Fluid Compatibility One of the best things about the QBY diaphragm pump is how many different fluids it can handle. From strong acids to thick slurries, it takes them all in stride. The secret is the material selection — match the pump material to the fluid, and you’re good.
Material Options • Polypropylene (PP) – good for most acids and alkalis • Aluminum – lightweight, suitable for oils and fuels • Cast iron – tough, handles abrasive slurries • Stainless steel 316 – best for corrosive and food-grade liquids
