to the Discharge Manifold (D).
The discharge stroke ‘closes’ the ball valve (1) to prevent further liquid entering the chamber.
This cycle is repeated to provide a continuous flow to the Discharge Manifold at outlet (D).

Air Operated: • No need of electrical drive. • Easy to buy, use and install.
Self Priming: • No need of priming. • Unloading from drums/ sumps etc. • Replaces the traditional drum pumps • Example: Acid and solvents (raw
material) unloading in pharma and refineries
IDEX Proprietary & Confidential
Seal-less Pumps: • Zero Leakage • Less maintenance compared to sealed
pumps • Ideal for corrosive, abrasive, hazardous
liquids handling • Example: Sulphuric Acid, Ink, Solvents
Can be stalled indefinitely: • Can restart automatically when
pressure is released. • Ideal for filling applications • Example: Oil filling lines
IDEX Proprietary & Confidential
Can run at wide variety of flows: • Through air-regulator • No need of VFD • Example: Unloading applications
Can run dry without damage: • No internal pump damage
• Any other seal pump will have seal failures
• Any motorized pump will have motor damage
• In case of PC pump, the whole pump failure
• Example: Viscous liquids/ slurries prone to choking like fruit pulp
IDEX Proprietary & Confidential
Low Shear: • Low velocity and absence of tight
clearances => low shear • Low product degradation and agitation • Example: Paint, Emulsions, Latex
Can handle solids: • No tight clearances • No mechanical seals • Example: Ceramic, waste-water
treatment
IDEX Proprietary & Confidential
Naturally Intrinsically safe -ATEX Approved models: • Safe for using in hazardous environment
Can operate Submerged: • Air supply and exhaust hose will
extend to pump submerged below • Used when lifting from tank below is
not practical
IDEX Proprietary & Confidential
Compact and Portable: • Not anchored to a foundation
• Easy to move • No alignment issues
• Light weight • One pump can be used for many
intermittent services • Example: Sludge removal from tanks
