AODD Pumps are designed to increase efficiency and decrease pump maintenance for businesses in the coatings industry.
In today’s highly competitive paint and coatings environment, manufacturers must more than ever control costs and eliminate production downtime. Air-operated double-diaphragm (AODD) pumps remain an essential component in the manufacture of paint and coatings. Increased demand for paint and coating material in developing markets, combined with a rebound in requirements in North American, have placed increasing operation challenges on paint manufacturers. More than ever, it remains essential that manufacturers choose an AODD that eliminates or reduces downtime while reducing overall air and energy usage.
Increasing efficiency
Whether used in the transfer of intermediate materials, pigments, or finished coating materials, air-efficient AODD pumps can significantly reduce operating cost. Consider, for example, All-Flo’s 2" model, the A200. The A200 offers increased flow rates of up to 190 gpm while reducing air consumption by up to 40%. Such efficiency and transfer gains result in very practical benefits, such as loading a 10,000-gallon tank more quickly while using less air.
Decreasing maintenance
Although maintenance is a necessary part of operations in the coatings industry, All-Flo’s simple design reduces maintenance costs since there are significantly fewer parts in the overall design. In fact, All-Flo’s air valve contains only three moving parts. With fewer parts to service or replace, your operations can resume faster than usual.
