3” EXP Metallic Air Operated Diaphragm Pump
The ARO 3” EXP Metallic Air Operated Diaphragm Pump is an air-operated double diaphragm (AODD) pump engineered for reliable, self-priming fluid transfer in demanding industrial environments. Backed by Zafco’s industrial supply expertise, it’s built for durability, performance, and dependable results on the job — contact Zafco at zafco.ca for pricing and availability.
The 3” EXP Metallic Air Operated Diaphragm Pump from ARO is an air-operated double diaphragm (AODD) pump engineered for reliable, self-priming fluid transfer in demanding industrial environments. ARO EXP 3” metallic diaphragm pumps achieve flow rates of up to 275 GPM (1040.9 LPM) and offer a wide array of material and porting configurations. These pumps are often used for transfer, filling, recirculation and batching in Ceramic, Paint, Oil & Gas, Chemical and Petrochemical markets.
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.
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.
