We began our journey 40 years ago in Kungälv, a small town on the Swedish west coast, as a family company with an ambition to one day become a global player on the pump market. Since 1980, we have taken pride in delivering a wealth of knowledge and passion for pumps to the industry, whilst supplying a wide range of premium products for various industrial applications. Over the years, the company has developed into a global Tapflo Group with branches and distributors present in nearly every region of the world. One thing did not change - we are still a family company. Our solutions are designed...

Tapflo diaphragm pumps » Working principle | Fast Facts | Features & Benefits Working principle Tapflo diaphragm pump is driven by compressed air. Two diaphragms are working simultaneously to prime and push the liquid through the pump system. Valve balls work as check valves to let the liquid through in the right direction. During each cycle the air pressure on the back of the discharging diaphragm is equal to the head pressure on the liquid side. Tapflo diaphragm pumps can therefore be operated against a closed discharge valve with no adverse effect to the life of the diaphragms. Suction One...

Tapflo diaphragm pumps How to install Tapflo pumps Tapflo Pumps are flexible and easy to install. The in- and outlet ports can rotate 180° to fit your piping system (PE & PTFE and metal series pumps). Flooded The piping system is designed with a positive suction head. This is the best way of installation where it is necessary to completely evacuate all liquid from the container, or where viscous (thick) products are transferred. Self-priming The Tapflo pump is designed to pull a high vacuum. It is able to evacuate an empty suction pipe without any damage to the pump. The suction lift is up to...

Tapflo diaphragm pumps » Key components Tapflo diaphragms are of composite construction, superior for continuous heavy duty service, with a completely smooth surface in contact with the liquid. This results in no leak through and a diaphragm which is easy to keep clean. The diaphragms are available in various materials and colours to suit any requirements, they are made from EPDM, NBR, FKM, PTFE, PTFE TFM 1705b, EPDM white, PTFE with white EPDM back, NBR white. An advanced process of preforming, curing, trimming and finishing results in a long life composite diaphragm that will last for many...

Tapflo diaphragm pumps Ball check valves The Tapflo pump is fitted with four check valves, making sure that the liquid is transferred in the right direction through the pump. The ball type valve is the most simple and reliable valve design. It has a good sealing capability and is easy to keep clean and to replace if necessary. The ball valve materials are available in EPDM, NBR, PTFE, PTFE TFM 1635, PE1000, FKM, PU, Ceramic, SiC, AISI 316L to suit any kind of liquid. Flap valves (Sanitary pumps) Flap valves are used for pumping liquids containing big solids without damage. Tapflo flap valve pumps...

PE & PTFE series » General | Typical applications PE & PTFE series pumps Tapflo pumps made from polyethylene (PE) or polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) are suitable for handling almost any kind of liquid whether it is viscous, chemically aggressive or with solids. Polyethylene pumps Polyethylene (PE HD) has a superior wear resistance which is 6 - 7 times better than for polypropylene (PP).This fact makes the pump suitable for handling abrasive slurries etc. PE is resistant to most kind of aggressive chemicals such as concentrated acids and alkalis. Maximum liquid temperature is 70°C. Tapflo uses...
