Why use a Rocking Piston pump? Typical Applications

The rocking piston combines the best characteristics of piston and diaphragm air compressors into a small unit with exceptional performance. Pressure to 175 psi, 12, 0 bar. Units as light as 7 pounds 3.2 kg. Tank-mounted units, DC powered models. AC motors to match North American, European and worldwide power supplies. Because Gast ROC-R pumps are oil-free, they are ideal for use in applications in laboratories. Hospitals and the food industry where oil mist combination in undesirable. These pumps are made to stand up through years of use. The piston rod and bearing assembly are bonded together, not clamped; they will not slip, loosen or misalign to cause trouble. 6 Oxygen Concentrators 6 Beverage Dispensing 6 Body Fluid Analysis 6 Automotive Suspension 6 Dental Vacuum Ovens 6 Vacuum Frames 6 Core Drilling
