Our LEAP (Low Energy Air Pump) technology is available across our full Tapflo AODD range, manufactured to suit the simple, efficient design of Tapflo Diaphragm Pumps. This technology uses an indirect system that detects the position of the diaphragm shaft, automatically controlling the diaphragm movement. By reducing internal losses and friction found in standard AODD Pumps, this technology effectively reduces the minimum operating pressure for Diaphragm Pumps, ensuring that businesses using LEAP Technology could save up to 70% on energy consumption. LEAP was designed in-house at Tapflo UK and is now sold globally through the Tapflo network to over 80 countries.

LEAP stands for Low Energy Air Pump, a ground-breaking technology used to reduce energy consumption for businesses running Air-Operated Diaphragm Pumps, allowing them to save up to 70% on energy costs. LEAP has been designed to control the airflow through a Diaphragm Pump using innovative technology developed here in the UK.
What’s the difference between LEAP and a standard AODD Pump?
This technology can be requested on purchase of your Diaphragm Pump, or it can be retrofitted to any Tapflo, as well as several of our competitors’ pumps, by simply swapping the centre section on your pump. Many businesses are looking to meet energy-saving targets, which Tapflo can support you with. There has been a significant increase in demand for this revolutionary technology as businesses release just how much money and energy they could save by switching to LEAP.
For more information and a case example of where our Low Energy Air Pump (LEAP) has been integrated into a production line with control and monitoring from a central control system, visit our case studies section. The valve is also balanced to prevent any issues associated with high-pressure applications.
