      • Almatec Plastic AODD Pumps with Solid Design

      • An important design element for Almatec air-operated double-diaphragm (AODD) pumps is a solid-block construction, which is necessary to support the weight of an oscillating pump. With this design, the individual components can be designed so that the required wall thicknesses are arranged where needed. The high-static mass leads to a smooth operation and eliminates the need for unnecessary external metal parts that otherwise would be used for reinforcement. The mechanical machining of a solid plastic block is also economical thanks to modern CNC technology that enables tight tolerances to be achieved. In all Almatec plastic pumps, only German-produced virgin PE and PTFE is used.

              • AODD Pumps for High-Pressure Applications

                Almatec® AHD and AHS Series Air-Operated Double-Diaphragm (AODD) Pumps have been specially designed to provide a safe operation in high-pressure applications up to 15 bar (218 psig). A typical application of these pumps is filter press feeding

                嘘声和系列泵利用内部压力ter while featuring the well-known Almatec ring-tightening structure. The “D” in AHD stands for Duplex, which means the reinforcement of the drive pressure is more than 2:1 by the internal pressure boosting stage. The maximum drive pressure of 7 bar (100 psig) allows the AHD to build up discharge pressures up to 15 bar (218 psig). AHD Series pumps are available in three sizes (AHD 15, 25 and 40) with maximum capacities of 4, 10 and 20 m3 /h (17, 44 and 87 gpm).

                The AHS Series pump, which does not include an internal pressure booster, features an extremely rugged housing making it suitable for higher discharge pressures. The “S” in AHS stands from Simplex, meaning the drive pressure is transferred to the medium in a ration of 1:1. This makes the AHS Series ideal for a wide variety of applications under heavy load conditions – from low discharge pressures to high-pressure applications up to 15 bar (218 psig). Due to the 1:1 ratio of the drive/discharge pressure, the corresponding air pressure has to be supplied from the compressor itself or an external pressure booster, also offered by Almatec. AHS pumps are available in two sizes (AHS 15 and 25).

                Users who need a high discharge pressure of 15 bar (218 psig) – no matter whether it is with an AHD pump with internal pressure transmission or an AHS pump that achieves the discharge pressure by means of an external booster – can do so with peace of mind that the pump has been specially designed for such pressure ranges and does not have to be held together by external reinforcements.

            • Almatec Active Pulsation Damper - For a Uniform Flow

            • Due to their design, pumps with oscillating action produce a pulsating flow. While the double-acting design of the Almatec® E-Series pump with a direct pneumatic drive already greatly reduces pulsation, a self-regulating pulsation damper must be installed on the delivery side of the pump in order to obtain a virtually uniform flow.

              The dampers are self-regulating. Like in Almatec pumps, the diaphragm merely serves as a barrier between the product and the air chamber and is, therefore, always without pressure. If the pressure on the product side drops due to changes in the operating conditions, the pressure on the other side of the diaphragm will decline accordingly. As soon as the pressure on the product side rises, the pressure on the other side will increase as well. This automatic adjustment optimizes the diaphragm setting and ensures a consistently good damping effect.

                • Almatec Screw-On Dampers

                • Easy and Effective

                  Almatec® screw-on pulsation dampers represent the latest generation of active pulsation dampers and can be simply screwed onto the pump. Additional connecting elements are not required. Screw-on pulsation dampers are available for E-Series and FUTUR Series pumps.

                  The E-Series ET damper is also available in a flange version. Appropriate size pulsation dampers are available for every pump. The wetted material is PE or PTFE (both also conductive). Damper heads are made of polyamide or PE conductive. As with Almatec pumps, the recessed housing bolts are tightened against a ring. The exterior is completely free of metal.

                  The FUTUR Series damper model D is also available in a stainless-steel version for the FUTUR S Series pumps.

The pumps necessary for these applications must be manufactured with abrasion-resistant material. This is why the material in the solid Almatec E-Series AODD pump, abrasion-resistant polyethylene (PE). Trials based on the sand-slurry method have confirmed that the abrasion resistance of the PE is seven times higher than that of polypropylene (PP) — which is often used as a material in pumps — and 1.6 times higher than that of steel. It is also more wear-resistant than, for example, cast iron or aluminum.

                  • Hygienic

                  • OFFERING THE EFFICIENCY, SAFETY AND CLEANLINESS NEEDED TO PUMP AN ARRAY OF PRODUCTS IN HYGIENIC APPLICATIONS.

                    Almatec® BIOCOR pumps have been specifically designed to meet and exceed the strictest international regulatory guidelines for the biopharma and food and beverage industries. These pumps comply with EHEDG, EC1935, ATEX, FDA and USP Class VI standards, and feature high surface quality, the ability to trace the materials used, as well as clean-in-place (CIP) and sanitize-in-place (SIP) capabilities.

                    Almatec MM Series pumps have also been specially developed for the food and beverage industry. These pumps were developed with cleanable surfaces and easy manual cleaning but without a sophisticated and expensive EHEDG design. The MM Series pump meets market requirements thanks to its different hygienic manifold options, a choice of surface quality of 0,8 µm or 3,2 µm, and material conformity to FDA, EC1935 and ATEX.

                  • Paint and Coatings

                  • IDEAL CHOICE TO MAXIMUM YOUR PERFORMANCE, EFFICIENCY AND CONTAINMENT IN CRITICAL PRODUCTION APPLICATIONS .

                    Almatec®AODD泵适合excela wide range of applications in the paint and coatings market thanks to a variety of industry-leading features and benefits.

                    When speaking about specific applications, CHEMICOR Series metal pumps are ideally suited to transfer paint and varnish because they are ATEX compliant. For UV varnishes, Almatec E-Series pumps manufactured of conductive plastic are available. Due to the high pressures encountered in painting systems where there is only one pump as a central supply, the Almatec high-pressure pump in stainless steel (AH-S) is an ideal solution. When using these pumps, the time required to clean the pump when changing colors is just as low as the amount of cleaning agent needed for cleaning.

                    The process chemicals used in the surface technology industry – which range from highly concentrated acids and bases to abrasive slurries – place a heavy amount of strain on materials and equipment. Therefore, these unique applications require innovative Almatec pumps. These pumps include Almatec E-Series pumps, which are used to transfer etching agents as well as grinding and drilling emulsions. In addition, Almatec AHD/AHS Series high-pressure pumps are used in filter press applications to compact sludge for disposal purposes.

                  • Pulp & Paper

                  • DELIVERING SUPERIOR EFFICIENCY AND FLOW WHILE REDUCING ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT.

                    In the paper and printing industries, AODD pumps are primarily used to transport glues and printing inks. In many cases, an average-sized pump manufactured from polyethylene (PE) can be used for a variety of glue applications. This includes the innovative Almatec® E-Series Pump.

                    When choosing a pump to transfer printing inks, Almatec pumps that feature a draining system offer numerous advantages. Because the colors must not be allowed to mix during a color change, the draining system allows the pump and pipeline to be emptied without disassembly. The draining system also allows the color to flow back into the supply container (saving money). In addition, this design feature also reduces the amount of cleaning agent and solvent required to clean the pump, thereby reducing the impact on the environment.

                  • Water Treatment

                  • DESIGNED TO INTEGRATE PERFECTLY INTO YOUR WATER-TREATMENT PROCESS TO SIMPLIFY OPERATIONS AND MAXIMIZE OUTPUT IN THE MOST EFFICIENT MANNER POSSIBLE.

                    In industrial water treatment applications, Almatec® AODD pumps are ideally suited for a variety of tasks, including taking samples for analysis around the clock, wastewater neutralization and feeding filter presses with sludge. Almatec E-Series, CHEMICOR Series and CXM Series pumps are primarily used for sample taking and the proportioning of neutralization chemicals. Additionally, Almatec high-pressure pumps are primarily used for filter-press feeding thanks to the pumps' ability to operate over the entire range of flow rates without the risk of overpressure while automatically adjusting the pressure/quantity.

                      Since its founding in 1984, Almatec Maschinenbau GmbH has concentrated on continuously defining the current state-of-the-art in pneumatic (air-operated) diaphragm pumps via extensive product enhancements and innovations.

                      2009 E-Series
                      Based on the extensive experience with the A-Series pumps, the E-Series plastic air-operated double diaphragm (AODD) pump was developed in 2009. The result and the name capture the spirit of Almatec's vision: E = economic, efficient, ecological.

                    • The Heart of Air-Operated Double Diaphragm Pumps

                      The surface of the Almatec diaphragms is smooth and not interrupted by any seals whatsover. Due to the integrated metal core, they do not require diaphragm discs that can frequently gives rise to leaks and attract dirt. The diaphragms are produced in priming position; this simplifies assembly and almost completely eliminates the dead space on the air side, since the inner side of the diaphragms rests against the central housing in the limit position, thus optimizing efficiency and reducing air consumption.
                    • Materials

                    • Solid Body Design for Strength and Smooth Operation



                      An important construction element in Almatec air-operated diaphragm pumps is the solid body design. Only a solid plastic body can support the necessary weight for an oscillating pump. The individual components can be designed, so that the required wall thicknesses are arranged where they are needed. The mechanical machining of a solid plastic block is economical thanks modern CNC technology, enabling tight tolerances to be achieved. The high static mass leads to smooth operation and eliminates the need for unnecessary external metal parts that otherwise be used for reinforcement. In all Almatec pumps, only virgin PE and PTFE, produced in Germany, are used.
                    • Air Control System

                    • Zero Maintenance with the PERSWING P® air control system



                      The purpose of the pneumatic diaphragm pump air control system is to ensure automatic operation that is indirectly controlled by the movement of the diaphragms. Reaching its final point, the stroke reverses automatically and the cycle of medium being drawn in by one diaphragm and being displaced by the other is repeated by the opposite side of the pump.
