What is a characteristic of diaphragm pumps?

Diaphragm pumps are designed to maintain a consistent output flow across a range of operating pressures. This characteristic is due to the way the diaphragm flexes, which allows it to push the fluid with relatively little variation in flow rate, even as the pressure on the discharge side increases or decreases. This feature makes diaphragm pumps particularly useful in applications where precise flow rates are necessary, irrespective of changes in back pressure.

The ability to provide constant output regardless of pressure is essential for many industries, including those dealing with chemicals, wastewater, or other fluids that require careful management of flow rates. This reliability contributes to their popularity in various aquatic pest control and other applications since it ensures that the treatment is applied uniformly.
