  • Page 108 Fertilizer Model 5900 M0307-01 Diaphragm pumps are reciprocating positive displacement pumps. Reciprocating movement of the diaphragms expands and compresses volumes. This mechanical work and change in volumes cause transfer of liquid. The main difference between a diaphragm pump and other types of reciprocating pumps, is the presence of a flexible separating component (the diaphragm) between mechanical parts and pumped liquid circuit.
