Diaphragm position control cuts pump downtime

Kel-Cell series industrial pumps now feature patented diaphragm position control technology as standard with Buna-n and Viton diaphragms.

Kel-Cell series industrial pumps from Wanner Engineering now feature patented diaphragm position control (DPC) technology as standard, with Buna-n and Viton diaphragms.

This technology allows Kel-Cell pumps to control the position of the diaphragm under a variety of adverse inlet conditions to provide an extremely high degree of diaphragm rupture protection.

DPC technology is available on new D/G/M03 Kel-Cell pumps.

This technology eliminates the possibility of an incidental diaphragm failure caused by adverse system conditions that often result in excessive vacuum conditions on the pump inlet.

Formerly, such adverse conditions were responsible for 80% of diaphragm failures.

These pumps provide maximum capacity of 11.4 litre/min at 1750rev/min, maximum inlet pressure to 17.2bar and pressure variable to 82.7bar.

They can be close-coupled to a NEMA 56c faced or metric motors, or belt-driven, whichever best meets the unique needs of a given user.

Additionally, these pumps are self-priming, can run dry without damage, and are ideal for pumping clean fluids as well as nonlubricating fluids, abrasive solutions, caustics, corrosives, high-temperature fluids and other challenging liquids.
