Now available through Prestige Pumps Ltd is the complete range of Flotronic diaphragms to suit every application.
Flotronic Pumps lead the way in diaphragm technology through continued and extensive research, development and testing. Flotronic introduced a PTFE faced rubber backed bonded diaphragm to the market in 1982, and have continued with this concept to the present day. The key to a successful PTFE diaphragm is a very short stroking action. Flotronic are able to use a shorter stroke enabling us to achieve a multi-million cycle 'norm'. Our standard diaphragm has a Virgin PTFE face, bonded to Nitrile Rubber, which covers the majority of applications.
Virgin PTFE - Nitrile backed
Option code T (6th digit in pump code). The perfect
diaphragm, flexible yet corrosion resistant and as a one
piece Virgin PTFE faced diaphragm, achieves multimillion
cycles as standard. Temperature range: -15°C
to 100°C (5°F to 212°F)
Virgin PTFE - EPDM backed
Option H in pump code (6th digit in pump code).
Virgin PTFE faced with EPDM backing . Suitable for
high temperature applications, and applications where
EPDM backing is preferred. Temperature range: -15°C
to 135°C (5°F to 275°F)
Ultimate PTFE - Nitrile backed
Option code U (6th digit in pump code). A diaphragm
for particularly difficult applications where PTFE is
required but virgin lifetime is limited, e.g permeation.
The ULTIMATE diaphragm range is available for all
styles of Flotronic pump. Temperature range: -15°C
to 100°C (5°F to 212°F)
Anti-static PTFE - Nitrile backed
Option code A (6th digit in pump code). A diaphragm
for ATEX applications ensuring 'in the zone'
maintenance is still allowed. Temperature range: -15°C
to 100°C (5°F to 212°F)
Anti-static PTFE - EPDM backed
Option code A (6th digit in pump code).
A diaphragm for ATEX applications ensuring 'in the
zone' maintenance is still allowed. Suitable for high
temperature applications, and applications where
EPDM backing is preferred.Temperature range: -15°C
to 135°C (5°F to 275°F)
Nitrile
Option code N (6th digit in pump code). For very
high abrasive media applications, with limited chemical
resistance. Temperature range: -10°C to 100°C (14°F
to 212°F)
EPDM
Option code E (6th digit in pump code). Not
commonly used today as superseded by virgin PTFE,
but available upon request. Temperature range: -40°C
to 135°C (-40°F to 275°F)
