Sampling Pump

A pump which is used to monitor air, gases and liquids is called a sampling pump. Sampling pumps are usually portable and developed for specific tasks.

Types of Sampling Pumps:

• Borehole Pump
• Diaphragm Pump
• Peristaltic Pump
• Metering Pump
• Gear Pump
• Drum Pump

Uses and Features of Sampling Pump:

• A sampling pump is used to move abrasive materials, acids, hazardous materials, gasoline, chemicals, coolants, diesel fuel, industrial lubricants or oil.
  
  
• It is also are rated for corrosive, combustible, and high viscous media.
  
  
• It is also used to move ground water, potable water, liquids with solids, and gases or air media.
  
  
• There are adjustable speed sampling pumps which can operate at speeds selected by an operator.
  
  
• The continuous duty sampling pumps maintain performance specifications at 100% duty cycle.
  
  
• Run dry capable sampling pumps can operate without pumped fluid or external lubrication for an extended period of time.
  
  
• Self-priming sampling pumps are designed maintain a vacuum level that is sufficient to draw fluid into the inlet without external assistance.
  
  
• Some sampling pumps include a control panel, battery backup, or suction.
  
  
• Other sampling pumps are corrosion resistant or explosion proof.
  
  
• Hygienic and wash down duty models are also available.
  
  
• Important specifications for sampling pumps are inlet size, discharge size, maximum discharge flow, maximum discharge pressure, and media temperature.
  
  
• Power sources for sampling pumps include AC, DC, compressed air, gasoline, diesel fuel, natural gas, water, steam, hydraulic systems, and solar energy.
  
  
• Manually powered sampling pumps rely upon hand or foot power.
