6 Essential Pump Types: 1. #Diaphragm Pump ⤷Uses flexible diaphragm to separate chambers. ⤷Suitable for corrosive, abrasive, or viscous fluids. ⤷Common in chemical processing and water treatment. 2. #Axial Piston Pump ⤷Uses pistons moving axially to create flow. ⤷High-pressure, high-efficiency, and compact design. ⤷Ideal for hydraulic systems, heavy machinery, and aerospace. 3. #Centrifugal Pump ⤷Impeller accelerates fluid, converting KE to PE. ⤷Low-viscosity, high-flow applications (water, oil, chemicals). ⤷Wastewater treatment, HVAC, and industrial processes. 4. #Gear Pump ⤷Interlocking gears create positive displacement. ⤷Suitable for high-viscosity, high-pressure applications. ⤷Chemical processing, oil & gas, and power generation. 5. #Peristaltic Pump ⤷Rotating rollers compress and move fluid through tubing. ⤷Gentle handling, low shear, and precise flow control. ⤷Biotech, pharma, food processing, and medical devices. 6. #Gerotor Pump ⤷Rotor and stator combination creates pumping action. ⤷Compact, low-noise, and high-efficiency design. ⤷Automotive, aerospace, and industrial hydraulic systems.
