The 1 1/2” EXP Metallic Air Operated Diaphragm Pump from ARO is a rugged air-operated double diaphragm pump built to move fluids efficiently without electricity, making it a go-to choice for plants that need explosion-proof, self-priming transfer solutions. ARO 1-1/2” metallic diaphragm pumps achieve flow rates of up to 123.1 GPM (465.9 LPM) and offer a wide array of material and porting configurations. These pumps are often used for transfer, filling, recirculation and batching in Paint, Oil & Gas, Chemical and Petrochemical markets.
Air operated double diaphragm pumps use compressed air rather than electric motors to alternately flex two diaphragms, drawing fluid in on one stroke and discharging it on the next. This design makes them inherently explosion-proof, self-priming, and capable of running dry without damage — a major advantage over centrifugal or electric transfer pumps in chemical plants, paint booths, food processing lines, and wastewater applications.
Because stroke speed is controlled directly by air supply, output can be adjusted simply by opening or closing the air valve, giving operators stall-proof, variable-flow control with no risk of overheating a motor. Submersible operation, dry-run tolerance, and tolerance for abrasive or viscous media make this pump family a practical fit anywhere a dependable transfer pump is needed on a plant floor.
