Compressed air-driven piston pumps


Piston Pumps

Air-operated pumps for industrial applications are suited for long pipelines, high flow rates, and numerous simultaneous outlets. Piston pumps are used in a variety of fluid handling applications. The majority of these can be categorized into four different types:

• Transfer
Simple transfer involves moving a fluid with low to medium viscosity from one location to another. Double-Ball and Power-Piston pumps are typically used in transfer applications.

• Extrusion
Extrusion involves using a piston pump to apply medium to high-viscosity materials. Typical extrusion applications require accessories such as pump lifters. Power-Piston and Dynamic-Primer pumps are commonly used in extrusion applications.

• Coating application
This involves the application of material either by spraying or dipping. Coating applications utilize Double-Ball pumps.

• Metering / dispensing
Metering and dispensing involve the delivery of a specified amount of liquid on a repetitive basis. Metering/dispensing applications use Double-ball, Power-piston, and Dynamic-primer pumps.
SAMOA's different types of piston pumps and applications
Double ball piston pumpsThese pumps are engineered to manage a variety of high-viscosity fluids, accommodating viscosities up to 20,000 cPs. They are capable of operating at a maximum pressure of 70 bar (1,000 psi) and can deliver flow rates up to 20 l/min (5.2 gal/min). The versatility in handling materials such as oils, coatings, paints, and chemicals makes them suitable for a broad range of industrial and commercial applications.Applications• Transfer• High-pressure spraying• Measuring and dispensingMaterials that can be handled• Oils• Surface coatings• Paints• ChemicalsConstructed from either stainless steel or carbon steel, these robust pumps offer enhanced durability and are well-suited to various operational environments.
