K-TECH Make Electronically Operated Double Diaphragm (EODD) pump combines the robust, leak-free design of a traditional air-operated diaphragm pump with the energy efficiency and precise control of an electric motor.
Applications
K-TECH EODD pumps are incredibly versatile because they can handle abrasive, shear-sensitive, and highly viscous fluids without damaging the product or the pump itself.
Chemical Processing: Transferring corrosive acids, aggressive solvents, polymers, and chemical waste.
Food and Beverage: Handling shear-sensitive products like chocolate, creams, sauces, syrups, and dairy products where product integrity is crucial.
Paints, Inks, and Coatings: Pumping highly viscous liquids, resins, pigments, and abrasive slurries.
Wastewater Treatment: Moving municipal and industrial sludge, lime slurries, and flocculants.
Pharmaceutical and Cosmetics: Processing lotions, gels, shampoos, and hygienic ingredients requiring precise dosing and zero contamination.
Benefits
Switching from traditional air-operated pumps (AODD) or other positive displacement pumps to an K-TECH EODD pump offers massive operational advantages:
Massive Energy Savings: K-TECH EODD pumps eliminate the need for compressed air, which is one of the most expensive utilities in a manufacturing plant. Electric drives can reduce energy consumption by up to 50% to 80% compared to air pumps.
Stall Under Pressure: Unlike standard electric pumps that will burn out or damage piping if a valve is closed downstream, an EODD pump can safely stall under pressure without a bypass valve.
Low Pulsation & Precise Control: The electric drive allows for highly accurate flow control, making them excellent for dosing applications and reducing the 'pulsing' effect common in air-driven pumps.
Run-Dry Capability: They can run dry indefinitely without damaging the diaphragms or internal components, eliminating operator error risks.
Seal less Design: Because they don't use mechanical seals, the risk of hazardous or expensive fluid leaks is virtually zero.
