HYDRAULIC DIAPHRAGM CONTROL USING A SOLENOID VALVE
A diaphragm pump includes a pumping chamber for pumped fluid and a hydraulic chamber. A diaphragm has a pumping chamber side and a hydraulic chamber side. The pumping chamber side of the diaphragm is proximate the pumping chamber and acts on the pumped fluid. The hydraulic chamber side of the diaphragm is proximate the hydraulic chamber. A plunger is in fluid communication with the hydraulic chamber and acts on the hydraulic fluid, which acts on the diaphragm. A plunger driver imparts reciprocal motion to the plunger. The pump includes a sensor assembly sensing position and direction of the plunger and sensing position of the diaphragm. By sensing the position of the diaphragm, hydraulic fluid flow is controlled by a control single valve.
A positive displacement pump includes at least two pumping chambers and associated plungers. Each plunger is driven by an associated variable speed motor, such as a stepper motor, in a reciprocating motion. The stepper motor varies speed during each stroke of the plunger. A controller controls speed and direction of each stepper motor. Each stepper motor is coupled to a leadscrew having an associated guide rod mounted on the leadscrew to move along the leadscrew as the leadscrew rotates and actuate an associated plunger. The controller varies the speed, displacement and duration of the stepper motors' steps to maintain a constant outflow without pulses.
