These pumps are compact and require minimal packaging. They are suitable for courier shipment & air freight.

About Versa-matic

The brand's catalogue includes metallic / non-metallic bolted, clamped, high pressure, centrifugal & 3A hygienic diaphragm pumps, leak detectors, level controls and more. Versamatic diaphragm pumps are designed for continuous pumping of fluids, providing a non stalling performance. These pumps are ideal for filling moulds, pigment & slip gaze transfer, dewatering, latex transfer and filter press feed applications. They have bolted / clamped construction for preventing fluids from leaking out under high pressures. These FDA compliant pumps feature a modular pilot assembly for eliminating operational complexity while ensuring performance consistency. The bolted / clamped construction also enables pumping operation in fully submerged conditions.

Versa-matic Competitive Advantages

FUSION Technology

FUSION Technology

Versamatic FUSION Technology features an oversized integrated plate on the diaphragm for supporting it throughout its dynamic motion. The deflection ridges eliminate the chances of radial cracking and flex points. Their backup ribs guide and support the pump's diaphragm with each flex. These diaphragms have no centre hole, ensuring leakage-free ope...

VERSA-DOME Technology

VERSA-DOME Technology

The technology's dome shape allows the diaphragm to roll and spread the wear throughout the face of the diaphragm. The absence of complex angles eliminates any wear / stress points on the diaphragm. The technology's low start-up pressure minimises diaphragm stress. The dome-shaped surface delivers full stroke with maximum fluid displacement, thus c...

reating a high flow rate with minimum strokes. Their flexible design makes these diaphragms invertible and enables installation without pry bars or special tools.

VERSA-RUGGED Technology

VERSA-RUGGED Technology

These diaphragms have oversized outer plates, minimising the exposure of the diaphragm to solids in fluid. They are ideal for positive suction conditions & creating high suction lift. The support offered by large diaphragm plates increases the durability & flex life of the diaphragm.

Frequently Asked Questions

How to choose a diaphragm pump?

Various factors, such as fluid type, flow rate, pressure, fluid viscosity and temperature, should be considered while choosing pumps.

How to control the flow rate on these pumps?

Filter regulators can be connected on the air inlet side to increase or decrease the flow or dial the pressure on the pumps.

How much air do Versamatic air-operated pumps need?

These air-operated diaphragm pumps can operate on various air pressures (up to 125 psi). However, if the pressure drops or is obstructed, the pump loses effectiveness.

How to identify leaks on air operated diaphragm pumps?

Most common reasons like flooded suction and weakened diaphragm can cause leaks in Versamatic pumps. Flooded suction is caused by excess downward pressure into the pump. This excessive pressure causes leaks at bolt holes. Also, dry running the pumps over excessive periods causes the diaphragm to weaken over time, resulting in frequent leakages.

How to prevent the pump's suction line from clogging?

Dirt & debris buildup causes the suction line to clog. This can be prevented by installing an inline filter on the pump's inlet side. This filter prevents solids from entering the suction line.
