Pulsation Dampener
Europe’s Largest Diaphragm Pump Manufacturer
Our ATEX HDPE/PTFE Diaphragm Pump is manufactured from solid block conductive (carbon-filled) plastic, making it well-suited for use within equipment group IIG (gas) and Cat 2 (Zone 1).
These pumps feature a solid block design, with diaphragms available in PTFE (with conductive back) or EPDM (conductive).
This self-priming pump is capable of handling solids up to 100mm and viscosities up to 20,000 cPs, and ensures optimal protection in ATEX Zones 1 and 2.
Typical applications for the ATEX HDPE/PTFE Diaphragm Pump include:
| Specification | Pump Size TXR09 – TX800 |
|---|---|
| Max Capacity (l/min) | 820 |
| Volume per Stroke (ml) | 5,240 |
| Max Pressure (Bar) | 8 |
| Max Solids (ø in mm) | 15 |
| Max Suction Lift Dry (m) | 5 |
| Max Suction Lift Wet (m) | 9 |
| Max Temperature PE (°C) | 70 |
| Max Temperature PTFE (°C) | 100 |

Built in accordance with ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU (ATEX 114), our ATEX HDPE/PTFE Diaphragm Pumps are designed using conductive, carbon-filled HDPE or PTFE which prevents electrostatic build-up. Additionally, these pumps include grounding points (earthing lugs) for safe installation.
Our ATEX-Rated Plastic Pumps are classified as the TX Series being suited to Zone 1.
While preventing electrostatic charge buildup, these pumps are also chemically resistant to acids, alkalis, and solvents, allowing their use in environments where metallic pumps may corrode.
Yes. Aluminium and Cast Iron Diaphragm Pumps are ATEX-approved for Zone 1, while standard Stainless Steel is not ATEX-compliant by default. Special conductive Stainless Steel variants (TX and TZ Series) can be certified for use in Zone 1
Yes. All plastic components used are made from carbon-filled conductive HDPE or PTFE, with the air valve, diaphragms, and centre housing all ATEX-compliant. Additionally, a grounding connection is always provided and must be installed for safe operation.
