An Overview of
Positive Displacement Pumps
Gain valuable insight into the benefits of positive displacement and selecting the right pump for your application.
Positive displacement pumps are designed to capture a certain amount of fluid and transfer or displace it in one direction. These pumps have a very specific action – to push fluid out in a controlled amount for accurate dosing or treatment. By design, they are less susceptible to flow changes based on system pressure.
This increases the level of accuracy and dependability of flow rates. Download our Milton Roy white paper which gives valuable insight into the benefits of positive displacement and selecting the right pump for your application.
Milton Roy offers a range of positive displacement pump technologies designed to meet diverse industry needs.
Positive displacement technology differs from other pump technologies such as centrifugal pumps. A centrifugal pump’s reliability diverges with increased pressure. The discharge side of the pump assembly begins to pump less fluid until it gets to the point where it can’t pump against the pressure and it simply recycles the fluid. A centrifugal pump’s purpose is primarily as a mover of fluids, but is not generally tied to repeated controlled injection, whereas a positive displacement pump will always continue operating at the same volume.
