General
Tapflo pumps are some of the most versatile pumps on the market today. They can be
used in a variety of installations in numerous applications. Thanks to the simple operating principle, with a compact and reliable design, Tapflo diaphragm pumps meet the
demands of heavy industrial duties.
Various liquids
Chemical industry
Transfer of all kind of acids, alkalis, alcohol,
solvents and shear sensitive products such as
latex and emulsions, as well as chemical waste
products.
Surface conditioning
Transport of chemicals from storage tanks,
containers and baths, for example in pickling,
galvanization and degreasing. Handling of
waste products.
Water treatment
Pumping samples, dosing acids and alkalis for
pH-control. Transfer of flocculent, suspensions,
chemical reagents and sludges. The pumps are
resistant to hydrochloric acid and ferric chlorite,
plus many others.
General
Various liquids...
Hygienic applications
Transfer of food products like soup, cream,
syrup, milk, yoghurt, flavours, spirit, chocolate,
dough, creams, paste, perfumes and toothpaste.
Service applications as spraying of cleaning
liquid in CIP systems.
Mechanical industry
Handling of oil, fats, lubricants, cooling liquids,
washing and cleaning liquids, solvents and
waste products etc.
General
The Tapflo diaphragm pump is driven by compressed air. The two diaphragms, connected by a diaphragm shaft, are pushed back and forth by alternately pressurising the
air chambers behind the diaphragms using an automatically cycling air valve system.
Suction (1)
One diaphragm creates a
suction action when being
pulled back from the housing.
Pumped liquid
Compressed air
First cycle...
Second cycle...
Discharge (2)
The other diaphragm simultaneously transmits the air
pressure to the liquid in the
housing, pushing it towards
the discharge port.
During each cycle the air
pressure on the back of the
discharging diaphragm is
equal to the head pressure
on the liquid side. Tapflo
diaphragm pumps can therefore be operated against a
closed discharge valve with
no adverse affect to the life
of the diaphragms.
Thanks to the simple operating principle, with a compact and reliable construction,
Tapflo diaphragm pumps meet the demands of heavy industrial duties. Below are some
of the major benefits of Tapflo pumps.

General
Metal series
The series consists of 5 sizes covering the capcity range between 0 and 420 l/min. Materials
available are aluminium, cast iron, stainless
steel and PTFE coated aluminium. The compact,
smooth and simple design is common for all
different sizes.
Sanitary series
General
Three major components are especially vital for the function of the pump...
3
1
Tapflo pumps made from polyethylene (PE) or PTFE are suitable for handling almost any
kind of liquid whether it is viscous, chemically aggressive or with solids.
Polyethylene pumps
Polyethylene (PE HD) has a superior wear resistance which is 6 7 times better than
for polypropylene (PP). This fact makes the pump suitable for handling abrasive slurries
etc. PE is resistant to most kind of aggressive chemicals such as concentrated acids and
alkalis. Maximum liquid temperature is 70C.
PTFE pumps
PTFE (virgin polytetrafluorethylene) is a thermoplastic polymer with superior chemical
resistance. The PTFE pump will handle even the most aggressive acids, for instance
concentrated nitric acid. Maximum liquid temperature is up to 100C.
10
Few components and a simple but ingenious design is peculiar for all Tapflo pumps.
It is a compact pump, easy and quick to maintain, keeping your service costs and
process down time to a minimum.

1. Flexible installations
The connections may be
rotated 180. Simply turn the
connections to fit your piping
system. Threaded BSP or NPT
plastic connections is standard,
AISI 316 or other connections
types are also available.
3
2. Solid and strong
The pump body is machined
from solid PE or PTFE. The
solid design will stand against
mechanical forces as well as
aggressive chemicals.
3. Chemical design
The compound diaphragm
has a completely smooth
liquid side surface and with
no metal in contact with the
liquid. Ideal for a safe chemi
cal handling.

The installation
As this station works self-regulating, an additional device for regulating the flow quantity is not
necessary. Just mount it to the filterpress, connect
it ready. Even the pressure regulator for the air
supply is included. For monitoring the filling-level
of the filterpress, stroke sensors and stroke counters
are available.

For transfer of pH-neutral fluids, both thin, thick, solid laden or abrasive. The aluminium
and cast iron pumps are found in most fields; work shop and paint industries, purifying
plants etc., to mention only a few.
Made in lost wax cast method, ensuring great accuracy and finish. The stainless steel
pumps combine great mechanical strength with good chemical features. AISI 316 is
resistant to aggressive liquids like nitric acid and sodium hydroxide. The centre unit,
which is not in contact with liquid, is made from corrosive resistant polypropylene (PP)
as standard (other materials upon request).

The connections may be rotated 180.
Simply turn the conn ections to fit
your piping system. Threaded BSP or
NPT connections is standard. Twin
connections are also available.
2. Powerful valveseats
The valve seat is under constant stress
from the movement of the valve ball.
To obtain the best wear resistant, the
integrated seat is made from AISI 316

In case of a diaphragm break, the unit will stop the pump and turn on the horn or give signal to PLC.
Leaking liquid in case of a diaphragm break, will remain in the chamber between the wetted diaphragm
and the backup diaphragm. This system grants for a high level of safety in plants where liquid is never
allowed to leak.
The Guardian system monitors the pressure in the void cavities of a barrier pump, pipe
work, tank or vessel. If the pressure in the void increases above the set point due to
either a media breach or mechanical failure, the system will issue a signal that can be
utilised to sound an alarm, stop the pump, etc.
The diaphragm is PTFE faced as per the fluid diaphragms of the pump, therefore is completely tolerant of most media and is therefore much safer than conventional systems.
Some of the advantages are;
Prevents & contains spills associated with diaphragm failure in air driven pumps
Continually monitors barrier pumps, tanks, vessels & pipe work
for leaks
Inherently safer than other barrier systems on the market

The Pneumix...
was predominantly de
veloped for the paint and
ink industry where most raw
materials in drums or containers settle out over time and
need to be mixed or blended
prior to use. This usually
means rolling, shaking or
pumping to a mixing vessel;
that adds time, waste, mess
and expense.
Increased productivity and reduced waste with Pneumix
The Pneumix utilises the container the product arrives in to mix and dispense and
simply fits securely in the vessels fill hole. Increasing productivity by reducing waste
and further product handling.
Some benefits with the Pneumix...
Eliminates problems with conventional mixing
No need for pumping to mixing vessel
No paddles or rotating blades
Fully controllable pneumatic operation and control
No moving parts utilises pump power to mix & dispense
Variable agitation
No shear
No air entrainment
Closed vessel mixing system
Reduced environmental exposure
Increased product life and performance
Suits all containers up to 1000 litre IBC
No modification to vessel
Available in wide range of materials

The powder transfer pump will handle different types of process powders, with specific
weight from 80 up to 720 kg/m3 dry weight. Generally, if the powder does not clump
together when you squeeze it in your hand, the Tapflo powder transfer pump can be
used successfully. A few examples of common powders are sintering powder, carbon
black, resins and silicones.
No start up problems

The powder transfer pump is based on a standard Tapflo air operated diaphragm pump.
The powder is transferred by means of two diaphragms, which alternately prime the
powder from the container in the first cycle and discharge to the process in the second
cycle.
Capacity
The capacity of the powder transfer is extremely different from one powder to another,
depending on the consistency and weight etc. Fore more specific information about
the capacity in your application, please contact your local Tapflo distributor, or fill out
the inquiry form on our website www.tapflo.com.
Safe in EX-zones
The powder transfer pumps are ATEX marked, allowing use in explosion hazardous
zones (group IIG/IID, category 2).
The powder transfer pumps are modified from the standard PTFE coated aluminium
series. The PTFE coating enables an efficient transfer through the pump, with least possible resistance.
