The diaphragm liquid pumps are based on reciprocating displace-
ment pump technology. The elastic diaphragm (
4
) is moved up and
down by the eccentric (
5
) and the connecting rod (
6
). In the down-
ward stroke it aspirates the medium to be transferred via the inlet
valve (
2
). In the upward stroke the diaphragm pushes the medium
out of the pump head via the outlet valve (
1
). The diaphragm
hermetically seals off the working chamber (
3
) from the pump
drive (
7
).
