All-Pumps Flap Valve Aodd Pump

FLAP VALVE AIR DIAPHRAGM PUMP DESIGN BENEFITS

  • Perfect For Handling Line-size Solids
  • Large flow area to allow up-to-line-size solids to pass directly through the pump
  • Bottom discharge design helps prevent these solids from settling in the unit
  • Eliminate common issues associated with ball valve pumps, where large solids get stuck in the suction manifold or small solids settle in the outer chamber, affecting performance
  • Quick Access To Serviceable Components
  • Removable Clean-Out Caps: By simply removing the six bolts securing the clean-out cap in place, you can access and clear simple clogs without disassembling the entire pump.
  • Modular Check Valve Access: With the clean-out cap removed, flap valves can be inspected and/or replaced as needed; four bolts hold the modular flap valves in place for quick maintenance and repair.

Description

AIR DIAPHRAGM PUMP: FLAP VALVE TYPE

Best For Abrasive Fluids, Suspended and Non-suspended Solids Handling

Heavy duty-flap valve pumps are the ideal solution for abrasive slurries, non-suspended and line-size solids requirements. These solids handling pumps are workhorses in markets like meat and poultry because of their unique ability to pass large solids that would commonly clog other pumps.

Compared to AODD ball valve pumps and other rotating pump technologies, heavy-duty flap valve pumps are optimized to enhance performance and efficiency.

 

 

 

OPERATING PRINCIPLES OF FLAP VALVE AODD PUMP

It is the attraction of the drive magnet and the impeller magnet which allows the full torque of the motor to be passed onto the impeller. As the shaft of the motor does not extend into the interior of the pump, there is no need for a shaft seal. As the impeller is not fixed to the motor shaft, the impeller floats inside the pump housings. The impeller spins, at the same speed as the motor, supported by a stationary shaft. The only moving part which touches the liquid is the impeller.

Without a shaft seal, the danger of leakage commonly associated with a shaft seal is eliminated. Furthermore, the maintenance cost is reduced because no time or money is spent on maintaining or replacing the shaft seal.
