RUBASIA RUBBERTECH’s rubber diaphragm is a flexible membrane, often circular, that acts as a dynamic seal to separate two chambers and prevent the mixing of liquids, gases, or other substances. It works by moving or flexing in response to pressure differences while maintaining a fluid-tight seal. Diaphragms are used in various industrial applications, such as pumps, valves, and control devices. 

 

Key functions and characteristics 

• Sealing: Prevents the unwanted transmission of liquids or gases between two places.
• Barrier: Separates two different mediums (e.g., a gas and a liquid) from mixing.
• Movement: Flexes or moves under pressure, enabling it to operate pumps or open and close valves.
• Durability: Designed to be tough and withstand repeated flexing, temperature, and contact with chemicals.
• Construction: Can be made from various rubber materials like neoprene , EPDM, or nitrile and may be reinforced with fabric for added strength. 

 

Common applications 

• Pumps: Used in diaphragm pumps to move fluids.
• Valves and regulators: Employed in control valves and regulators to manage flow.
• Automotive: Found in components like carburetors and fuel pumps.
• Breathing apparatus: Used in some breathing equipment to manage airflow.
• Metering: Utilized in gas and fuel metering equipment.
