KNF NF2.35 Series Diaphragm Liquid Pump

Needles and similar diagnostic components need to be cleaned every time they handle different reagents or samples. KNF's liquid diaphragm pumps are essential for keeping them clean. Diagnostic equipment frequently uses needles for the administration of reagents and the transfer of sample specimens to perform important diagnostic tests. These needles must be thoroughly cleaned to avoid cross-contamination and eliminate the risk of false positive test results. However, this process can be surprisingly challenging. To completely clean the needles, it is necessary to force cleaning solution through them at a sufficiently high flow rate to remove all residues.

In food service applications, a large number of commercial dishwashers are relied upon to ensure smooth operations and customer satisfaction. Diaphragm pumps are key to effective commercial dishwashing, playing various roles in these systems. Diaphragm pumps are a powerful option for introducing rinse aids, detergents, and sanitizers into commercial dishwashers. Typically, rinse aids and sanitizers are diluted with water before being sprayed onto dishes, while detergents are introduced directly into the machine. Because the pressure required to discharge these into a standard water pressure line is high, commercial dishwashers need to rely on powerful pumps.

Understanding pump cavitation is essential for maintaining pump performance. I will explain the causes of cavitation, its effects, and measures regarding system efficiency, lifespan, and media integrity.
