Sanitary Air-Operated Diaphragm Pump Cutaway, Stainless

Model: 278-180SS

DAC Worldwide’s Sanitary Air-Operated Diaphragm Pump Cutaway, Stainless (278-180SS) depicts a sectioned industrial air-operated, double-diaphragm pump (AODD) cutaway that supports realistic classroom training in the operation, construction, and maintenance of this common process pump used in many industries.

Often employed in temporary, back-up, or emergency applications, these versatile and portable pumps are also useful in processes incorporating slurries and sludges, as well as abrasive, corrosive, and sanitary liquids. Used extensively in the food and beverage industries, they are also often found in chemical plant and oil & gas applications due to the performance, self-priming abilities, and suction-lift abilities.

Selected and assembled to support introductory process operations and maintenance training programs, this real-world learning solution provides the same utility found in equipment used on-the-job. The full-size, fully-detailed example of an actual real-world diaphragm pump gives learners a first-hand view into a component that is found in countless applications worldwide. All of the pump’s components have been retained, allowing for a thorough, one-of-a-kind training experience using these common pieces of process equipment.

DAC Worldwide’s Cutaways Enhance Training with Hands-On Industrial Components

The Sanitary Air-Operated Diaphragm Pump Cutaway, Stainless provides a realistic training introduction to air-operated diaphragm pump components. The pump’s components are industrial-grade made by leading manufacturers, mimicking what students might encounter on-the-job for industrial relevancy.

Carefully-planned cutaway areas and color-coding combine to showcase the internal configuration of the pump. Seal features, hardware locations, and bearings are retained, allowing for use in basic maintenance-related training. This realistic training aid will make introductory courses in pump maintenance and operation more productive, realistic, and memorable.

This specialty diaphragm pump cutaway will enhance both general and plant-specific operations and maintenance training programs. Additionally, the equipment used within the trainer is cleaned, primed, and painted using a high-endurance urethane coating, providing durability to stand up to frequent use.
