Listing ID #7056374

#Antlia "aodd pump" refers to an air-operated double-diaphragm pump, which is a type of positive displacement pump. The term "negative suction capacity" is not commonly used in relation to #AODD #pumps, but I can provide information on their suction capabilities.

#AODD pumps are designed to handle a wide range of fluids, including viscous, abrasive, and shear-sensitive materials. They operate by using compressed air to alternate the movement of two #diaphragms, which creates a #pumping action.

When it comes to #suction, AODD pumps generally have good #self-priming #capabilities. This means they can create a #vacuum in the suction line and draw fluid into the pump without the need for additional priming. However, their suction lift capacity is limited compared to #centrifugal pumps.

The maximum suction lift of an AODD pump depends on various #factors, such as the pump's #design, #size, and the specific #fluid being pumped. Typically, AODD pumps can handle #suction lifts of up to around 20 feet (6 meters) when #operating under ideal conditions.

It's important to note that the suction lift capacity can be influenced by factors like fluid #viscosity, #temperature, suction line diameter and length, and the presence of any suction line restrictions or #valves. These factors can affect the pump's overall #performance and #efficiency.
