2. Diaphragm pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diaphragm_pump

   The basic working principle of an air-operated double diaphragm pump. Cross-section sketch of diaphragm fuel pump Air-operated double diaphragm pump. A diaphragm pump (also known as a Membrane pump) is a positive displacement pump that uses a combination of the reciprocating action of a rubber, thermoplastic or teflon diaphragm and suitable valves on either side of the diaphragm (check valve ...

3. Diaphragm (mechanical device) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diaphragm_(mechanical_device)

   A diaphragm pressure tank is a tank which has pressurant sealed inside on one side of the diaphragm. It is favored in certain applications due to its high durability and reliability. This comes with a downside, as the vessel needs to be replaced in the case of a rupture of the diaphragm. [2] Diaphragm tanks are used to store hypergolic ...

4. Comparison of pumps - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_pumps

   Different types of pumps are suitable for different applications, for example: a pump's maximum lift height also determines the applications it can be used for. Low-lift pumps are only suitable for the pumping of surface water (e.g., irrigation, drainage of lands, ...), while high-lift pumps allow deep water pumping (e.g., potable water pumping ...

5. Reciprocating pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reciprocating_pump

   Single-acting reciprocating pump consists of a piston of which only one side engages the fluid being displaced. [2] The simplest example would be a syringe. Double-acting reciprocating pump engage with both sides of the piston, each stroke of the piston carries out both suction and expulsion at the same time. Thus it require two inflow pipes ...

6. Hand pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hand_pump

   Diaphragm pumps have the advantage that they pump relatively lightly due to the lack of pulling rods and are corrosion resistant. Their disadvantage is that they need a specific length of tubing and high quality rubber diaphragms, which are costly and are relatively inefficient due to the extra work needed to deform the diaphragm.

7. Rotary vane pump - Wikipedia
