Ensuring air-operated double diaphragm pumps run consistently and optimally through long cycles is easy with Proportion-Air’s new Pump Controller.
Many AODD pumps operate with just a ball valve and shop air. This can lead to inaccurate, inconsistent material flow. The Pump Controller is a turnkey system that eliminates these issues. Run-dry situations can be avoided, saving diaphragms from unnecessary wear.
The Pump Controller uses the accurate, repeatable performance of a proportional electro-pneumatic regulator coupled with a volume booster for enhanced flow capabilities. A NEMA 4X-rated enclosure protects against unwanted dust, liquids and other particulate matter.
The new unit is easy to install and operate. Offering both automatic and manual modes, the device is connected to the supply line the same way a single regulator would be installed. Automatic mode allows for remote control from a PLC or other controller. A knob on the faceplate provides control in manual mode.
Maximum inlet pressure is 125 psi (8.6 bar), meeting the needs for most of the AODD pumps on the market. The 110 VAC power is compatible with standard outlets.
