Tapflo stainless steel pumps have been specially designed for applications in the sanitary field. Two diaphragms are connected to each other by a reciprocating shaft. An air valve supplies compressed air in turn to the two chambers, thus forcing each diaphragm to make a suction or discharge stroke. The air valve does not require lubrication and the internal check valves are maintenance-free. All components contacted by the liquid can be inspected visually. This all ensures safe, reliable and efficient pumping. All components are manufactured in electropolished stainless steel.
