YAMADA Specialty Pumps: Purpose-Built Solutions for Challenging Pumping Applications

Industrial processes often involve applications that go beyond the capabilities of conventional pumps. Whether transferring fine powders, emptying chemical drums, or pumping wastewater containing solids, these demanding tasks require equipment designed specifically for the job.

YAMADA Specialty Pumps extend the proven reliability of YAMADA's Air-Operated Double Diaphragm (AODD) technology with three purpose-built solutions engineered to improve safety, efficiency, and productivity in specialized applications. Each pump is designed to solve a unique material handling challenge while delivering the benefits of compressed-air operation, low maintenance, and dependable performance.

Three Specialty Solutions, One Reliable Platform

Powder Pump – Clean and Efficient Powder Transfer

Designed for the pneumatic transfer of low-density dry powders, the YAMADA Powder Pump provides a cleaner alternative to conventional conveyors and augers. It minimizes dust generation, simplifies installation by eliminating electrical requirements, and helps create a safer working environment.

Suitable for materials including:

• Diatomaceous earth
• Silica
• Powder coatings
• Toner
• Carbon black
• Calcium carbonate
• Medical and agricultural powders

Depending on the model, transfer capacities range from approximately 200 kg/h to 1,500 kg/h, making it suitable for various manufacturing processes.

Drum Pump – Safe Liquid Transfer from Drums

The YAMADA Drum Pump is designed for direct installation on standard drum containers, enabling safe, convenient transfer of industrial liquids without manual pouring.

Ideal for handling:

• Chemicals
• Solvents
• Fuels
• Oils
• Paints
• Cleaning fluids

Its compact air-operated design makes it easy to move between drums while reducing spills, product waste, and operator exposure to hazardous liquids.

Flap Valve Pump – Reliable Pumping of Solids-Laden Fluids

For wastewater, sludge, and muddy water containing solids, the YAMADA Flap Valve Pump offers a robust solution. Its specially designed flap valve allows solids of up to 30 mm to pass through while reducing the risk of clogging.

Key capabilities include:

• Maximum flow rate up to 600 L/min
• Self-priming operation
