Triplex High Pressure Pump

A triplex piston pump is a reciprocating positive displacement pump that uses only three pistons. This type of pump is often used for high pressure applications e.g. hydraulic systems. Due to its robust design, it is capable of pumping high viscosity fluids and fluids which contain solids.High pressure pumps mean those pumps with a conveying height of approx. 200 to a maximum of 1200 metres. These are particularly needed in high-rise buildings, for which the usual pressure is no longer sufficient to supply the entire building.The advantages of triplex PD pumps lie in their high efficiency, their ability to generate high pressure and to produce constant volume irrespective of the pressure. Consequently, where an application demands controlled variable flow, they are eminently suited to variable speed drives.
