A pump system is equipped with a body, a displacement body, a bellows member, an indirect medium, and a diaphragm. The pump system is further equipped with a pressure sensor configured to detect a pressure of the indirect medium in a charge chamber, the charge chamber being formed to include an interior space of the bellows member in the interior of the body. A controller of the pump system determines an abnormality of the diaphragm based on detection values detected by the pressure sensor.

Systems and methods can control a pumping system. Operating characteristics of a driving apparatus are obtained. The driving apparatus is operatively coupled to a pump and operates to effect operation of the pump. Additionally, instructions are provided to an electronic speed controller. In particular, the instructions direct the electronic speed controller to control activity of the driving apparatus.

A pump for pumping a liquid has a pump housing with at least one inlet and at least one outlet. The pump housing has an eccentric rotatable relative to the pump housing by an axle. A deformable element is arranged between the pump housing and the eccentric, and by the deformable element, at least one pump path from the at least one inlet to the at least one outlet is delimited and at least one movable pump path seal is formed, which separates at least one closed pump volume in the pump path. The at least one movable seal is movable in a pump direction from the inlet to the outlet by a movement of the eccentric to pump the fluid along the pump path. The pump has at least one adjustable axial calibrating device, by which the deformable element is clamped in the axial direction parallel to the axle.

A peristaltic pump (1) including a tray, referred to as a pump body (3), which includes a substantially planar surface (32) against which a flexible tube (5) for the passage of fluid is intended to be positioned, and a system (2) for applying force including a plurality of support members (7), such as rollers, and drive elements for moving the support members against the tube in order to deform it against the pump body (3). The pump body (3) is movably mounted relative to the system (2) for applying force between a position spaced apart from the system (2) for applying force, and a position adjacent to the system (2) for applying force. The pump (1) also includes elements (36) for controlling the movement of the pump body (3) relative to the system (2) on the basis of a predetermined magnitude corresponding to the force applied to the tube.

An air pump with an external pressure release valve includes an air pump body, a flow channel seat and at least one air valve. The air pump body comprises a driving motor and at least one air bag group for generating air flow. The flow channel seat includes an airflow channel and a pressure release channel communicated with the airflow channel and extending to any side wall surface of the flow channel seat. The side wall surface includes an installation hole of an outlet of the pressure release channel. The installation hole includes a pressure release assembly arranged inside the pressure release channel. Because the air pump includes the pressure release channel, and the pressure release channel extends to any side wall surface, the air pump is respectively connected with different objects to be inflated, meanwhile, an assembler can more easily adjust the output air pressure of each air pump.

A diaphragm pump includes: a housing; a diaphragm; an actuator configured to reciprocate the diaphragm based on a previously selected operation mode out of a plurality of operation modes; a setting device configured to set and send an operation mode and operating conditions; and a control device configured to receive the operation mode and the operating conditions from the setting device, and control the actuator to move the diaphragm forward or backward in accordance with the operation mode and the operating conditions received from the setting device. The plurality of operation modes include a normal operation mode in which the actuator is driven to perform a series of a suction process to suck a fluid and a discharge process to discharge the sucked fluid, and a partial operation mode in which the actuator is driven to perform the series of processes partially.

A peristaltic pumphead is provided that has a pumping chamber within which is disposed a pressing element for exerting a peristaltic action on a tube extending within the pumping chamber, and an auxiliary chamber which in normal use is a dry chamber. The pumping chamber and the auxiliary chamber are arranged in fluid communication such that liquid which escapes from the tube into the pumping chamber flows from the pumping chamber into the auxiliary chamber.

A pump arrangement for powering a pump in providing a controlled volume of water to a drip nozzle in a drip-feed humidifier. The pump arrangement includes: a pump having a solenoid; a processing unit; and a power supply electrically connected to the solenoid via a switch which is controlled by the processing unit. The power supply is structured to supply power to the solenoid via the switch. The processing unit is programmed to modulate the power provided to the solenoid via the switch such that the power is supplied to the solenoid according to a power profile for each actuation of the solenoid. The power profile includes: an initial portion which increases at a first overall rate, an intermediate portion which increases at a second overall rate different than the first overall rate, and a final portion which decreases at a third overall rate.

A fluid filtration assembly includes a filter housing having a first end for fluid connection with a fluid storage vessel. A filter cartridge is disposable within the filter housing, and a plunger pump is coupled at a second end of the filter housing. The plunger pump includes a housing having a rigid portion and a flexible portion. The flexible portion has a plunger-engaging portion for coupling to the plunger of an actuator. The flexible portion selectively movable with respect to the rigid portion via the actuator. The filter cartridge can be a hollow fiber filter. The plunger pump can be configured to induce alternating tangential flow in at least a portion a the assembly. The fluid filtration assembly can be provided as a disposable single-use arrangement.

A double membrane for a diaphragm pump for fluidizing, covering and conveying dusty products, such as, for example, pulverized coal, with the aid of an inert gas at pressures of up to 7 MPa, the diaphragm pump having a porous, curved loosening element made from aluminum, monitors and ensures the membrane tightness by designing the double membrane with an integrated pressure sensor for monitoring leakages. A hermetically tight separation between the hydraulic chamber and dust chamber of the diaphragm pump can therefore be ensured and damage to the membrane can be promptly identified. Complicated repair and cleaning measures of the entire dust system or hydraulic system in the event of membrane damage are prevented and the tightness of the membrane is maintained during the incident. Particular refinements relate to the composition of the individual membranes and the interaction thereof.
