How can we help you?
A gas diaphragm pump is a type of positive displacement pump that uses flexible diaphragms to transfer gases without any contamination or leakage. Thomas offers a wide assortment of customizable gas diaphragm pumps and compressors, characterized by reliable, long lifetimes, compact, lightweight designs, leak-tight air paths, and oil-free, stable performance throughout their lifetimes.
The overall portfolio includes a number of product lines. Flow rates encompass a range from 530 ml/min (0.018 cfm) to 90 l/min (3.2 cfm). The pneumatic performance covers pressures up to 3 bar (43.5 psi) and vacuum levels up to -990 mbar (29.2 in.Hg). These pumps can be fully customized to meet specific industry needs, such as those in medical or environmental applications.

Regarding gas diaphragm pumps, several crucial factors should be taken into account:
1. Gas Compatibility: Ensure that the diaphragm pump you choose is compatible with the type of gas you intend to handle.
2. Flow Rate and Pressure Requirements: Determine the specific flow rate and pressure levels needed for your application. Select a pump that can deliver the required performance within these parameters.
3. Chemical Resistance: If the pumped gas is corrosive or reactive, consider the chemical resistance of the pump materials, which is essential to prevent damage to the pump and maintain its longevity.
4. Safety Features: Check if the pump has safety features such as pressure relief valves or overheat protection to prevent accidents and damage.
5. Noise and Vibration Levels: Consider the noise and vibration levels produced by the pump, especially if it will be used in a noise-sensitive environment.
6. Environmental Considerations: Assess whether the pump meets any environmental regulations or requirements, such as emissions standards or energy efficiency.
Gas diaphragm pumps, also known as membrane pumps, are reciprocating pumps. An eccentric transforms the motor’s rotational movement into an up and downward motion of a con-rod. Attached to the con-rod is a flexible diaphragm.
The linear movement of the con-rod causes the diaphragm to sweep through a clearance volume within the pump head. On the down-stroke air or gas is drawn into the pump head assembly. During the up-stroke, the media is expelled outward.
