SANDPIPER pumps are advancing to deliver superior performance with the introduction of the new, patent-pending SANDPIPER EvolutionX 1″ pump, the first in a series of sizes. This cutting-edge air-operated double diaphragm pump design is the result of over 55 years of industry-leading research and development in pump and fluid dynamics. The EvolutionX represents the highest standard in performance, efficiency, and serviceability. Benefits of the SANDPIPER EvolutionX AODD Pump: Enhanced Convenience: - Faster Service: The EvolutionX reduces service time significantly, requiring only about five minutes to service the air distribution system, compared to an average of 45 minutes for other AODD pumps. - Simplified Maintenance: All wet side nuts and bolts are identical in size and length, eliminating the need for washers and cutting the number of fasteners by 50% compared to previous models. - Easy Access: Airside components can be accessed by removing just four bolts, allowing for quick removal of the cartridge-style main air valve and pilot valve assembly. - Improved Stability: “Stand-off feet” have been added to the inner chambers, enhancing pump stability during disassembly. Superior Performance & Efficiency: - Increased Efficiency: The EvolutionX achieves a remarkable 20% average increase in air efficiency across the performance curve compared to earlier models. - High Flow Rate: This pump boasts the highest flow rate of any 1″ AODD pump available. Increased Versatility: - Adaptable Design: With interchangeable components, the pump is built for a variety of configurations and applications. - Durable Construction: The non-metallic materials are rated for operation up to 125 psi, with ATEX versions available. - Flexible Porting Options: The standard configuration includes a versatile 3-piece manifold with a universal ANSI & ISO flanged connection, allowing users to easily adjust the discharge outlet for multiple directions. Other options include a single-piece end-ported manifold or a dual-ported design for mixing or processing two fluids with one pump. - Versatile Mounting Feet: The mounting feet are compatible with existing SANDPIPER pumps and fit dimensions from various other manufacturers.
