A reduction in the delivery capacity should be allowed for with pumping mediums with high viscosity. The reduction in the delivery capacity for increasing viscosity of the pumping medium can be read from the diagram below. The appropriate pump size can be selected. In the example, a desired delivery capacity of 200 l/min at a viscosity of 2,000 mPas was taken as a basis. The dashed line crosses the interpretation line for the pump at 248 l/min.

In order to achieve optimum delivery of your media, we recommend the use of a pulsation damper. This is ideally installed at the pump’s pressure output. In order to avoid the transfer of pump vibrations to your pipes, we recommend flexible connections (hoses or compensators). These should be installed both on the pressure side and on the suction side.

1) Determine the delivery capacity (l/min) required and the pump height or counter-pressure
(Example: 50 l/min, pump height or counter-pressure 4.0 bar)

2) The compressed air volume and compressed air demand can be read from the pump curve
(Example: 0.38 Nm3/min at 6.0 bar)

Self-priming pump
The compressed air driven double diaphragm pumps from Dellmeco are dry self-priming. With a full suction line, a suction height of up to 8.0 m WS can be achieved. The suction height varies depending on the diaphragm material and the pumping medium.

Submerged pump
The compressed air driven double diaphragm pumps from Dellmeco can be operated submerged in pumping medium. The pump materials should be checked before submerging the pump. The exhaust from the air motor must be channelled into the atmosphere via a separate exhaust air pipe above the liquid level.

Pump with preliminary pressure
The compressed air driven double diaphragm pumps from Dellmeco can be operated with a suction side preliminary pressure of max. 0.6 bar. In order to prevent unwanted volume flow, a shut-off valve should be installed in the suction line.
