SP100 FEATURES
What started as a seed of an idea to create a revolutionary new
process pump has evolved into the most advanced air-operated
diaphragm pump on the market. Introducing the SP100 Series
Air-Operated Double Diaphragm Pump. It’s grown into something big!

In a grueling industrial process

environment, your diaphragm
pump needs to perform day after
day, providing years of long-lasting
performance. The SP100 Series
Air-Operated Double Diaphragm
Pump can be configured in materials
that are resistant to industrial
chemicals and proven to provide
complete compatibility coverage
for a wide range of fluids. With
its extensive list of features, the
SP100 Series outperforms the
competition time and time again.

CERAMIC AIR VALVE

The innovative, patented,
non-centering ceramic QuikFlow®
air valve design provides an extremely
fast trip-over, resulting in a 60-percent
reduction in pulsation.

FOOT MOUNT
An industry-standard foot mounting
configuration retrofits into most
existing mounting plates.

UNIQUE DIAPHRAGM CONSTRUCTION

Long-lasting diaphragm construction
means a consistent performance and
a longer operating life.

ä The no-pinch clamping hinge minimizes

wear, increases life of the diaphragm, and
provides a uniform seal that won’t leak.
ä Large, reinforced piston backer plate
maintains diaphragm surface area and
improves flow performance, especially
with higher-viscosity fluids.

BALL CHECK AND SEATS

ä Matched elastomer ball and seat
sets provide tighter seals.
ä Resulting in better suction lift
(both wet and dry).

SANTORENE®: This diaphragm is an excellent choice as a low-cost alternative to

PTFE in many acidic and caustic applications such as sodium hydroxide and sulfuric
or hydrochloric acids. Santoprene offers excellent abrasion resistance and durability
at a cost comparable to neoprene.

HYTREL™: This diaphragm exhibits excellent abrasion resistance, flex life, and
durability. Excellent for applications involving petroleum/oil-based fluids such as
leaded gasolines, fuel oils, hydraulic oils, kerosene, turpentines, and motor oils.

PTFE: This diaphragm is an excellent choice when pumping highly aggressive fluids
such as aromatic or chlorinated hydrocarbons, acids, caustics, ketones, and acetates.
Sotera’s PTFE diaphragms are backed with Santoprene to enhance flex life.
