Design

The diaphragm pump consists of a
pump body and a drive motor in casing.
The diaphragm pump is also available
as a special "MPC 104 Tp build-in model"
without casing.
The pump body consists of an eccentric
shaft, four connecting rod and four pump
heads.
Each pump head contains a diaphragm
and two work valves. Both pump heads
are arranged in 180° opposite each other.
The pump heads are driven via the motor
and the eccentric shaft with a connecting
rod.
The suction (2) and the exhaust connec-
tion (1) are located directly on the pump
head and are designed as hose nipple
for an inner hose diameter of 8 mm.
The pump is electrically connected via the
ICE connection cable (3).
3.2

Principle of Operation

Motor, eccentric shaft and connecting rod set the diaphragms in stroke movement. This
changes the size of the space between the diaphragms and pump head (pump chamber).
Increasing the size of the pump chamber opens the inlet valve while the outlet valve is clo-
sed (gases are sucked in).
Decreasing the size of the pump chamber switches the valves over and ejects the gas
through the exhaust outlet.
The valves are actuated by the gas being pumped.
A large proportion of condensate in the diaphragm pump minimizes the suction performance
and the ultimate pressure that can be achieved.
3.3

Areas of Application

ILMVAC diaphragm pumps are intended for:
• Pumping and compressing neutral and aggressive gases and vapours.
• Generating a vacuum down to an ultimate pressure < 2 mbar.
• Use in physical and chemical laboratories in trade and industry.
• Use for vacuum filtration, vacuum distillation and vacuum drying, and other vacuum tech-
nology applications.
• These can also be used in stripped down form for OEM applications (for example without
a casing).
