Piston Pump and Diaphragm Pump Airless Sprayer Comparison

Pumps There are a lot of discussions on high pressure airless spray pumps in the key markets for airless sprayers, but most people think pumps are the heart of spray equipment and so many people call sprayers pumps. Currently, there are two types of airless sprayer pumps available on the market: plunger pumps and diaphragm pumps. The following is a comparison of two types of pumps: Diaphragm Pump Advantages: 1. Pressure is well controlled throughout the pressure range and is suitable for high volume transport of texture, water, etc. 2. Lower purchase cost of diaphragm pump. Disadvantages: 1, need continuous work; 2, high maintenance costs; 3, more difficult to absorb the material, prone to hole phenomenon - the air into the pump (usually due to pump delivery of paint is not enough power); 4, Can not handle high-viscosity paint (as described above); 5, must be kept clean (small moving parts); 6, requires constant maintenance; 7, hydraulic oil leakage; Piston pump advantages: 1, can easily handle high-viscosity coatings; 2, the nozzle under the same conditions can produce higher pressure atomization better; 3, can be a long time work (24 hours of work); 4, Can withstand the harsh environment; 5, low maintenance costs, easy maintenance; 6, suction easily; 7, only when the required spraying operation. Disadvantages: 1, higher manufacturing costs; 2, the higher cost of purchase Diaphragm pumps use eccentric bearings and piston movement to bring the diaphragm movement and to paint pressure. As the motor rotates, the eccentric bearings also rotate, one end of which rests on the eccentric bearing. Eccentric bearing rotation, so that the piston up and down movement, when the piston down, the diaphragm is depressed, the inlet valve to open the suction. When the piston goes up, the diaphragm is topped, the inlet valve is closed, the outlet valve is open, and the coating is pressed and fed. The whole process of absorbing and generating diaphragm pressure fluctuations require the diaphragm in the high-pressure environment fluctuates more than 1700 times per minute, resulting in easy to damage the diaphragm!
