SANDPIPER HEAVY-DUTY BALL PUMP FEATURES
These pumps are enhanced with extended-wear packages and are your optimal solution for abrasive-slurry applications. Features include:
Top-port option: For fluids containing floating solids, suspended solids or entrained gases. The discharge port is positioned above the center of the pump for easier evacuation and less build-up of solid material or gases.
Down-port option: For fluids containing settling solids. The discharge port is positioned below the center of the pump so solids settle in the elbow and are discharged. This helps reduce wear on the diaphragms and associated components
Heavy-duty plunger bushings and actuator pins: Designed to withstand severe applications
Diaphragm wear pads: Installed between the diaphragm and outer diaphragm plate, providing a secondary wear surface that extends the life of the diaphragm
Thicker, more robust wetted castings: Provide extended wear resistance
Heavy-duty weighted check valve balls: Are 30-60% heavier than solid rubber check balls, allowing for more consistent chamber filling
