A plunger pump is a type of positive displacement pump. It is an industrial pump that is used to pressurize liquid media. These pumps can be used in a wide variety of applications, including cleaning, drainage, and reverse osmosis.
The pumps are designed to handle high pressures, up to 3,000 bar. They are suitable for industrial applications and are often found in wastewater treatment.
Some of the common applications for plunger pumps are water blasting, car wash, and sewer jetting. However, these units can also be used in reverse osmosis and long-distance irrigation.
Plunger pumps can be installed on many different power sources, including electric motors, gas engines, and marine-type batteries. Battery-powered units may help to reduce maintenance and repair costs, while also limiting fuel consumption.
High-pressure plunger pumps are available in different models to suit specific applications. Some units can flow hundreds of gallons of water per minute, while others can flow less than a gallon.
Plunger pumps are driven by a crankshaft. A crankshaft is mounted on adjustable feet, allowing the unit to withstand vibrations. The design also features a stainless steel cover to minimize noise.
Most of the components of a plunger pump are symmetrically balanced and are constructed from aluminum. Cast iron heads are available for extra strength in high pressure environments. Brass nickel-plated heads are available for additional durability.
Plunger pumps can be used for a range of liquid media, including water, oil, hot oils, and detergent slurries. They are suitable for low-performance cleaning processes and high-performance process industries.
